Joan Bernal's episodes originally aired in October 2020. In December of 1988, Joan Bernal, her husband, and their children had plans to leave their home in Joliet, Illinois, and head to Texas to visit her husband's family for the holidays. Things didn't go as planned, and they weren't able to bring Joan's children from a previous marriage due to custody issues. According to Joan's husband, Gil, they decided to make the trip anyway. He later told investigators that Joan became upset during the drive and that he dropped her off near a bus stop in McAlester, Oklahoma, and gave her cash so she could return to Illinois. The plan, he said, was for Joan to pick up her other children and then fly to Texas to meet them. Joan Bernal has never been seen or heard from again.Over the years, this case has been marked by conflicting accounts, unanswered questions, and lingering uncertainty about what truly happened to Joan. Investigators and Joan's loved ones have wrestled with whether she could still be alive, whether foul play was involved, and why no verified trace of her has ever surfaced.Update:In December 2025, 37 years after Joan Bernal was last seen, the case took a significant turn. A Will County grand jury returned a sealed indictment charging Joan's husband, Gilbert Bernal, with first-degree murder in connection with her disappearance.

She learned early that not all silence is empty.From a woman in black and white sitting in a cemetery, to a nun who vanished mid-stride on a familiar street, her life has been marked by quiet encounters that never behaved like traditional hauntings. Cats appeared after death. Footsteps echoed where no one stood. Shadows moved, then retreated when noticed.What unsettled her most wasn't the activity — it was how selective it was.Some moments felt gentle. Familiar. Almost polite. Others carried weight, warning her without words to keep her distance. Over time, she realized the experiences didn't affect everyone the same way. Her sister recoiled in fear. She felt something closer to recognition.#TrueParanormal #QuietHauntings #SharedSightings #UnseenWorld #SensitivePerception #ParanormalExperiences #GhostStories #ThinPlaces #LivingWithTheUnexplained #Paranormal #HauntingsLove real ghost stories?

The voyage started just like any other. The cargo ship SS Cotopaxi is making another journey to Havana, Cuba, to deliver coal. It's November 29, 1925. For Captain Meyer and his crew, leaving Charleston Port, South Carolina -- it will be the last trip the ship ever makes. Its route ran through the Bermuda Triangle. Two days into the trip, the ship sent out a distress signal. It had got caught up in a strong tropical storm and turned over on its side. Rain gradually filled the ship's hold. Then there was a bright white flash, and the ship disappeared without a trace. All 32 crew members, including the captain, were missing. It seems like a classic case of mysterious things going on in the Bermuda Triangle. But this is just one example out of dozens or even hundreds where ships and planes have gone missing in the Bermuda Triangle. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On June 13, 2016, 44-year-old Amy McHale said goodbye to her mother and left her home in South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Nothing about that moment suggested it would be the last time her family would see her, but it was.In the early morning hours of June 14, Amy called her daughter, Amanda, and left a voicemail. When Amanda listened to the message later that morning, it didn't raise any immediate alarm bells, but when she tried to call her mother back, it went straight to voicemail. In the message, Amy said she was staying at her ex-husband's house, something she did from time to time. At first, no one was overly concerned. Amy was an adult who had her own routines, and everyone assumed she would resurface, as she always had before. As hours turned into days with no word, concern for Amy began to grow. Amy's ex-husband told family members that she had been at his home when he went to bed on the night of June 13, but when he woke up the next morning, Amy was gone. From that point forward, there were no confirmed sightings or clear answers about where she may have gone.Nearly a decade has passed since Amy vanished, and her loved ones are still searching for answers, holding onto hope that someone knows what happened and will finally decide to step forward.If you have any information regarding the disappearance of Amy McHale, please contact the Philadelphia Police Department at (215) 686-3013.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.

He grew up in a quiet country town in Queensland, the kind of place where nights were genuinely dark and every sound meant something. His life was predictable, grounded in routines, old houses, and vintage cars that behaved exactly the way machines were supposed to behave.That predictability was what made the small deviations impossible to ignore.A car door opening with no wind. A radio tuning itself with patient precision. Objects disappearing beneath the house and returning weeks later in places they didn't belong. Footsteps that followed the same path every night, unhurried and familiar, like someone moving through a home they knew well.On the road, it was worse. Tail lights that dipped out of sight where no car could go. Police stops that vanished between headlights. A stretch of highway locals treated carefully without ever agreeing why.Nothing ever escalated. Nothing demanded belief. Each moment hovered just close enough to explanation to remain plausible — and just far enough away to leave doubt behind.#TrueParanormalStory #ListenerStory #UnexplainedEncounters #QuietHaunting #ResidualEnergy #HauntedObjects #PhantomVehicles #UnseenPresence #SubtleParanormal #EverydayUnexplained #Paranormal Love real ghost stories?

Michael McKee was a vascular surgeon trained at Ohio State, Virginia Tech, and the University of Maryland. He held medical licenses in multiple states. He worked at respected surgical practices. And according to two separate lawsuits filed in Nevada, he allegedly left destruction in his wake—then vanished before anyone could make him answer for it.The first lawsuit claims McKee's team left over eight inches of catheter inside a patient's body during a 2023 procedure, requiring emergency surgery. The complaint alleges the defendants concealed what happened and failed to provide truthful medical records. The second lawsuit is federal—a civil rights case claiming McKee sat on a prison medical panel and deliberately delayed an inmate's care until the man suffered permanent injury, including the loss of a testicle.McKee denies the federal allegations. In the state case, no attorney has even appeared on his behalf. And that's because when lawyers came looking for him, Michael McKee had already disappeared. Process servers documented fake addresses, a fax number instead of a phone, and colleagues who said he simply vanished. A judge had to grant permission to serve him by newspaper publication—a rare last resort.Six months after his Nevada medical license expired, McKee allegedly drove from Illinois to Ohio and shot his ex-wife Monique Tepe and her husband Spencer Tepe to death in their home. Their two young children were inside. He's been charged with aggravated murder and has indicated he'll plead not guilty.This is the story of a surgeon who couldn't be found—until he was arrested for double homicide.#HiddenKillers #MichaelMcKee #TepeFamily #SpencerTepe #MoniqueTepe #ColumbusOhio #TrueCrimePodcast #MedicalMalpractice #DomesticViolenceAwareness #JusticeForMoniqueJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Warning, this one is really sad.Pulled over for speeding, no criminal past. Five children and a husband at home. Disappeared. Deported. A broken family left behind. You know why you haven't heard about this story? Because it happened under Obama. Imagine if this happened under Trump. Imagine how many Democrats would fly to Mexico to find this woman and exploit her story.2007. Obama: Americans don't want a situation where illegals get a pathway to citizenship and then several hundred thousand more illegals are let in.Hey Barack, Biden let in about 10 million illegals and now your party is saying that they shouldn't be deported. Crazy right?"Open borders? That's a Koch brothers proposal which essentially says there is no United States... It would make everyone in America poorer... Right-wing people would love an open border to bring in all kinds of people to work for $2 to $3 an hour." - Bernie Sanders 2015"Disrupt. Make them uncomfortable" - Don Lemon in MN after he stormed a church to "protest ICE"Border Patrol agent calls out liberal woman for being performative for the camera, woman eventually apologizes.

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.
