While the rest of the world was feeling the chaos of the Covid 19 global pandemic, 54-year-old Sandra Hughes decided to spend time in the place she felt most at home...the great outdoors.
What began as a simple solo camping trip turned into one of the most mysterious missing person cases in recent years.
Chaotic abandoned campsites, unusual behavior, and several eyewitness sightings has left the Sierra National Forest Community questioning what exactly happened to the confident outdoorswoman.
The case took an eerie turn when a two-year-old little boy claimed to be able to see and speak to the spirit of Sandra, who was asking for his help from somewhere deep within the woods.
