Podcasts about disappearances

A family's day at Sydney's Luna Park ended in flames when a Ghost Train fire killed seven people—including six children—but the last photograph taken before the tragedy has sparked theories of something far more sinister than an accident.IN THIS EPISODE: Some of the most unsettling of urban legends can take place in some of the happiest places on earth. Ghostly children swinging in a playground, phantom-like warriors coming out at night in beautiful Hawaii, but there's one I never heard of until just this morning that I had to look up… it has to do with a boy, a theme park, and a man with horns, (Damien and the Horned Man) *** In 1944 Dorothy Forstein came home from shopping and was attacked by an intruder, beat within an inch of her life. Nothing was stolen, no fingerprints left, no clue as to how the person entered the house to begin with. Dorothy recovered from her injuries… but years later she found her grim fate wasn't done with her. (The Disappearance of Dorothy Forstein) *** SETI, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence is continually scanning the heavens on the lookout for life elsewhere in the universe. But is it possible that somewhere on another planet out there, those beings are doing the same thing – and could actually be watching us? Scientists say that not only is it possible, but they suspect it could be over 1,000 extraterrestrial space stations are watching our every move! (Are We Being Watched By Alien Space Stations?) *** Eighteen-year-old Ellen Lucas was to be married on October 3rd – but the evening of October 2nd she went out with her fiance, never to be seen alive again. Did a horrible accident destroy the chances of this couple's happy life together? A random act of violence? Or was it something even more sinister? (The Bridgeport Tragedy) *** She seemed the perfect American, even born to a US military doctor, graduating from a prestigious American college, and working tirelessly, doing her part to serve her country as a military analyst. What would cause this seemingly patriotic citizen to become a spy for the enemy?

The other thing that Asita Kṛṣṇa Mahārāja said that I've been thinking about a lot lately, is some of the devotees who say Śrīla Prabhupāda only gave us the ABCs. It hurts my heart. I was here for three weeks. We read the Madhya-līlā, of the Caitanya-caritāmṛta. And if anyone has read that, or read the purports that Śrīla Prabhupāda wrote, they could never, ever say such an offensive thing. Prabhupāda gave us everything, and it's up to us to purify our hearts so that we can understand it. When you read the pastimes in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Kṛṣṇa dāsa Kavirāja speaks about it, "according to the level of the devotees who participated in the pastimes, they could understand or they could see." So Prabhupāda said, and I believe that, and I now believe it even more firmly: 'I have given you everything. Everything is in my books,' if we have faith in that, and we read Śrīla Prabhupāda's books, and we read them together. That was the other nice thing about being here. During those readings, we discuss, we ask questions, we unpack, and it's so helpful for for me, as you know, as as an individual, pretty dull-headed, to hear the realizations and the questions that the others bring up. It's absolutely wonderful! If you have facility in your communities to start reading groups, if you don't already have them, I fully support that, because it really helps us to come close to Prabhupāda, to understand Śrīla Prabhupāda, what he has done for us by taking the time. He didn't sleep much, he traveled the world, and still he gave us these purports, translated these books, managed a movement—a fledgling movement of teenagers and twenty-something-year-olds who had come with no Vedic training, no training at all, pretty much, you know, as we heard about the apple or the date. We didn't, we didn't have the basic training. But everything I have, everything I am, it's Śrīla Prabhupāda's mercy. And I know that many, or all of you feel the same way. My whole life, Śrīla Prabhupāda gave me. So I'm grateful. I have so much gratitude, and I'm working to have even more gratitude, because it's unfathomable what Śrīla Prabhupāda has given me. When I was young..

The more we organize opportunities for everyone to read Prabhupāda's books more thoroughly, more questions are answered, and the more we imbibe Prabhupāda's mood, it's inescapable—and we don't wonder about it. We know directly Prabhupāda has manifested himself as a spiritual hologram right in front of us and spoken to us directly and as intimately as possible—because that's the nature of books. They're miraculous. I'll just make one last point, which is that Śrīla Prabhupāda also wanted us to write. He wrote his books based on the tradition of all the ācāryas, and we're a sampradāya of the book. All ācāryas generally have written and left some literary contribution behind. Sometimes people feel reticent about writing, because they say, “Well, Prabhupāda wrote everything, so we shouldn't write anything.” But you could look at it a different way—and that is, if we don't write, how can we prove what we got from Prabhupāda? At one time, Prabhupāda criticized his colleagues from the other institution he was part of for some time, and asked, “Where are their books?” As Prabhupāda was producing more and more books, he asked, “Where are their books?” Maybe it's not well known, but Prabhupāda strenuously advocated that all of his followers should write. Did you know that? I'll just read you a quote and let Prabhupāda speak for himself. Are you up for this? There's a few here. I took out a few out of many more, just to give a taste. "Formally, all activities were performed in connection with Viṣṇu, but after Satya-yuga, there were symptoms of disrespectful dealings among Vaiṣṇavas. Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura has said that a Vaiṣṇava is he who has helped others become Vaiṣṇavas. An example of one who has converted many others into Vaiṣṇavas is Nārada Muni—a powerful Vaiṣṇava who has converted others into Vaiṣṇavas is to be worshiped. But because of material contamination, sometimes an exalted Vaiṣṇava is disrespected by other minor Vaiṣṇavas. When great saintly persons saw this contamination, they introduced worship of the Deity in the temple. This began in Tretā-yuga and was especially predominant in Dvāpara-yuga. But in Kali-yuga, worship of the Deity is being neglected. Therefore, chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra is more powerful than Deity worship. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu set a practical example in that He did not establish any temples or Deities, but He profusely introduced the saṅkīrtana movement. Therefore, Kṛṣṇa consciousness preachers should give more stress to the saṅkīrtana movement—especially by distributing transcendental literature more and more. This helps the saṅkīrtana movement. Whenever there is a possibility to worship the Deity, we may establish many centers. But generally, we should give more stress to the distribution of transcendental literature, for this will be more effective in converting people to Kṛṣṇa consciousness." Okay, that's the preface. And now it gets to something more specific about writing. "It is certainly not good to write literature for money or reputation, but to write books and publish them for the enlightenment of the general populace is real service to the Lord. That was Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī's opinion, and he specifically told his disciples to write books. He actually preferred to publish books rather than establish temples. Temple construction is meant for the general populace and neophyte devotees, but the business of advanced and empowered devotees is to write books... ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------

Trace Evidence relaunches with the story of Judy Martins.  Twenty-two year old Judy Martins was a bright and talented student attending Kent State University in Kent, Ohio.  During the early morning hours of Wednesday, May 24th, 1978, Judy donned a silly red wig and visited multiple buildings on campus to hang out and joke around with friends.  At approximately 2:30 AM she left Dunbar Hall to go back to her room in Engleman Hall, a little over 1000 feet away.  She never made it back to her room and has never been seen again.  Nearly fifty years later and not a single trace of Judy was ever found, no suspects were ever named and no answers have ever been found.Follow Trace Evidence on Social MediaTwitter --- Instagram --- TikTok --- YouTube --- Like Facebook Page --- Join Facebook Group --- Threads --- Like MeWe Page --- Join MeWe Group --- BlueskySuppport Trace EvidencePatreon --- Paypal --- Cash App --- Buy Me A CoffeeTrace Evidence Merch ShopsTeePublic --- ShopTEPod --- SpreadshopAll Other LinksOfficial Trace Evidence Website --- LinkTreeMusic Courtesy of:"Lost Time"  Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"Echoes of Time" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"Galactic Rap" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/#truecrimepodcast #unsolvedmysteries #coldcase #coldcaseinvestigation #murder #murdermystery #missingperson #missingpersons #truecrimecommunity #mysterypodcast #truecrime #coldcasefiles #truecrimestories #crimelovers #truecrimeaddict #truecrimejunkie #crimescene #justiceforall #missing #crimesquad #podcastcommunity #sleuthsunite #darkhistories #criminalmindset #detective #detectivediaries #forensics #forensicfiles #crimestories #crimepodcast #traceevidence #traceevidencepodcast #criminalinvestigation #justiceforvictims #detectivework #truecrimediscussion #podcastfamily #listenandsolve #crimefans #listentotraceevidence #uncoverthetruth #podcastrecommendations #podcastlove #podcastlife #truecrimeobsessed #followtheclues #cluefinders #podcastaddict #unsolvedmurders #unsolveddisappearances #detectiveatheart #jointheinvestigation #disappearance #vanishing #abduction #gonemissing #upandvanished #pacheco #stevenpacheco #podcasting #crimetalk #crimeanalysis #theories #judymartins #martins #kentstate #kentstateuniversity #ohiocrimeBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trace-evidence--3207798/support.

Steven Kubacki is the author of, "The Disappearance," a book that provides details of his 15-month disappearance between 1978 and 1979 and the bizarre mission he and his friends sought to achieve. Learn more at https://stevenkubacki.com

In this episode, we start with Abducted at an HBCU: A Black Girl Missing Movie a gripping Lifetime film that dives into the disappearance of a young woman at a historically Black college. When a student suddenly vanishes, her counselor refuses to look the other way, uncovering a system that too often dismisses missing Black women and girls. The story is fictional, but its message hits painfully close to home.The film shines a light on how the media and institutions frequently overlook these disappearances. How urgency fades, headlines never come, and families are left to fight alone for attention and answers.From there, we turn to the real-life disappearance of 18-year-old Cleashindra Hall, a decades-long missing person case that deserves to be remembered.Cleashindra, or “Clea,” as her family calls her, was an honors student from Pine Bluff, Arkansas, with dreams of becoming a pediatrician. On the evening of May 9, 1994, she finished her shift working for a local business and called her mother to say she'd be home soon. But Cleashindra never made that second call, and she was never seen again.Over the years, her family has searched tirelessly for answers. There were searches, interviews, and countless leads — yet no arrests have ever been made, and no trace of Cleashindra has been found. Despite the time that's passed, her loved ones have never given up.Like the story told in Abducted at an HBCU, Cleashindra's case reflects a painful reality: when young Black women go missing, the attention they receive rarely matches the depth of the loss. This episode is about remembering her, and about refusing to let these stories fade into silence.Sources: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3odKv1Fin0https://www.the-sun.com/news/11962351/lifetime-abducted-hbcu-black-girl-missing/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Cleashindra_HallBlack Girl Gone: The Disappearance of Cleashindra Hall https://www.kark.com/news/local-news/family-of-cleashindra-hall-still-hopes-for-answers-nearly-30-years-after-her-disappearance/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09Z4loP9G5ghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63MC4OwNYmEhttps://news.morehouse.edu/professor-avery-o.-williams-86-writes-screenplay-for-lifetime-original-abducted-at-an-hbcu-a-black-girl-missing-moviehttps://www.fox16.com/news/only-on-fox16-transcribed-interviews-from-larry-amos-following-teenagers-disappearance/https://www.yahoo.com/news/family-cleashindra-hall-still-hopes-221635171.htmlSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's a crisp November night in upstate New York. A 12-year-old boy named Jaliek Rainwalker spends the evening at a house in the small town of Greenwich. By morning, he's gone. And no one has seen him since.Jaliek's story is one of resilience and heartbreak — a child who had already survived a turbulent childhood, moving through foster homes before finally being adopted, only to vanish under mysterious and troubling circumstances in 2007.His disappearance sparked years of questions, searches, and speculation. Was Jaliek a runaway, as his adoptive father claimed? Or was something much darker at play?WHERE IS JALIEK RAINWALKER?**********************Thank you for supporting our mission.  Join us on Patreon & help support families of the missing---  www.patreon.com/wherearetheypodcastFollow us for news and case updates on:Facebook:  www.facebook.com/wherearetheypodcastInstagram: @thewherearetheypodcastEmail me: Canwefindthem@gmail.com

Dr. Phil unpacks new theories, forensic clues, and human behavior behind one of America's most haunting cold cases, the mystery of Maura Murray's disappearance. In Part Two of Into Thin Air: The Mysterious Disappearance of Maura Murray, Dr. Phil continues his deep dive into the disappearance of Maura Murray, the 21-year-old nursing student who vanished after a crash on a desolate New Hampshire road. As the investigation unfolds, Dr. Phil analyzes the critical mistakes and psychological blind spots that defined the case, from the K-9 scent trail that stopped in the middle of the road to the chilling "tandem driver" theory that suggests Maura may not have been alone. Dr. Phil explores how fear, guilt, and denial can shape both police decisions and public perception and why families, investigators, and online sleuths often rewrite reality to escape the discomfort of not knowing. Twenty years later, the evidence may be cold, but human behavior still tells a story.
