(The Sausage Maker And His Wife) *** Centuries of worship and tragedy have left behind more than just memories in some churches… they've also left behind spirits, some holy… some not.

William Morgan was last seen in Batavia, New York, in September 1826, shortly after threatening to publish purported Masonic secrets. He was arrested that same month in Canandaigua, transported to Fort Niagara and never seen again, and the local Freemasons were blamed for his disappearance. When a body was discovered a year later, many wanted it to be Morgan's for political purposes. But nearly two hundred years later, the case remains officially unsolved. My guest this week is forensic anthropologist Dr. Ann Webster Bunch. Her book, The William Morgan Affair: A Masonic Mystery in Upstate New York, explores the fate of this polarizing historical figure.

(Orig pub date: 3/28/23) In 1912, four-year-old Bobby Dunbar went missing in the Louisiana swamps. After an eight-month search that electrified the country and destroyed Bobby's parents, the boy was found, filthy and hardly recogniz­able. A wandering piano tuner was arrested and charged with kidnapping— a crime then punishable by death. But when a destitute single mother came forward from North Carolina to claim the boy as her son, not the lost Bobby Dunbar, the case became a high-pitched battle over custody—and identity—that divided the South. My guest, Tal McThenia, first introduced listeners of NPR's This American Life to this case in 2008. A few years later he co-wrote, along with Margaret Dunbar Cutright (the granddaughter of Bobby Dunbar) the definitive book about this historical whodunnit, called "A Case for Solomon: Bobby Dunbar and the Kidnapping That Haunted a Nation".   The author's website:  https://www.talmcthenia.com/ Listen to This American Life's "The Ghost of Bobby Dunbar" here:  https://www.thisamericanlife.org/352/transcript The author's Audubon article:  https://www.audubon.org/magazine/fall-2021/the-strange-true-story-john-williams-and-charles Learn more about your ad choices.

How does someone vanish without a trace in an age of constant surveillance? This week, we're diving into the disappearance of Lars Mittank, a 28-year-old German tourist who seemingly vanished into thin air after a vacation in Bulgaria took a bizarre turn. Following a strange altercation, a troubling series of phone calls, and increasingly odd behavior, Lars was captured on airport surveillance footage sprinting through a terminal, abandoning his belongings, and running into a sunflower field where he was never seen again.  Nearly twelve years later, the case remains unsolved, leaving behind eerie footage, unsettling theories, and one haunting question: what really happened to Lars Mittank?

Washington State is known for its volcanic mountains, isolated coastlines, ancient evergreen forests, deep river valleys, military facilities, and immense stretches of wilderness. It is also the setting for some of the most disturbing unexplained encounters ever reported.In this presentation of UNEXPLAINED WASHINGTON, Lon Strickler examines eight extraordinary cases involving UFO activity, missing time, transparent flying creatures, cloaked humanoids, upright canines, Sasquatch, military secrecy, and an unsolved disappearance that continues to haunt him personally.A ten-year-old boy camping near Beacon Rock awakens after hours of missing time with his boots on the wrong feet, wet socks, unexplained puncture marks, and no memory of what happened after his dogs began reacting to something in the darkness.A married couple in Bremerton watches two enormous, transparent creatures with prehistoric features glide silently above their heads. Their reflective bodies appear almost invisible in the moonlight.Campers near Table Mountain hear footsteps, faint drumming, and movement around their tents before one witness sees a long-limbed gray humanoid crouching between the trees.A man guarding a rural property encounters a partially cloaked humanoid suspended near an ancient cedar tree. The figure resembles rippling air and produces an immediate, overwhelming wave of dread.At a gas station in Grayland, a nearly seven-foot-tall employee confronts an enormous canine creature standing upright behind the building.Near Kirkland, a hiker claims to witness a violent confrontation between a Sasquatch and a translucent reptilian creature capable of producing a mysterious burning substance.A former United States Air Force serviceman describes a secret assignment following the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens. Armed guards were ordered to protect heavily concealed figures whose unusual height and proportions led him to question whether they were human disaster victims.The presentation concludes with the deeply emotional case of Mandy, a young Washington schoolteacher who contacted Lon after strange red-and-white lights appeared near her isolated farmhouse. Telephone failures, electrical blackouts, scratching on the roof, movement in the attic, and terrifying aerial activity followed.Days after Mandy asked, “Why is this happening to us?” she vanished from her bedroom without a trace.Her car, clothing, and personal belongings remained behind. There was no apparent forced entry and no known explanation for how she disappeared.These cases raise difficult questions about what may inhabit Washington's forests, mountains, waterways, and skies.Are these encounters evidence of undiscovered biological creatures, dimensional intrusions, spiritual entities, extraterrestrial activity, classified military operations, or phenomena that exist beyond our current understanding?Join Lon Strickler as he investigates the witnesses, patterns, and disturbing mysteries of UNEXPLAINED WASHINGTON.Please subscribe to Phantoms & Monsters Radio, activate notifications, and share this presentation with others interested in cryptids, UFOs, paranormal phenomena, mysterious disappearances, and the unexplained.Visit Phantoms & Monsters for additional eyewitness reports, investigations, commentary, and Fortean research.

"Do yeh fear that dark abyss?" So asks Davy Jones, the main antagonist of the second film in the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' franchise: 'Dead Man's Chest.' For context, he was referring to death, but his words could just as easily apply to the sea itself. The ocean is vast, unforgiving, and holds many secrets. One such secret is the disappearance of a Danish ship almost a century ago--the København--in which she and her entire crew vanished without a trace. Join me, if you dare, for this week's chilling episode.

On January 2, 2000, eighteen-year-old Zebb Quinn finished his shift at Walmart in Ashville, North Carolina and set off to look at a used car with his co-worker, Jason Owens. Halfway to their destination, Zebb told Jason he received an important call on his pager and needed to return the call immediately and they would have to postpone their plans to look at the car. That was the last time anyone saw Zebb Quinn. For weeks, Zebb's family and the Ashville police searched for the teenager, but it was as though he had disappeared into thin air. Then, to everyone's surprise, Zebb's car was found in a parking lot not far from the hospital where his mother and sister worked, as though someone had left it in a conspicuous place where it would be found. But more surprising than the discovery of the car itself was the incredibly strange and unexpected evidence found inside the vehicle, including several markings on the windows in red lipstick and a live black labrador puppy.

It’s been exactly two weeks since retired Major General William Neal McCasland disappeared from his New Mexico home. His disappearance is gaining national attention because the Air Force base he commanded was once the headquarters for a military program that oversaw U.F.O. investigations. Authorities believe General McCasland left his home with his wallet, his hiking boots and his gun, notably leaving his cellphone and prescription glasses behind. Now federal officials and his wife - who addresses the alien theories - are asking for the public’s help in finding him. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Shelton brothers rose from Wayne County farm boys to run one of the most powerful criminal empires in Illinois history — defying the Chicago Outfit, surviving ambushes, and collecting enemies until the bullets finally caught up with them, though the killers were never found, and at least one of the brothers apparently never left the bar where he died.*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: On July 26, 1948, infamous Illinois gangster Bernie Shelton – by then acting leader of the Shelton Brothers gang – was shot to death at the Parkway Tavern, a roadhouse that he owned outside of Peoria. For years after, Bernie's ghost was said to haunt the tavern, unable to move on after a lifetime of violence, murder, and regret.

Simply walk into a known haunted house to spend a few nights, all the while saying out-loud “I don't believe in no dang ghosts!” That's what did it for one woman. (Cousin Evie And I Know The Truth) *** How would you react if your two-year-old came running into the room, saying he's scared of a creepy image of a man in the mirror? (Creepy Memories) *** An innocent game of hide-n-seek at their grandparents' house turns into terror. (Hide And Seek) *** Three children left for a sunny day at a south Australian beach and were never heard from again.

In 1971, a man calling himself Dan Cooper boarded a flight out of Portland, handed a note to a flight attendant, and calmly claimed he had a bomb. What followed became one of the most famous hijackings in American history — a ransom drop, a midnight parachute jump into rough wilderness, and a suspect who vanished without a trace.Over the next five decades, theories multiplied, evidence surfaced and disappeared, and a mysterious bundle of cash washed up along the Columbia River. Despite one of the longest and most exhaustive investigations the FBI ever launched, the true identity — and fate — of D.B. Cooper remains one of the country's most enduring unsolved mysteries.

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.

A gifted college student vanishes on a snowy New Hampshire road. Dr. Phil unravels the haunting mystery of what happened to Maura Murray.   In this part 1 of Into Thin Air: The Mysterious Disappearance of Maura Murray | Mystery and Murder: Analysis by Dr. Phil, Dr. Phil investigates one of America's most baffling disappearances the 2004 case of Maura Murray, a 21-year-old nursing student who vanished after a late-night crash on a snowy New Hampshire road. Rather than retelling the mystery, Dr. Phil dissects Maura's state of mind: the emotional collapse after a troubling phone call, the lies about a “death in the family,” and the sudden trip north that ended in silence. Drawing on decades of clinical experience, he explains how perfectionism, fear, and shame can drive impulsive flight behavior and how stress can make even rational people act in ways that defy logic. Dr. Phil analyzes the psychology behind her choices, the investigative blind spots, and the unreliable witness memories that clouded the case. Was Maura trying to escape her life, or did she encounter someone who didn't want her found? Two decades later, her story still haunts investigators—and reveals how human behavior can hold the key to truth.

In the early morning hours of March 24, 1998, 23-year-old Amy Lynn Bradley vanished from the balcony of her family's cabin aboard a Royal Caribbean cruise ship. Just a few hours earlier, she had been at a party, joking with her brother, dancing with the ship's band, and planning out the next day's adventure in Curaçao. By sunrise, Amy was gone. Her sandals were still on the balcony. Her cigarettes were missing. Her key card and license were gone too, but everything else had been left behind.  What began as a family vacation quickly turned into a nightmare, and the moments leading up to Amy's disappearance would raise questions that remain unanswered to this day.
