    Hey everyone! Starting next Wednesday (October 4th), all future Hidden Stories will be migrating to a new, separate channel for clarity and simplicity. All of the current stories will still remain up on this channel, but all new videos moving forward will be posted on the new "Hidden Stories" UA-cam channel here: www.youtube.com/@hiddenstoriesYT. If you want to continue keeping up with the weekly stories and my Hidden Stories series, subscribe to this new channel ✌

    Amazing that this mother & father spent all that time and money, over two decades on billboards and private investigators, to find the answers about their five missing children. Never giving up til they passed away, then handing that torch onto their other four children is an incredible act of parental love and dedication and devotion. What an amazing and incredible story.

    I had a house fire 5 years ago due to electrical issues that the seller lied about. I am lucky that we didn’t die, and that BOTH dogs survived. They knocked down the door and escaped.

      @@SonjaHamburg 1. What "lire" are you exactly talking about, all these information can be accessed in wikipedia. 2. You probably haven't even researched about this topic, so why are you trying to criticise someone who has at least knowledge about this specific case. 3. "Easy money", if you really wanted to insult a creator who obviously took time to make his videos, at least say exactly which part of the story was misrepresented or what your interpretation of the story is. Stop resorting to this lazy insults, also, spend your time doing more valuable things instead of sitting in your couch at home and vent out your frustration on youtube. You have no right to say that the creator hasn't done "research". Maybe do it yourself and be surprised at how much we all don't know. I am not trying to imply that I am "all knowing" about this case and I am not saying this case isn't entangled in a web of consipracies, but we should respect the creator's efforts and be responsible with our words in the internet.

    Oh, I remember....the unusual number of children clued me in. The missing children were not found in the remains of the fire; it was believed they had been kidnapped. I can' imagine going through the twin horrors of thinking they had burned to death, then realizing they had been taken away forever...by SOMEONE. It had to be someone who KNEw the couple. You don't come to burn down a house, and decide to take several of the children on a whim. It as planned around that.
