In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro explore how some mysteries don't announce themselves with screaming headlines or dramatic hauntings—but instead settle in quietly and refuse to leave. The episode slips into dark territory with the true and well-documented case of the Hexham Heads—two crude stone carvings unearthed by children in a backyard in 1970s England. What followed were subtle but persistent disturbances: unexplained knocking, moving objects, and a growing sense that the house itself was reacting to something that should never have been brought inside. Investigated by members of the Society for Psychical Research, the case raises an unsettling possibility—that some hauntings are tied not to places but to objects that carry history badly. In the second half, the episode turns from the paranormal to forensic science with the decades-long mystery of Little Miss Lake Panasoffkee. Discovered murdered in Florida in 1971, she remained unidentified for over fifty years despite repeated exhumations, reconstructions, and scientific analysis. Advances in forensic technology finally restored her name—Maureen Lou Rowan—while also revealing how earlier scientific conclusions were quietly skewed by embalming practices of the era. The story becomes a sobering reminder that science evolves, truth is fragile, and identity can be lost far too easily. Along the way, Kat and Jethro weave in observations about human behavior, survival instincts, and the strange overlap between curiosity, caution, and consequence. No jump scares. No neat endings. Just a lingering sense that some things—objects, histories, and unresolved lives—leave marks long after they're buried. If you're fascinated by haunted objects, unsolved mysteries, forensic breakthroughs, and the quieter side of the unexplained, this episode delivers stories that stay with you well after the final sign-off Learn more about your ad choices.

In the days leading up to Thanksgiving 2025, the family and friends of 59-year-old Daniel Davis began to grow increasingly concerned. Dan was known as deeply reliable. His coworkers couldn't even remember him missing a single day of work in decades. Much of Dan's life revolved around his job at 115 Bourbon Street, a well-known music venue in Merrionette Park, Illinois, a southwest suburb just outside the city of Chicago.They soon learned that Dan had been involved in a car accident late on the night of Monday, November 24. After the crash, Dan was dropped off at his workplace, where he walked inside and briefly greeted the two remaining coworkers. In the early morning hours of November 25, Dan was seen walking away from 115 Bourbon Street.Once Dan's loved ones learned about the accident, questions immediately followed. Where was he, and why wasn't he answering calls or text messages? Had Dan sought medical attention afterward? As hours passed without contact, it became clear that something was wrong. Dan was reported missing to the Chicago Police Department, and surveillance footage began to surface.Almost immediately, they noticed something troubling. The surveillance footage was bizarre, but it didn't clearly point to what had happened or where Dan might have gone. When they entered his apartment, they found items left in a manner out of character, deepening the confusion rather than providing answers. The final known surveillance video of Dan was recorded on Wednesday, November 26, around 6:30 p.m. Dan was seen exiting a church in Blue Island, Illinois, a community just south of Chicago. After that moment, Dan Davis vanished without a trace.Despite exhaustive search efforts by law enforcement, family, friends, and volunteers, no further confirmed sightings or answers have emerged. Nearly two months later, what happened to Dan Davis remains a mystery.If you have any information about the disappearance of Dan Davis, please contact the Chicago Police Department Area 2 Special Victims Unit at (312) 747-8274.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

18 years before Sherri Papini shocked the world with her kidnapping hoax, another girl vanished from Redding, California, but she never came home. When 16-year-old Tera Lynn Smith disappeared on a quiet night in August 1998, her family was desperate to find her, but they received far more questions than answers. As I revisit her story, I uncover a lesser-known connection to the Sherri Papini case that complicates an already heartbreaking mystery, and walk you through why one man had every reason to want Tera to never be found. If you or anyone you know has any information, you can contact the Shasta County Sheriff's office Major Crimes unit at 530-245-6025. You can also email them at sheriff@co.shasta.ca.us, and the case number to reference is 98-25673.Connect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.com2202DFCA - Tera Lynn Smith.

On January 12, 2025, 50-year-old Robert Maguire, known to those closest to him as Bobby, said goodbye to his father and boarded a bus in Wilmington, Delaware. His destination was Scranton, Pennsylvania. Those cities are only about 2 to 3 hours apart, but the route the bus Bobby boarded included a stop at the Port Authority Bus Terminal in New York City, where he was expected to transfer to a second bus bound for Scranton. On the other end of the trip, Bobby's cousin was waiting for a call to let him know he had arrived and was ready to be picked up. That call never came.At first, the silence did not raise an immediate alarm. Bobby's cousin assumed he had decided not to make the trip. His family in Delaware believed he had arrived safely. As more time passed with no word from Bobby, those assumptions fell away, and the family realized something was wrong. What makes Bobby's disappearance especially difficult is the uncertainty of where it occurred. Somewhere between Wilmington, New York City, and Scranton, Bobby vanished. With multiple buses, a major transit hub, and time unaccounted for, his last confirmed location remains unclear. This has left his family unsure where to focus their search. One year later, they're still searching for answers.If you have any information about the disappearance of Robert Maguire, please contact the Wilmington Police Department at (302) 654-5151.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Shaun Cassidy is a true creative multi-hyphenate whose career spans music, television, theater, and storytelling. First rising to fame as one of the biggest teen idols of the late 1970s, Shaun signed with Warner Brothers Records while still in high school, released three multi-platinum albums, earned a Grammy nomination, and performed in sold-out venues like Madison Square Garden and the Houston Astrodome — all while starring in the iconic ABC series The Hardy Boys Mysteries. Behind the scenes, Shaun quietly reinvented himself as one of television's most respected writers and producers. His work includes creating and producing critically acclaimed series such as American Gothic, Roar, Cold Case, The Agency, Invasion, Emerald City, and New Amsterdam, which completed a powerful five-year run on NBC and Netflix. In this conversation, Shaun reflects on the courage it takes to evolve beyond early success, what reinvention really looks like over a multi-decade career, and why creativity has no expiration date. He also opens up about returning to live performance in 2020 with his one-man show The Magic of a Midnight Sky, the grounding role family has played in his life, and what legacy means to him now. This episode is an honest, thoughtful look at reinvention, purpose, and the power of staying connected to who you're becoming. In this episode, we talk about: • Rising to fame as a teen idol and navigating success at a young age • Balancing music, television, and public life simultaneously • Reinventing a career behind the scenes as a writer and producer • The creative leap from performer to storyteller • Why compassion-driven stories resonate so deeply today • Returning to live performance after nearly 40 years • The role family plays in grounding long-term success • Redefining purpose and legacy beyond career milestones • Why it's never too late to begin again creatively Connect with Shaun Cassidy: Official website https://www.shauncassidy.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/shauncassidyofficial Learn more about New Amsterdam https://www.nbc.com/new-amsterdam

On December 22 1981 around 1 to 1:15 am, a driver was going down a dark road MINERAL SPRINGS MOUNTAIN ROAD near the town of Valdese, North Carolina. It was a dark, snowy night and there was fresh snow on the ground the night before. They saw that the car had run into an embankment, and that the driver's door was open, as they approached the car, they realized that the car was still running. Next to the car, in a ditch, was the body of a young woman, 19 year old Rhonda Hinson. She was lying on her back with her arms by her side. She looked peaceful like she had been starting to make a snow angel - except for the bullet hole in her chest.

On the afternoon of January 8, 2023, deputies from the Jersey County Sheriff's Office were dispatched to a trespassing call in Dow, Illinois. A landowner reported seeing two men riding across his fields: one on a four-wheeler and the other driving a blue Buick. When deputies caught up with one of the men, he explained that he was searching for his girlfriend, 39-year-old Kaila Vincent Vatole, who had left their residence earlier that day. He said he didn't know which direction she had gone, but he was worried about her and told deputies she might be suicidal.Given the seriousness of the situation, a search for Kaila began immediately. Deputies arrived on scene shortly after 2 p.m., and, with daylight already fading in the winter months, a helicopter was requested to cover as much ground as possible before nightfall. Several other agencies were called in to assist with the search efforts. Deputies went door to door, asking neighbors if anyone had seen Kaila, but no one had. It was as if she had simply vanished without a trace. The sheriff then contacted the Illinois State Police to request an aircraft equipped with heat-sensing technology, hoping it could locate Kaila. The pilot identified several heat signatures, but each proved to be an empty well or a culvert.They began pinging Kaila's phone. A deputy also attempted to call her several times, and that's when it was heard ringing inside the house under a pile of clothing. At that point, investigators realized Kaila had left without her phone, eliminating what might have been their strongest digital trail. In the days that followed, deputies returned to the area to search, but no trace of Kaila was found. More than three years later, what happened to Kaila Vincent Vatole remains unknown.If you have any information about the disappearance of Kaila Vincent Vatole, please contact the Jersey County Sheriff's Office at 618-498-6881.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A Will County Grand Jury returned a sealed indictment on December 9th, Joan Bernal was last seen on that date 37 years ago. Her husband at the time, Gilbert Bernal Sr., is now suspected of her murder at 82-years-old. He was officially charged with first degree murder on Monday January 5, 2026.

In 1903, a man arrived at Leavenworth Prison claiming he'd never been there before — but the staff found his exact double already serving a life sentence inside.READ MY DEEP-DIVE ARTICLE ON THIS STORY: https://weirddarkness.com/williamwest/In May 1903, a convict named Will West arrived at Leavenworth Prison in Kansas. The intake clerk was certain he'd seen this man before — and a search of prison records turned up a card for William West, a convicted murderer whose measurements and photograph were a near-perfect match. The problem? William West was already locked up inside Leavenworth, serving a life sentence. The two men had never met, weren't related, and had no idea the other existed. Their extraordinary resemblance would expose a fatal flaw in the world's leading criminal identification system — and help launch the forensic technique we still rely on today.IN THIS EPISODE: How do you convince people you are innocent of a crime committed by someone who looks exactly like you and even shares your name? It's the strange story of William West and… William West. (Will The Real William West Please Step Forward) *** In November 1638, Dorothy Talby killed her three-year-old daughter. She admitted so when first arrested. But then she refused to say anything when brought before a judge. But then, what would you expect from a woman, which we all know is more easily persuaded by Satan to sin – and women were much more likely to be seduced by witchcraft. At least, that's what people believed in the 17th century. (The Case of Dorothy Talbye) *** It's understood and agreed to by most that while it is a lot of fun to think about, time travel is simply not possible – and will probably never be seeing as we've never met any time travelers. Or… maybe we have? (True Time-Travel Moments) *** Stories of shapeshifters seem to be told worldwide – and the Celtic nations are no different.

Kay-Alana Turner's episodes first aired in November 2023. On March 9, 2023, 27-year-old Kay-Alana Turner left a friend's home in Silsbee, Texas, and began driving toward Austin, about four hours away, apparently to visit a friend. In the days leading up to March 9, Kay-Alana had not been sleeping well and did not seem quite like herself. In the early morning hours of March 10, witnesses in Hockley and Tomball, Texas, interacted with Kay-Alana after she asked if she could sleep in their driveways. By that time, her phone had died.Around 6 a.m., a homeowner in the Holly Creek Estates subdivision in Tomball noticed Kay-Alana's car parked in their driveway, with Kay-Alana asleep inside. The homeowner contacted someone from the homeowner's association and nearby neighbors. As several people gathered around the vehicle and attempted to wake her, Kay-Alana became frightened. When she tried to leave, her car was blocked. An officer from the Harris County Sheriff's Office then broke the driver's side window of her vehicle.Kay-Alana fled first by driving through a yard and across nearby farmland, then into a wooded area where her car became stuck. Deputies pursued her on foot. Kay-Alana ran into the woods, dropping her phone along the way and later removing her shoes, which were filled with glass from the broken window. In the days that followed, her loved ones compared accounts and came to believe that Kay-Alana had been experiencing a mental health crisis that night. Despite extensive searches of the area where she was last seen, no further trace of her was found beyond her phone and shoes.On April 19, 2024, after more than a year of searching, Kay-Alana Turner's remains were found by Texas Equusearch in Montgomery County, Texas, less than 1,000 feet from where her car had been abandoned on March 10, 2023. She was positively identified through dental records. Due to the condition of her remains, the medical examiner ruled the cause of death as undetermined, with the manner classified as accidental, noting no evidence of foul play.In the months that followed, body camera footage from Kay-Alana's initial encounter with Harris County Sheriff's Office deputies was released, sparking concern and controversy. In the footage, deputies were heard making joking and disparaging remarks about Kay-Alana, including comments about her appearance after viewing her identification. The footage intensified scrutiny of the response to Kay-Alana on the day she disappeared and raised broader questions about how law enforcement handles encounters involving individuals experiencing medical or mental health crises.Kay-Alana Turner was laid to rest in November 2024. Her family continues to seek accountability and hopes her story leads to meaningful change, believing that compassion and understanding could have made a critical difference that day.Photo Credit: James Blaign RamboIf you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

January 7, 1998 started like any other winter morning for five-year-old Brittany Lynn Locklear and her mother in Raeford, North Carolina — until it didn't. Brittany, a bright and affectionate kindergartner known for her hugs and cheerful spirit, was waiting for her school bus at the end of her family's driveway when her mother briefly stepped inside the house. In that short moment, Brittany vanished without a trace.  Hours later, Brittany's belongings were found discarded along a rural road; the next day, her body was discovered in a drainage ditch miles from home. Despite hundreds of tips, interviews with witnesses, and decades of investigation, her abduction and murder remain unsolved. Intro music by Joe Buck YourselfHosts Heather and Dylan www.mountainmurderspodcast.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mountain-murders--3281847/support.

Kay-Alana Turner's episodes first aired in November 2023. On March 8, 2023, 27-year-old Kay-Alana Turner stayed overnight at a friend's home in Silsbee, Texas. Her friend noticed that Kay-Alana hadn't been sleeping well and that something appeared to be troubling her. The following morning, Kay-Alana was believed to be asleep when her friend left for work, but as the day wore on, attempts to contact her raised concern. When Kay-Alana was briefly reached by phone, something didn't seem right, and no one knew where she was. Loved ones later learned that Kay-Alana had planned to drive to Austin, about four hours away. Her loved ones began searching for her, but by the next morning, troubling reports about her behavior began to surface. These were accounts her family and friends felt were completely out of character. What was clear was that Kay-Alana was missing, and they needed to find her.On April 19, 2024, after more than a year of searching, Kay-Alana Turner's remains were found by Texas Equusearch in Montgomery County, Texas, less than 1,000 feet from where her car had been abandoned on March 10, 2023.

Missing Sodder Children /// Part 2 /// 893Part 2 of 2 www.TrueCrimeGarage.comIn Fayetteville, West Virginia there once stood two billboards. Billboards announcing a mystery and asking for help. These billboards were up for decades, seeking answers. Passing motorists could easily see either as they wizzed by in their automobiles. This is the information from one of them. At the top was a simple announcement - “After thirty years it is not too late to investigate” Below this text, the billboard featured pictures of each of the five missing Sodder children - Maurice, Martha, Louis, Jennie, and Betty.  The text below the pictures read… On Christmas Eve 1945 our home was set afire and five of our children ages 5 through 14 kidnapped. The officials blamed defective wiring although lights were still burning after the fire started. The official report stated that the children died in the fire. However no bones were found in the residue and there was no smell of burning flesh during or after the fire. What was the motive of the law officers involved? What did they have to gain by making us suffer all of these years of injustice?

Our card this week is Donna Ingersoll, the 10 of Clubs from Minnesota. On a snowy December night 35 years ago, 25-year-old Donna Ingersoll stormed outside and disappeared into the darkness after a heated argument with her boyfriend, leaving behind several important belongings and a twisted web of mysteries investigators have spent decades trying to untangle. Since 1990, Donna's disappearance has weighed on the small town of Wabasha, Minnesota, as the passage of time has produced more questions than answers. But some recent developments have present-day investigators questioning everything they thought they knew about the case — and believing they're closer than ever to cracking it.At the time she went missing, Donna was 4'11” and 106 pounds, had blonde hair and green or hazel eyes, and was last seen wearing boots and blue jeans. She would be 60 years old today.If you have any information about the 1990 disappearance of Donna Ingersoll, please contact Chief Deputy Jim Warren at the Wabasha County Sheriff's Office at 651-565-3361 or email him at jwarren@co.wabasha.mn.us.  iew source material and photos for this episode at: thedeckpodcast.com/remembering-donna-ingersollLet us deal you in… follow The Deck on social media.Instagram: @thedeckpodcast | @audiochuckTwitter: @thedeckpodcast_ | @audiochuckFacebook: /TheDeckPodcast | /audiochuckllcTo support Season of Justice and learn more, please visit seasonofjustice.org.The Deck is hosted by Ashley Flowers. Instagram: @ashleyflowersTikTok: @ashleyflowerscrimejunkieTwitter: @Ash_FlowersFacebook: /AshleyFlowers.AFText Ashley at 317-733-7485 to talk all things true crime, get behind the scenes updates, and more!

The Monster: Police are convinced they have caught the rapist/murderer of an elderly woman, even after DNA evidence is exculpatory. They keep him in custody until an identical incident occurs. Later, the culprit is caught in the act of attacking a teen and brought to justice on several cases shown to have the same DNA. A Cousin's Promise: Twenty-one years after her cousin's death, Cheryl Cowans prods Reynoldsburg, Ohio to reopen the case. Once again, DNA appears to link the victim and murderer, but legal maneuvering puts him in prison for only five years.Check out our holiday deals!!Happy Mammoth: Get your Prebiotic Collagen Protein risk-free AND get 15% off your order with code COLDCASE at HappyMammoth.comQuince: Find gifts so good you'll want to keep them!

This episode originally aired on October 28, 2019. On July 6, 2019, 25-year-old Chance Englebert spent the day golfing with family in Gering, Nebraska. He later left with his wife, Baylee, and their infant son to stop by Baylee's grandparents' house. According to Baylee, it was in her grandparents' driveway around 7:30 p.m. that Chance got out of the car and walked away. He was captured on surveillance video walking in Terrytown and was never seen again. On October 10, 2025, more than six years after Chance Englebert disappeared, his remains were discovered below a steep cliff in a remote area of Scotts Bluff National Monument. The location was approximately three to five miles from where he was last seen on surveillance video in Terrytown, though some route-based estimates of the distance he would have traveled on foot place it closer to eight miles. Authorities say evidence at the scene was consistent with a fall of up to several hundred feet, and multiple forensic specialists concluded his death was accidental, caused by blunt force trauma from a rapid deceleration event. Investigators reported no evidence of foul play. Chance's family, while accepting that a fall likely caused his death, continues to have questions about how he reached that location given the conditions and timeline.If you have any information related to the disappearance or death of Chance Englebert, please contact the Gering Police Department at (308) 436-5089.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
