I don't understand why UA-camrs pin annoying kids.
@@Agent_Aye11 no one cares about ur opinion about how annoying i am, and if im annoying just ignore it
The one where OP addresses if the killer might be reading their post and asks for them to just tell them where her body is because they want her back made me sob unexpectedly. Dear god.
almost crying just hearing it
So real.
It's abhorrent that an AI voice trawling *Reddit* comments can push emotional moments, or try and pass judgement
@@spiral5692 my brother in christ this is his actual voice
@@spiral5692oh no, a real person whose voice is only *slightly* monotonous? ‘Pushing’ emotional moments involving a person missing their likely murdered friend? Perish the thought that someone reading these could have empathy, preposterous, nothing ever actually happens if someone makes a comment about it on the internet, everyone is just an attention-seeking basement-dweller like me!
The woman who claimed her child had been taken by a dingo. Everyone thought she had unalived her own kid and even spent time in prison for this. Then, a few years ago, a hunter found a dingo den, and near the den was some childens clothes that matched what the child had last been wearing. People take the mick now.
I can't believe they convicted her on no evidence! I'm so glad she got out!
@@jamieweatherwalk2752Too late.
Also, she wasn't just convicted, she's still mocked today as an Australian 'redneck' archetype.
@@jamieweatherwalk2752 It's a little less straightforward than it seems. Like, a test done on the family's car showed the interior had been covered in blood... but it turns out that was a false positive, some other substance had set it off. The baby's name was Azaria Chamberlain, for those who want to look it up.
@@corinnsolara9821It was copper oxide dust- the Chamberlains lived in the mining town of Mount Isa in Queensland.
One of the scientists for the defence believed that the chemical used to claim that blood in the car was faulty, so he went to Mount Isa and walked the streets, taking samples in various locations. Every place he tested returned positive, proving that the chemical was faulty.
@@cthonisprincess4011holy crap, that’s actually insane 😳 that poor mother 😢
Timmothy Pitzen. Kid gets taken out of school by mom, doesn't tell dad, goes on the run, mom stops at hotel and unalives herself in bathroom with no kid and a note saying she is sorry for everything and kid will never be found
I remember that story....so very heartbreaking..
@@lydiapetra1211 A lot of people think she killed him.
@@GiordanDiodato That's what I think too...I don't think she sold him..
When I first heard of this case, I hoped she did "adopt him out" however learning of the mom's history, that's very doubtful. I believe she unalived him, then herself to harm the dad and his family.
The mother was so cruel to leave the father with questions forever.
6:13 the fact that this baby's backpack was found buried and wrapped in plastic makes me sick, its obvious someone did something to her bc items dont bury themselves
Fuckin how do you explain fossils? Things absolutely do bury themselves.
@@captainidiot4301fair, but they tend to NOT wrap themselves up in plastic beforehand;)
@@captainidiot4301bro that is not relevant
@@captainidiot4301 False equivalency and a bad faith argument when you know exactly what they meant. Of course things are buried by the wind naturally over time, we all know that. Things don't often wrap themselves in multiple layers of plastic because of the wind. The wind doesn't bury the only known belongings of a missing girl directly around where she was last seen alive. The wind usually doesn't bury things a foot deep in only a few months. And all of these things happening together sure as hell don't happen coincidentally.
But this comment implies you weren't just being contrarian to make a null point, which you absolutely were.
@captainidiot4301 fossils don't "bury" themselves though, things die and fall into mud/bog/silt or have debris build up and decay over many years resulting in the object being covered from the elements and slowly replaced with minerals leaving behind an imprint of whatever originally was covered (usually plants/animal remains). Something being wrapped in plastic and intentionally buried underground is extremely different to an animal naturally being covered after they pass away
That story about the disappearing roommate almost sounds like a psychotic episode that resolved itself. The brain can do WILD things sometimes, and then just... be fine again. I saw a video recently of one guy who has schizophrenia and sees people when there isn't a person. So he got a service dog that greets people. And he'll point and the dog will bark if there's actually a person. And won't if not. So... there's just some guy in his kitchen. That he now knows isn't real. But his brain has put there.
Why is our own mind the scariest thing to exist? I hope the guy with his dog has some sort of sense of security for him
wow that’s sick :0
That's amazing about the service dog. That's really cool.
That’s kinda what I thought… I’m a little surprised OP didn’t get a suggestion to talk to a doctor / therapist or smth about this…
Yeah I was thinking that. Especially since every outside source shows the person not existing. Like, why would the University just delete her records overnight? The only arguable one is that OP had checks from her roommate's parents, but OP could have made those in a psychotic episode as well.
Fetal kidnapping is surprisingly way more common than people think.
The leading cause of death for pregnant women is homicide, unfortunately :/
Most likely killed within the first 3 hours sadly
I was so afraid of this happening, when I was pregnant. I didn’t have any friends & it was only my husband & me. He knew how much of a fear it was for me. It’s scary how often this happens. I’ve heard so many stories.
@@Beautiful_Hope
It's extremely rare
@larapalma3744 yea its one of the rarest things
About little Asha's story, I am 100% sure that someone was not honest with their side of the story. The story of shy, reclusive kid just deciding to go for a late night trip in conditions that would otherwise freak her out to the core? Naah. Someone in that story has dirt on them but they decided to cover it up. Its like some of those Missing 411 stories where kids went missing and the parents come up with stories like "Oh I only took my eyes off from him for a spare second" yeah no, guarantee that they forgot about the kid for solid minutes or more and come up with parts of the story that lifts any speck of possible blame from them.
Something does seem weird about it. Especially how the OP was dead set on making sure the reader knew she was super sheltered, to the point where they were trying way too hard to sound believable. Obviously it's probably the story that they heard and has been told but if that's they way the family told it, I'd be super suspicious.
@hburke45 alternatively, she was abused to be that sheltered and controlled. She just escaped.
@@jendubay3782 Honestly, that is a plausible angle and ties in well with what I said. Painting the family soo "saintly" (Lack of better words, its 3am) made me wonder if they treated that poor girl soo horrible that she decided to flee.
@@jendubay3782 I was also thinking along those lines too. Sadly, if there's abuse in a household and being so sheltered those kids often go unnoticed and if they're being abused, there would be very few who'd notice and report it due to being extremely sheltered 😢
What struck me as odd was that they knew everyone she talked to, and everyone was accounted for
It's highly likely that she was talking to someone who convinced her to keep it secret, or it was the father who got up to check on his children
The disappearance of Louis Le Prince. Believed to have shot the first ever film and is regarded as the father of cinematography. Disappeared after boarding a train in 1890 to return to Paris after visiting his brother in Dijon. He was apparently planning to return to the United States to rejoin his wife and children, publicly premiere his work and file for a copyright for it. He never arrived in Paris and was never seen again after boarding that train. One of the leading theories, and the one I personally believe in, is that Thomas Edison had him murdered to prevent him from patenting his technology first. Especially since Le Prince's eldest son, Adolph Le Prince, was found dead near Fire Island near New York in 1901, having testified as a witness in a case by the American Mutoscope Company which was seeking to annul Edison's patents claiming to have invented the first moving picture, using Le Prince's work as proof that this was not true. Adolph was found dead of a gunshot wound to the head. The 'official' verdict was he killed himself. I think Edison had him murdered as well. The man was well known to have hired thugs to harass and beat his competition and to file countless lawsuits to ruin them. I well believe he was capable of murder.
He did torture an elephant with electricity, I think, killing the elephant to show how powerful it is. It's not that hard to think he would be capable of doing things like that
Edison was a piece of work. He's only remembered fondly because he he had the money to buy good PR.
@@OddballkaneTopsy. She, and possibly hundreds of dogs and cars, were electrōcuted because Edison wanted to destroy Tesla's alternating current.
The bar jona story was very disturbing but…. Was this in the US? Because there IS no statute of limitations on murder and kidnap.
I have heard this theory and totally agree with it.
I feel like burying Asha's backpack in two trash bags was an attempt to hide the scent from police dogs which makes me think foul play. Her story never made sense and bothered me until someone said it's much more likely that she never left her house and something happened there.
how many people claimed to have seen her walking though?
@@fleetwoodmak777 it might not have been her. Who can say?
@@lciav I would be interested in investigating the sources behind the claims but alas, I will wait until someone else does the work
I hate the phrase “intimately abused”….imtimate is a positive word, it’s personal and not to be paired with something so tragic…
UA-cam censors the actual term, demonitizes videos that use it in other words. So I can see why one could use intimate as a substitute.
@@MadameSomnambule And we know *exactly* what is meant.
i dont like it either but blame y0utube for their censorship
right!! Social media allows ao much vulgar content but cencors serious topics for victims smh
I know, but censors! It's why people use alternatives like "unalive" or "corn" or "grape" to avoid UA-cam censors/demonitising their videos/taking them down altogether.
I feel like for the Hong Kong Disney one it wasn't a coincidence the second kid got kidnapped. It would have been really easy for someone to follow the kids around, grab the girl when they got separated, and then just follow the boy back to his parents to so "helpfully" offer to watch him for them.
My father would take us 3 older kids ( 11,12, 6) to the carnival , give us ride tickets and sit on a bench by the carousel. We were told to come back at a certain time for lunch or if we needed more ride tickets.
The Long Island Serial Killer was caught, he was a c-suite officer who murked women while his wife was out of town.
Yeah I caught that one. I’m assuming this post is older but fortunately, his reign of terror is finally over.
@@xXprettyxkittyXx Based on some of the dates, this vid is taken from a 2017 Reddit conversation
Hes only been charged with 4 of the murders. It is possible another killer is still out there

As someone who knows several people who were killed, one being a family member, it makes me grateful in a strange way to know that they're dead. The not knowing would be unbearably worse.
Closure is closure, that's the thing i've learned through my own (thankfully lesser) struggles
The Ariel Castro kidnappings.
Three women go missing between 2002 and 2004 in Cleveland, Ohio.
In 2013, a man was walking through a residential area in cleveland, when a woman started shouting and pleadibg with him through the screen door of a home. he kicked the screen out of the door to free her, and her 6 year old daughter. after freed she called 911 and identified as one of the women who had been missing for 10 years.
Police went back to the home and searched it and after announcing themselves, the other two women who had been missing for 10 years came out of an upstairs bedroom.
Castro had kidnapped them and assaulted them for 10 years, the 6 year old was born while the women were in captivity, and another child was lost to a forced miscarriage due to abuse from castro
Castro was a schoolbus driver during the majority of the time these women were in captivity
"Fun" Fact: The girl who called, her mother went on Sylvia Browne to ask about her daughter while she was still missing. Browne told her that her daughter was dead. The woman died before her daughter was found and freed, and likely went to her grave believing she'd see her daughter in the "afterlife".
I'd love to meet the man who rescued them. He is so humble in every interview I've seen and just seems like a genuinely good person.
One of the survivors wrote a book about the hell she went through called "Finding Me", which I own. I highly recommend it but it's not for anyone with a weak stomach. She describes the things that were done to her and the others in great detail and it's genuinely some of the most heinous, unthinkable shit a person could ever do to another human being. "Depraved" doesn't even begin to describe it.
Dead giveaway.
I remember her call to 911, you can hear a similar kind of thrill of relief in her voice as that lovely diver who found those trapped Thai footballers in the flooded cave. Just, she _survived!_ No greater feeling
I don't remember a lot of details of this story unfortunately, but there's a case I heard about a 2-year-old boy who wandered away from his family while they were on a trip to a national park in the winter. His parents couldn't find him anywhere, and it was snowing, so they reported it and a search team was sent out. they managed to find little footprints to follow, and after about 24 hours he was found, /12 miles away/. Several adults, even the Survivor Man, who's job it is to traverse difficult terrain in inhospitable conditions (like a mountain in a snowstorm). None of them could make the hike that this _2-year-old_ did in about a day, and still no one knows how he got so far away.
Edit: He was okay, p much uninjured iirc.
This case has been labeled as a Missing 411 case, which is a phenomenon of generally similar missing persons cases from national parks and monuments in both Canada and the US.
For the record, the missing 411 thing is bullshit. It's by a guy trying to push a sasquash theory. He lies about a lot of stuff, and he was fired from his job as a police officer for being a con artist.
I know this case, I think, the boy's name was Jared, I think? The official story, IIRC, is that a mountain lion nabbed the kid and brought him up to where his shoe was found, in a location almost impossible to get to.
Was the kid okay in the end?
Was he alive?
@@charaxiphare Yeah, afaik he was uninjured
The highway of tears, the missing person cases themselves arent extra creepy in of itself, but, the way the police is handling it, the way the indigenous communities talk about it, the way *everyone* there knows about it, knows that the family who wrnt missing was involved, how all the men who went missing were involved, the way it seems these missing person cases are entirely racism and no officials will acknowledge. Its truly a horrifying thing
Not to mention when Turd-deau was asked publicly about it he said "excuse me check your gendered language" and promptly disregarded what was said.
@@mariawhite7337 I know this is kind of an old comment, but where did you see this at? If you remember; if not it's OK, I was just curious. I was trying to find it but I can't :(
I live half an hour from Delphi. The two girls killed were found and now years later they have someone in custody. We are all eagerly awaiting the trial to nail the SOB
There are multiple involved, including the Odinist police.
There is way more to that story than simply trying a man and locking him up. More people are involved in the whole thing
RIP Abby and Libby.
He was arrested in 22 and two years later still havent had a trial date.
21:37 humans like that must be put down honestly.
At that point can you even pretend they're human?
@@joshuakuehnYes, honestly. Only humans are capable of being that twisted and disgusting.
People really think that doctors can't tell whether a woman has just given birth or not or whether a baby was born via c-section or not?
For those who are wondering: babies born via c-section have a different head shape since they didn't have to squeeze through the birth channel. Obviously, the non-c-section baby's head shape does change to normal over the next few hours/days. That's why the skull bones of babies are not connected together the way they are in adults otherwise they wouldn't make it through the birth channel.
As for the mother: You can see if a baby was just pushed out there or not. It has to widen significantly after all and it does take time to reset.
49:14 to be fair, I'm constantly typing in stupid incriminating questions into Google like "how much food can someone survive on?"
me as well cause I'm writing a book. LOL
Same.
I think you read a story of what happened to my fiancee's cousin. He was on a trip to Austin, TX. He went for a jog, and then was never seen alive again. They found pieces of him in various dumpsters, and never found who killed him.
Santeria could be exactly what happened to him.
I’m in central texas and never heard of this. Who is your fiancée’s cousin?
Important addition to your comment of "You're most likely to be killed by your spouse"; That's true for WOMEN in heterosexual relationships and for MEN in gay relationships/"situationships", though that stat is so closely followed by "hate crimes" towards gay men that it's really hard to know which one should be first on the list. It's not true for anybody else.
I don’t want to get married as a straight female now…
@@ashleyandanime4815Don't have to actually legally married for a woman to be trapped in an abusive relationship (men, too).
Yes because for men it's themselves, don't leave that part out. If you are explicitly excluding men then think of the suicide rates
Basically you are most likely to be killed by your sex/romance/marriage partner, but only if its a man.
@@ashleyandanime4815 Queer women get into abusive relationships and marriages every day. :( Intimate partner violence can happen no matter the gender. There might be statistics for which demographic is more at risk, but either way, it's a danger for anyone. That's why it's important to not only know the signs, but to have a support system you can turn to if it happens. You just gotta be vigilant, know your worth, set your boundaries, and to always speak to someone if you suspect the relationship is starting to get unhealthy.
Regarding Story 28, Dennis Martin disappearance: this sounded fascinating so I looked it up. It took place in 1969, not 1996. Dennis did not "vanish into thin air from behind a tree," he went down a different fork in the trail. Dennis was also developmentally disabled. The 1500 searchers muddled up any trail the boy might have left, this case is why we now know that smaller numbers of searchers are better. The green "barrettes" (LOL) happened to be doing training exercises nearby and they were welcomed to help with the search because, you know, they had training and gear. They didn't communicate much with other agencies because the military has its own chain of command and procedures.
Mr. Key never claimed his kids saw a bear or a Sasquatch. The "wild man" he saw was a dude who lived in the woods, he saw this dude get into a white van, acting suspiciously, and drive away. His kids didn't see the man, as they were well behind him on the trail. This is supported by newspaper articles from 1969.
The author David Paldives (sp?) has come under criticism for fabricating many elements of "true" stories in his Missing 411 series. Take his writings with a very large grain of salt.
He actually was hiding behind a tree when he went missing. Playing hide and seek with a family they met while there (last name was also Martin weird coincidence, no relation) dad was watching him. He watched him go behind the tree, went missing from there. Horrible story.
Dennis Martin always reminds me of Bobby Dunbar, who went missing in...the 1910s. Same situation - family was camping and he mysteriously disappeared. Months later, the police find a man who has a boy that looks like Bobby, but who's name was Bruce Anderson.
Bruce's mother had trouble identifying him, but Bobby's mother was about 90% sure that was her son. So "Bobby" went home with the Dunbars and lived like that until he died. Just before he died, his daughter I think was curious about this case, so she took a DNA test and...probably to no one's surprised, was actually the daughter of Bruce Anderson, aka her dad "Bobby Dunbar".
The rest of her family were pissed that she would do that, probably cause it meant that the Dunbars literally kidnapped a child from his poor mother. What happened to Bobby has never been learned and he was never found.
13:20 That story is fiction. The tale is by Ambrose Bierce and it titled, "An Unfinished Race." Makes a good story but it did not happen.
I read the book, good story
For what it's worth, there is a similar case where there was a run up a small hill and one of the participants just disappeared during the race. No trace of him or what happened. I think it took place in the early 2000s
@@Bob-cs8gs Michael LeMaitre is the name of the man who went missing during a race in 2012. He went up the mountain, was seen near the top, and never again, no trace ever found.
@@MountainCry There are many such cases in vast mountainous areas. Those cases are worth noting, but I don't believe it's bigfoot, aliens, or other paranormal events. That said, there are a few outlying cases that are true mysteries and show up in David Paulides' books and videos.
@@MountainCry thank you, I could remember his name or when it happens, just remember hearing the story through the Mr. Ballen podcast!
Story 29 is Lars Mittang… he was from Germany. It’s probably one of the cases that haunts me the most still. His mother is still hoping he’ll eventually turn up. I pray for it, I truly do
My mom told me about a kid (7 year boy) from her village. They were around same age. One day he dissapeared. The whole village was looking for him. Week later, he was found in my moms neighbor celler, hidden in the coal. He was intimately attacked and then choked. The man confes everything imediately. Police had to protect him from the villagers. Guards in the prison leaked what he did, and he didn’t last even a year.
Story 1: There was a documentary [maybe 10 years ago?] A reporter went to investigate and the police stated they knew there were a group of body butchers that had set up deeper along the trail. The locals were afraid of the organ retrievers. However the police completely ruled out the girls could have been taken by them. The photos the girls were taking up until 4am were random things like trees and a path etc. The reporter thinks they either used the flash as a torch OR were trying to Document the path they were guided [hunted] on.
The reporter gave the best life advice for travel that to this day I follow. If you are travelling anywhere at all and have a phone with low battery and no signal open your voicemail and record an SOS message identifying key details of your surroundings. Even if your phone is destroyed it ensure that everyone who trieds to reach you *will* get the message and help will be sent.
That Bar Jona guy, there is no statute of limitations on murder. If they have evidence that he did murder someone, he can be charged with murder ant anny time. And a person admitting to attempted murder of a child should have gotten more than just probation.
Also really easy to convict on circumstantial evidence. Like until recently, that's all you really needed.
Yea it sounds suss, best look it up maybe reading will make more srnse

My friend Clinton Nelson has been missing since 2006 after moving to Louisiana. Look up his case, its haunting. His mother is still looking to bring him (his remains) home. I pray we get some answers in our lifetimes. Especially in his mom’s life.
I mean, I hope his mom finds him, hopefully alive. Unfortunately, I think Louisiana is also prime real estate to be murked in because.. You know, the gators. But again, I hope he's found soon, or there's a break in his case. 🙏
@Brit626
Thank you for your kind reply.
I’m pretty sure that’s what happened too, unfortunately. 😞
Not a human case, but the kidnapping of Shergar the racehorse, the last photo of him alive is super creepy and he has never been found. Super sad story
An IRA member reportedly made a deathbed confession. He and his gang took the horse for ransom money. But negotiations broke down, the horse hurt his leg during captivity so the gang shot and buried him. The account of the horses death haunts me however. They used a machine gun and since the horse was optimum healthy, he took bullet after bullet, dying in agony. I hope this guy lied to get attention and none of this happened.😢
WHY DID I LOOK IT UP?! WHY IS HIS PUPIL SO DILATED?!
“Girl in the bathtub” story gives off heavy r/ThatHappened vibes.
Brandon Dawson's remains were found last year, near where he had called 911 from.
Really?
Not a missing person's case, but when I was 14-16 I wanted to move out of my parents house and looked on Craigslist to see if there were any postings. There were 3-4 postings saying you could live in these houses for free, you just had to clean and cook. I never went, but I was naive and it took a bit for it to click that this was more likely a dangerous thing than a good one.
Im an australian and william tyrrel is one of those names i think everyone in australia knows. It’s so sad that he’s still missing, and my theory is that Bill killed him and dumped him in the bushland somewhere. I really hope they find him one day
I really need deeper dives into all of these! This list is insane. All those broken hearts out there just wanting to know where their loved one is and what happened to them. I imagine it would torment me if i lost someone that way.
The Delphi case of Abigail "Abby" Williams (13) and Liberty "Libby" German (14) has been haunting me for quite some time. My heart is so broken for those poor little girls and their families... May they rest in peace.
I’m surprised no one mentioned the yuba county five.
Was gonna say this, I saw Wendigoon's video on it this morning! Very creepy, but also very sad...
I have one. It might have been mentioned, but there was a missing person report during the time when cops were being ambushed. The guy called 911 and gave them his name and location, but the dispatcher didn't send anyone out. The missing man was found dead sometime after and it came out that the cops knew he called them, but they didn't do anything because they didn't think he was really in danger.
Story 43, this is actually not that rare, the government will do stuff like that from time to time if there is a vested interest. I remember one story that a man had his grandmother die, and was donating her body for scientific research due to some illness she had. Ended up the Government took her body instead, strapped her to a chair, and blew her body up, and then returned what few chunks of her body they could fine for burial.
The way my jaw just fucking dropped. Are you serious?!
@@Brit626 Unfortunately yes, looking into it again as been years since heard the story, I was wrong, it wasn't his grandma, it was his mother. She was donated to a research facility and instead of scientific research you'd expect, they strapped her body to a chair, put an Improvised Explosive Device under the chair, and blew her up.
Haven't finished the video so idk if it was mentioned, but the Sodder children. Imo, it's not much of a mystery, but i'll tell it anyway.
Italian family in a small town around Xmas. A while before the incident a guy (i believe the dad's insurance agent?) threatened to burn the Sodder's house down because they don't support Mussolini. Lo and behold, the house burns down. Police and fire department were extremely late to the scene, partially due to the holiday and rural nature of the town (although it's suspected they may have also been Mussolini supporters). They claim it was an electrical fire, despite no evidence for it. They also claimed that the children who couldn't escape died in the fire, despite no remains being found. A fire like that was not hot enough or long enough to melt bones, there would have been evidence. The Sodders were convinved that those children were kidnapped and put up a sign by a highway for their missing kids. Although there were many sightings, they were never found. The Sodders believed that the missing kids were alive even to their graves. Unfortunately, most of the family, if not all of them, who would have known the missing kids, are dead. Hell, given the amount of time that's past since then, the missing kids are probably dead.
I don't believe that it's much of a mystery because to me, it's obvious who did it, why they did it, and why it wasn't taken seriously. The only real mystery is what happened to the missing kids. I don't believe they were killed in the fire, nor right away by their kidnappers. At least, not all of them were. They were kept alive for some time. How long? Who knows. Some of them may have even been gaslit into believing they weren't the Sodder children and accepted new identities given to them. Or maybe they just lived in fear of their tormenters for that long.
Is Mussolini is a politician or a mafia group?

@@jamieweatherwalk2752 Changing one's name is a privilege. It's an expensive one, too.
Once a boy my mom knew as a kid dissapired. We was 7. The whole village was looking for him. They found him week later in the cellar of moms neighbor, hidden in coal. Yeah, child molestor, unfortunately. Police had to protect him from the angry villagers. Other inmates in prison find out what he did from the guards. He didn’t survive even a year.
... W for the villagers that attacked him and W for the inmates for whatever the heck they did to him... Even thought I hate murderers.
It strikes me that while we watch true crime, the only serial killers we really know about are the ones who were stupid enough to get themselves caught….. if there’s could be around 50 serial killers active at the given time in the US, how many of those will never be caught, the ones who are smart enough not to screw up and leave evidence that can identify them
Brought her overies 😖 If I'd seen this in A&E, the "congratulations!" would get stuck in my throat with the puke I was trying to hold down.
The missing family from the 1860s or 1870s is the most scary to me. A family settled in a small community, there was the morher, father, and six children. They had a local boy also staying with them that night to help with the plowing. When the boys father came to get him, as his mother had gone into labor, the farm was in working order but no one was there. Animals were feed, breakfast was on the table, the ox was hooked to the plow. They never found any trace of the family, nothing. It was like they never existed. It happened in a settlement not too far from where the small town I grew up in now stands. Every planting season I heard this story from someone, typically a farmer. They weren't given gravestones until each one would have been 80. No one wanted to give up hope, now all the headstones mark they went missing on one day and died on there 80th birthday. It's creepy.
Camp Roanoke. The People Just Disappeared.
I fully believe they are probably murdered by the native inhabitants
If I remember correctly, the local tribe began having children with some European facial features, so they think the people just integrated with the Native Americans
It's not much of a mystery. They were friendly with a local tribe, the place they had settled was poor farming, and the guy who claimed they were missing didn't return for 5 years and made no attempt to look anywhere but at the island where they were last. As a previous poster said, the tribe began having blue eyes after this.
gray eyes @@treekangaroo.7691
I mean they were left alone for like 12 years or something maybe more. Ppl were supposed to come back w supplies but wars and inclement weather made it impossible.
The scariest missing person case i know is Definitely the over 200 lives lost on malaysia airlines flight 370. The plane went missing at around 1 AM from air traffic control but was able to be tracked by military probes and sattelites. The probes and sattelites show the plane seemingly flying over the south china sea for hours with no real purpose before it dissapeared from both probes and sattelites in an area where its believed to have ran out of fuel. Although this is scary, i have a theory for what may have happened. With how it dissapeared off radar and how it aimlessly wandered for several hours could mean the plane suffered an electrical failure. Without auto-pilot, a way of telling where to go or any way to talk to air traffic control, the pilots lost their way and ran out of fuel, crashing into the south china sea. RIP to all 239 lives lost.
Some of these, you had a great inflection for true crime. Level and even, but also kind of quiet and mysterious. A++.
That said, well, now I'm gonna have some nightmares.
Try living through some of them. Adam Walsh and Steven Staynor were cautionary tales about not talking to strangers and going off on your own. When their TV movies aired, it was required watching on Sunday night.
I also remember seeing Johnny Gosch's picture on at least one milk carton as a kid, as well as Etan Patz. Honestly, I think the milk carton was a far more effective way to showing missing people instead of flyers. Flyers go in the trash; milk you have to look at for at least a week or two.
Not my story but my dad and aunt’s. This was in the late 60’s early 70’s. My grandma and grandpa were divorced due to my grandpa’s mental health issues and drug issues (not 100% sure though) and he took my aunt and dad on what was supposed to be a week long road trip. It turned into a two week long road trip and they went into Canada. My grandma was panicking cause her two kids are somewhere with their father. This was when parental kidnapping wasn’t a crime and so police couldn’t help much. My great uncle and his ex wife found them and were able to get them home. After that, my grandpa only had supervised visitations and that didn’t last long and he went MIA. The last time my dad heard about him was from a nurse who asked him if he wanted to be his caretaker and my dad said no. He passed in October of 2003 and so never knew my dad was having another kid (older sister was born in September of 1999).
That last story is just brutal...
The creepiest I have that did had an impact on my life was the disappearance of Marjo Winkens who vanished on the conneting road between the villages Spaubeek and Schimmert in the south of the Netherlands in september 1975. I was 4 at the time and lived on the road she dissapeared from. Police even came to my parents house for information.
She had gone to a street celebration in a town 10 km further but missed her last bus. She was with a friend who invited her to stay the night over but because she had to work the next day she borrowed a moped from the mother of her friend so she could get home but never got home even though she was almost there. They found her moped and her keys on the road. 70 km up north they found her make up bag, some clothes, an army jacket she had borrowed against the cold ,the helmed and a cut up shoes but no other trace of her. Till now she is missing. A family who lived close to where she dissapeared had heard a scream. She was dressed like a man with the army jacket so with the helmed she must have looked like a man. It is such a creepy story .
About 20 years (1993)later Tanja Groen dissapeared in Maastricht, 20 km from this place but now on a bike. She is also missing till now. We know now that a Dutch serial killer spend his holidays in the area, ut there where also connedtions made with a Bekgium serial killer ( Belgium border is really very close)and they are investigating now her dna samples with the Mark Dutroux case, an Belgium murderer who killed severel children.
This made me never to go out allone in the dark by foot or bicycle. It stayed in my mind fore ever.
If anyone reads this, what is the game in the background
Someone later mentioned it's Exo One.
Asha Degree’s disappearance was and still is a case I think about often. She lived in the same county as I and whenever I drive home, always see the same, single, faded billboard everyone still sees these last 20 years. Her name is actually pronounced with a long A in the first syllable. I don’t normally correct on the web but it’s at least something I can do for her today. 😢
Story 45 gave me the creeps, i would love to read more about this...
My grandma just recently told me this story that happened to our old neighbor. We used to live next to this old guy and his wife, in a somewhat rural town in Illinois. And a couple years after we moved away the old guys wife was in the hospital for a medical emergency. This happened during a winter vortex where temperatures drop severely, which is very dangerous. And so the old guy left his house to see her, but the nearest hospital was in the next town over. He never showed up at the hospital and went missing for a few days, and so everyone went to search for him but they couldn’t find him. A couple days later someone was driving to one of the towns in the opposite direction and stopped a car on the side of the road. Mind you everything was still very cold but not completely frozen over anymore. And they found him, but he had died. Turns out he got lost in the storm and went in the complete opposite direction of the hospital and was almost 2 towns over. And his car ran out of gas and he had frozen to death in his car during the storm.
When I was in highschool a girl went missing, her little sister was one of the younger girls that were in our friend group. She found her sister in an abandoned car that had been there ages, she was in the trunk. It wasn't on the news, it wasn't spoken about, just this poor girl who was sent straight back to class after finding her murdered sisters body in a car boot. I've tried to google it so many times but it's a mystery, if it hadn't happened to someone I knew, I wouldn't believe it. It happened in a very small touristy place that likes to seem crime free, so many awful things have happened there and they are buried so turists don't get scared away. DEP.
Info: according to Lazy Masquerade (awesome UA-camr, check him out, this type of subject is his jam), the Delphi murder of the two young girls has been solved or nearly so, police have the guy who they're sure did it. I don't know more than that, though, this was recent.
LOVE lazy!
Pet peeve. The Texas uni student who went missing wasn’t kidnapped by someone practicing Santeria. It was a practitioner of Palo and his remains weren’t in a boiling pot. They were in an nganga.
They missed one of the creepiest parts of the first case. One of the photos taken in the interim between the first few days and when they got lost was DELETED. Not like deleted off the camera, but wiped completely from the memory card manually. Super creepy.
Oh, hell nah. That's so creepy wtf😭
My friend Tate (construction worker from Okayama Japan) went on holiday to Mexico City on new year 2022/2023 and just vanished. 3 weeks after local friends reported him missing he was found by a police patrol in a ditch, delirious, without shoes or valuables and with a bullet wound in his shoulder. Took 3 weeks in hospital before he could fly home. Hospital did a blood and urine test and found fentanyl. He has no recollection of what happened or where he was and even after nearly 2 years, the memories haven’t returned
Oh my god that last one is horrifying.
I really appreciate that you actually read the stories and it’s not an annoying AI voice, thank you!
Story 5: 1. There was another boy who went missing at around the same time and was also never found. From the same area too. 2. There is no proof he ever visited his mother. 3. The pictures were of someone else and was a horrible prank someone decided to pull.
33:47 Beyond Belief case. It wasn't the scared kid that disappeared in the program, it was his brother. His brother and friends were supposedly bullying this kid for being 'a baby about the monster in the closet'. In the program the scared kid dared his brother to go into the closet. He did and never came out. That was the story.
I agree with the narrator at the end of the video. The way the narrator read all the stories in this, with the almost ASMR-like soft half-whisper-ish-like tone and clear soft sharpness of certain letters of certain words that sends a soft tingling sensation through your body, really did make him feel like a true crime narrator.
Back in 2001 A couple from my high school went missing. They went to the coast in Oregon (Depo Bay) about 45 minutes away to go view the ocean together and were never seen again. Their car keys and wallets were found in their car but their bodies have never been located. They went to stayton high School their names were Kami Van Dyke and Eugene Hyatt
The creepiest for me is the watervale runner. Bedtime stories did an episode on it but the long and short of it was a woman in Australia telling her friends and husband of seeing bright lights on her typical jogging route along country roads. One time, the woman reported seeing the lights again, only to try to come near her. She immediately hid in the nearby forest until the lights left. She kept on her jog since she didn’t see the lights again for awhile, until one day, she disappeared and there was nothing found of her except her running shoes with the socks still inside. It’s the creepiest ufo story I’ve ever heard.
Kassandra Hall from Pine Bluff Arkansas. She was 16 and was having an affair with a doctor here. It’s a small town, and we heard a rumor from a prisoner that she was cut up and fed to pigs.
Jermain “Liz” Charlo, missing from Missoula, Montana since June 16th, 2018. She was 23 at the time. Disappeared three blocks away from where I was living, in a quiet residential area of the city which I had always considered safe enough that young women could walk around after dark just fine. She had last been seen standing in the parking lot of a small local grocery store around 1 am which had been closed for over 2 hours by then (in Montana almost nothing is open at 1 am), and nobody knows why she was there. She had been out with her friends that night bar hopping, but hadn’t had much to drink and everyone who saw her that night said she wasn’t drunk at all. She had been in a good mood and didn’t mention any plans or anything unusual to her friends before leaving.
The neighborhood she disappeared from is pretty sleepy, and not _wealthy_ per se but a nice neighborhood, lots of families with kids, playgrounds, historic homes, a walking trail by the river. Not a sketchy place whatsoever. In fact I had walked to the little grocery store THAT NIGHT just a few hours before she went missing to get dinner, and often walked there after dark. I’m a woman and was only a couple years older than Jermain, and always felt safe doing so along the main road. But I have no idea why someone who didn’t live there would be there so late at night, because the store was obviously closed and that neighborhood is pitch black at night except along the main road where the only street lights are (city ordinance to keep light pollution to a minimum). There’s just nothing there except suburban houses and a closed grocery store.
Jermain had two children who were 1 and 3 years old, was dating a fairly new boyfriend who she really liked (he was cleared of suspicion immediately), and was about to start a new job as a firefighter, which she had been in training for. She wasn’t addicted to drugs or anything like that, and seemed to have her life pretty together. The only sketchy thing in her personal history was her abusive ex, who had been convicted of domestic battery against her, and she had left him. And when the police investigated him, they found that he owned guns he was not legally allowed to have _as a consequence of his domestic battery conviction against her_ and he was sentenced to the maximum of 21 months in prison for the illegal possession…but was never named a suspect.
And not for a lack of trying on the police’s part. They seem to have been doing their best to find her, but have no leads. Apparently her ex had some kind of alibi for the night she went missing, and there are no suspects named in the case, which has since gone cold. Jermain’s family seems to think her ex killed her, as she hasn’t contacted anyone or logged into any of her social media accounts since then, which she was pretty active on prior to disappearing, but the evidence just isn’t there.
Nobody knows what happened to her, and it has haunted me for six years now, knowing that I was outside on my porch smoking that night, three streets away, and didn’t hear anything. She was so close by, I would have heard a scream or people arguing or a car peeling out of the parking lot. But it was just a normal, quiet night in a nice neighborhood that was just across the river bridge from the city police station. She just…vanished into the dark. Her children are growing up without her, and she never even got to put on her firefighter uniform.
I for one will never forget her. I will always wonder what happened.
Story 10 didn’t have much detail but I believe it took place in Bridgewater Nova Scotia early 2000s. Hope the OP will respond.
Not OP, but from the general area. I have no doubt that it is that case, although for some reason they describe the victim having been in ninth grade when she was actually only in sixth. The rest of the story is too precise, however, for me to have any doubt that it is the same case.
The Bar Jonah one made me literally nauseous and so freaking angry, especially the part where after the boy disappeared Bar Jonah wasn't seen buying food for a month. I'm tearing up with anger and frustration, im so sorry for that poor little boy i hope his last moments weren't painful and that he's now in a better place 🙏 😢
Story 13: the guy WAS caught. He kept talking about the case and someone reported him. They tied it to him.
Story 14: the strange noises he was making were likely a death rattle.
Shelly mischavage is probably the most disturbing to me cause literally no one knows where she is other than her husband an a few very high ups in scientology. No one knows if shes heen murdered or beint held captive
The Bar Jonah case is infuriating
I think about Madeline McCann frequently. Her poor family. I hope she’s not suffering. 💔
What game is being played?
Someone later mentioned it's Exo One.
The story where his uncle killed himself after his mother got killed gave me chills
7:22 reminds me alot of the case of the texas woman taylor parker who almost did the exact same thing. a video is on that case on rotten mango’s channel, but it just reminded me so much
not a missing case, but the kendrick johnson case is one that gets me instantly mad when i think about it.
on the delphi girls. im smi local and ik theyre still looking into their killer. however i have heard recently they had some leads that lead to a trial of some sort being set up but jury was iffy due to unbiasedness in the community
Yes, he was moved to a different county for that reason. But the case went international, so it’s difficult. I know Kelsi, Libby’s sister, has been advocating so so strongly for the girls. They deserve justice
I have a story. When I was 11 years old I was walking home from school by the tracks behind a factory when a stereotypical white, windowless van pulled up and the guy did the whole "You mom sent me, she's in the hospital" shtick. I pulled my knife, yes I know I shouldn't have had one with me at school, and probably said something that sounded cool to me at the time but was very likely cringe. Dude took off. There were several disappearances in my area at that time but I wasn't able to tell my parents about my encounter because I still wanted to walk home and play outside each day.
With asha im thinking its a case of being babied and suppressed to point were she had an explosion of rebellion that had her run away? I mean one of the best ways to make people hate you is either abusing them or babying to the point were they feel like a helpless npc.
I used to pick my own scabs and only stopped recently. I did this from age 8 until 24 (I'm 25 now). Even though I did this as well as liked the taste of my own blood I never once turned in to a child murdering cannibal. This is disgusting
story 38: what if there was never a roommate and they just been hallucinating for months. psychosis, nervous break down, brain tumor? idk the brain is weird sometimes. if there is not record of her anywhere maybe thats because she only existed in OP 's head?
One would think that she'd be approached by someone. I dunno. Maybe it was a glitch in the matrix?
In june 2024, Kimberly Ann langwell's remains were found at her ex-boyfriend property, her daughter said she knew the whole time, the murderer was her ex, terry rose.
This girl and her brother got kidnapped by a man who murdered her mother and father and eldest brother, or it may have been cousin. The man gave the kids alcohol, drugs, SAd and beat them. Killed the girls brother and claimed to her it was an accident. Was about to kill the girl later (she is around 9 at that time) and she chooses to be strangled instead of shot, and manipulates the man into thinking she found him as a friend/father figure. Got him to later take her to a gas station, where she used her body language to alert others of her situation. Was tracked by police to a restaurant where they literally had sat down next to a missing poster of her face. The staff and customers worked on distracting the man and keeping him there nonviolently until the police arrived.
Maybe this comment is a little odd, but sometimes the game in the background of the videos looks very interesting. Have you considered putting the title of the game in the description info? Other than that, good job with the voice over.
exo one
Yes, that would be a good idea.
Asha probably ran away, I tried once and her escape was honestly similar to mines
Yeah, but how did her backpack end up buried and wrapped in plastic? That is the part I don't get.
My cousin is a meth addict and was forced to have her babies by family. She didn't care at all. Leaving the newborns at random houses or just skipping town in the middle of the night were just some of the sketchy things she'd do as a mother.
One day, she's found passed out in someone's car outside of the reservation. She had horse tranquilizers in her system and admitted she doesn't know what happened to her 6 month old daughter
Years later she is high off her ass on meth(literally hallucinating) talking of how paranoid she is going to be kidnapped with her son because they stole people for drugs
#MMIP
When I was a child in the 1980s, I used to sneak out of my house in the middle of the night, and go on walks thru my neighborhood by myself. My parents did not know that I did this. Thankfully I never saw or interacted with anyone while on these walks. If I had been abducted while on one of these walks, I think it would have appeared to investigators and my family like I just magically disappeared.
