Hey all, just managed to get this video finished sooner than usual. I came across 3 strange disappearances, all of which took place right besides farmhouses, in the sense that young individuals disappeared right outside of their homes, only for the searchers to find things that puzzled them. Do share your thoughts with me, I read all of the comments. Also it's finally Friday! Be safe all. Also also, if you're reading this I hope you have a great weekend.
They probably had dogs & they didn't pick the scent that is a mystery in many of the missing 411 serious There has been some strange Happings in National Forest the Ohio incidents are around Wayne National Forest
I will never fail to be surprised that people are continually gobsmacked by the idea of a child taking off all their clothes. It's actually something kids do. A lot. Very common. Keeping certain kids from stripping down into little wild beasts can be an ongoing challenge for a lot of parents.
I work in a nursery and you wouldn't believe the number of times I've had to tell a child to pull their trousers back up bc they just... Didn't want to wear them anymore.
I did exactly the same thing in 1963 when I was two years old. We lived rurally and one day, I tore off my clothes and walked off into the woods. My mother eventually found me a quarter mile from the house, naked, face down in a stream by a single stone footbridge. She found me when she saw two legs pointing up in the air and pulled me out. Two year olds are called "terrible twos" for a reason. My two year old Godson drowned in a pool right around 9/11 when the family lost sight of him for a few minutes. He was found face-down in their pool and they were not able to revive him. He had learned how to over-ride the pool alarm, climbed in and drowned. They quite literally wait until you are not watching, then run off to do crazy things.
@@eucliduschaumeau8813 Oh my god, I am so sorry about your godson! That is incredibly tragic. I wasn't much of a nudist when I was young but things like hollow logs, holes into blackberry brambles, and water were endlessly fascinating to me. It was probably a good thing we had a fenced yard to separate me from the forest and wetlands beyond.
@@eucliduschaumeau8813 I almost drowned in the pol when i was a baby but thank God I made it. I was at the bottom of the pool with my eyes wide open, I was told. Wish your godson would've made it. RIP
@@elistammers3490 Fair point...what about adults though..I would love too test the theory about adults taking there clothes off n folding them neatly in a pile n see if I would do that...obvs I appreciate that I would have too be in trouble at that point but under a controlled environment or with watchers over me I'm pretty sure I would strip down fold my clothes n put nice n neatly as I'm dying...this is kind off a less important detail when you really study these disapearences off children n people being found on the top off sheer cliff areas jagged rocks that would be completely impossible too scale for a Norma person nevermind a child in dire straights 10 20 miles away from the position they were lost...
For the first case, I would want to question the kids she was last seen with. I think they might know more than has been told. Kids can be evil and pick on anyone who stands out. Was it a bet, that she couldn’t stay out all night? Was she told she couldn’t go home for some reason?
Oh Yeah? Well how did they cause her death seems how she was completely uninjured! I am sure that police considered this possibility early on and when they found no reason to suspect the other kids ruled it out you jackass! Why do you people fail to compute this information? They couldn't find any injuries!!!!!!!!!!! Were they Stephen King character kids who stopped her heart with their minds!? What a weird thing to think for no other reason than "Kids can be evil." Kids can be mean, sure but that doesn't mean they are evil! I am sure I have been a little shit to other kids when I was a child, but i was certainly not "evil"! I was picked on by some of my best friends when I had first met them and they may have been jerks for picking on me but they weren't evil. Just little shits.
Yeah kids can be very cruel especialy to those with learning difficulties. They cant just talk other kids word for it as kids lie especially when they think they will get into trouble and they know they were doing wrong.
Good point. Kids can also be very quick to lie about little things things as they don’t realise their significance in a bigger picture and are afraid of being punished or shamed for doing something wrong. It could be as simple as they didn’t want to play with her and drove her off by some means; she went to play alone and became lost. In a child’s retelling, looking to avoid blame, “we told her to go away and she left” easily becomes a white lie of “she decided to go home.” There are an endless trove of tales of adults becoming rapidly disoriented and lost in forests that show how easily it can happen.
First story is heartbreaking. Of course many stories on here are heartbreaking, but there's a few poignant details that I found quite unsettling. Of the other stories, it's unbelievable that very young children can spend nights out in the open and come to no harm. Great video as always Adam.
The ones that bother me are the children and the elderly. But like you said they're all sad but there's extra wieght on the small ones in the older ones
@@bmaluginthevanishingman6034 Especially at night. In rural areas it gets dark...pitch black. I can't imagine being out alone at night in total darkness at that age.
Love the vocab my guy, been a minute since I have heard someone use the word " poignant " in a sentence or even written in any form of text. And used correctly I might add... Impressive sir 😎👋
The Smoky Mountains are weird too. They create their own weather, especially in the summer months. When I lived there if storms were far off to the west you could watch the mountains suck those clouds in. It can quickly go from a nice summer day to a complete deluge within minutes. In 93’ we watched the weather go from mid 70’s to below freezing and snowing within hours. People were hiking in the mountains in shorts and t-shirts the day before the blizzard rolled in. The weather people didn’t see it coming. People froze in Cades Cove due to be so ill prepared. 14” of snow on the ground within hours of the storm starting and people unable to get to their cars.
Lori... I believe you made an error in writing your comment, and that error has caused your comment to say exactly the opposite of what you wanted to say !!
Sometimes I wish they were a bit more specific. The first child was 100 yds. from home, disappeared, then was found 440 yds. from the house. Which way? Did she go past the house, making her total travel .5 kilometers, or what. It was raining. Did she turn towards presumed shelter from the rain? After action reports in the newspapers suck. The info could prevent another child going missing, or increase the chance of one being found. I have been involved in things, that have been written up in local and national papers. Rarely are they accurate. They don't appear to teach that in journalism schools. However you have done another outstanding video Adam. Your attention to detail and empathy, shines in what you do. Makes my day, thank you.
@@blackrabbit212 Sometimes it is intentional, for some reason. Every front page picture of the Exxon Valdez, shows it at anchor in Outside Bay. The four salvage vessels and oil boom are digitally removed. Not one report mentions the five Salvage Masters, who successfully removed it from Bligh Rock, without the loss of any oil, then toiled 37 days, and made it seaworthy enough, to go to SD, for repairs. Why? That is just one example, and always puzzled me.
😔I can't imagine the panic that goes though the parents when they realize their kids are missing and I hope to never experience it. I'm relieved when they are found alive but it's heartbreaking when they are found deceased. Bonnie case is sad. RIP.
I never shared this story before because it was a tad terrifying to me as a child and I wanted to lock it away in the vault but one of the stories opened the memories. I was a young lad mabye 10 or 13 it's been a while so it's foggy but I do remember the incident very vividly. Me and my best friend were exploring the woods by my house as we always did when suddenly I felt something strange and my friend bolted of chasing after what looked like a shadow to me being to as a kid by my native American family not to be too curious in the woods I didn't want to follow but I was afraid for my friend so I chased after him. He was as fit as me and so it took a second as he was a ways away to begin with finally I got to him an tackled him and told him to stop we can't catch it. It's trying to lead us astray that when I realized we were almost in a completely different wooded area it was thicker and older trees and a much larger area the wood next to my house were small before to got to house or the road on the other side. That is when I told him this isn't good. We walked for a while I'm the direction I knew we came from but for 15 minutes was nothing and I knew we had walked far enough then all of a sudden I saw the shadow if full detail my friend said it looked like a fox and this one looked like a fun x and a woman in a white dress almost it. Later on my friend told me his was black and didn't look anything like the white one we both saw. It stopped and looked at me. I asked it to let us pass as we meant not to upset it not knowing it was a different one. It looked like it nodded and then the forest was normal and right in front of us was the exit. Now I've explored that little wodded area my whole life and even got a topographic map of it there is not that many trees and not that much land for us to have ran like that or walked back. I still make sure to clean the woods around my home and not to venture to deep ever again.
I know when I was little I got lost on Long Island in New York and a similar story took place and what they told me what I might have done was not knowingly walking ahead of the search parties at a distance where I couldn't hear them and then a few days later I was found in a spot that they've already starts a couple of times but this is 40 plus years ago maybe they didn't have grid searches like they do now I don't know.
I understand that it sounds weird when someone is found in an area previously searched but my first thought is "why do you assume that they were sitting still?". Children may even hide from searchers because they are scared or think they are in trouble. That being said, the farmer's story about finding Carolyn was a little odd. He had already searched that area and found nothing and that made him think that she might be there? Of course that could just be bad reporting but it doesn't make a lot of sense.
I think when it was said that "He found nothing and made him that that she might be there" ---- I think it may have been referring to the idea that the cows weren't were they should be and that made him think that someone might have been around that area. I'm not 100% though, it certainly wasn't phrased very clearly or even in a way that made much sense
@@MissingVoidTV Yes, that's a possibility - wondering afterwards why the cows weren't where he expected them to be then getting that little niggling voice telling him to go and look again. I expect it was an impatient reporter trying to summarise a conversation and doing it badly because Mr Almendinger was trying to explain his thought process and all the reporter was interested in was the exciting bits, as it were. Kudos for pronouncing Carolyn correctly, by the way. Having spent my life being called Caroline and hearing Carolines being called Carolyn it is something that I notice!
I really like the way you narrate your videos. Very high content quality. I’ve following you for quite a while. Do keep up 🙌🏻 greetings from Costa Rica 🇨🇷
In the first story, I’m a hiker and have hiked in all weather conditions but ice is the hardest even on a level trail, it freezes over the trail fast and it’s so slippery that you’re better off not being on the trail but in the woods, even though that’s hard too. So ice might have caused her to get lost. Also, I hike in the woods bc I’m in ohio, our trails stay covered in ice for a long time.
I can't believe parents let there 2, 3, 4, 5 year olds etc outside by themselves??? I know times were different back then but come on now that's so young. But for the first story I do think something not normal happened to that girl she could see her house from where she was and had done this many times. Something isn't right. It reminds me of creatures using family members voices to call them out into the woods...
Attitudes were simply different back then. If you lived in a rural area, nearest neighbour a mile or two away, and you told the kids to remain within eyeshot of the house... that's how people lived. Remember there was nothing in the house to keep kids entertained - you couldn't plonk them in front of the TV when you were busy, and thousands of kids did this and were perfectly safe. When I was 7 - 11 years old, (in the late 70s) I'd walk home at lunchtime from school, (around 500 yards, crossing 6 roads, let myself in and make my lunch, before heading back to school) and after the age of 8 I'd have my kid brother with me (he was 3 years younger). My Mum did work 2 minutes away from the house, but I was trusted to take care of myself. I'd even use the cooker 😂 to make beans on toast or scrambled eggs.
These comments are right. I’m 33 though and noticed things started to change with unsolved mysterious and America’s most wanted shows. And of course just increased kidnapping for seedy underground markets
Let me tell you something real Adam. Kids are born wild, the same as animals. Stop underestimating how far instinct travels. Children have within them full grown spirits and are are smarter and more capable than we who think we know. No offense, but a possum could make it that far uphill overnight. Any study of human behavior must begin with the knowledge of them as ANIMALS
I always get so excited when you upload. I do miss the set up where we could see you, I felt like I was talking mysteries with a friend at the pub. Keep up the good work
Hey Rachel, one of my next upcoming videos will be like that. I'm not done with that format or anything like that, I just like to change it up and do other things too. But, I have one planned for a disappearance that I've reported on previously, but new information has come up
Carolyn Peterson was less than 2 years old, and in 80 hours lost between 5 and 7lbs. Girls of that age only weigh (on average) 26lb or less than 2 stone. I think that both girls were frightened of the searchers and hid from them.
Yall are quick with it! Thought i was gonna be 1st lol 😆 so super excited right now!!! Thank you for all you do and the hard work and time you put into making these awesome videos Top Mysteries!
I have tracked my fair share of game in all kinds of weather and terrain. I can give you a few basic pointers on tracking. The first being that even if the ground was frozen, since it was raining, there should have been shoe/foot tracks or slide marks visible on bare dirt. If there was no bare dirt, it might have been a little more difficult, especially if someone didn't have tracking experience. Vegetation would have been pushed down and being wet, it would have likely stuck that way with some of it springing back up slowly, over time. In the case of pine needles or other debris covering the ground, there should have been visible marks where the earth underneath the covering had been kicked up that would likely differ slightly in color from that of the surrounding area. It would depend on how long it had been. Dirt that had been recently exposed would likely have either been more dry or wet than the surrounding covered earth, depending on time and amount of exposure to rain. By brushing some of the nearby debris from the dirt, the color difference could be seen more easily but it would be wise to pick a place underneath a tree if there was one available, to compare the possible track to the still covered dirt. A strong rain could potentially wipe that out as a viable source for tracking, which is why you'd want to choose a covered area if there was one in such a place, to examine. There may also be a notably stronger earthy smell present due to freshly exposed damp dirt. If there were any mud puddles, one could tell by the cloudiness of the water in the puddle how long it has been since it's been stepped in. Water filled indentions can be used to get a more clear outline of the type of track or at very least, a vague shape and size. If the ground underneath was frozen, it would have complicated things a little but there are other types of markings to look for in that instance. In other words, by all rights there should have been some sign that there had been recent movement through the area. It could be that a child's tracks were mistaken for animal tracks, being as they are small, but if one was to get down and examine them the tracks should have been discernible. As I said though, it would take someone with at least rudimentary tracking skills to take note of some of these things, so it may be that they had just missed tracks if they were subtle or hidden by underbrush or vegetation. With all of that said, I find it odd that they apparently did not find any tracks. It's not like children that are lost are going to intentionally try to hide their paths and there should have been some evidence of a child having moved through the area. It's not impossible that tracks or markings were overlooked but again I wouldn't think a small child being lost and perhaps a little panicky, wouldn't have left some visible signs of having went through the area. That's just a little weird, in my mind, that there were reportedly none.
Well answered. And air temperature being freezing, doesn't mean the ground is frozen either. I agree there should have been tracks. Maybe the girls tracks were lost in the tracks of the multiple searches? My Great Gramps taught me to track. He would use any trick to keep my mind engaged & my mouth closed.
@@brandyjean7015 Yes, it wasn't clear if the temps were frequently at freezing or not, so I just included how it would look if the ground were frozen. I think most people know what a track looks like if it's dry, haha. I would hope so, anyway! I didn't want to go any deeper because some things, you just have to see to be able to effectively explain them. Like how water in a muddy track clears up over time so you can tell about how long it's been since something moved through. I'm glad someone else knows what I'm talking about, I didn't want to come off like I'm making up stuff for internet cred. Thanks for commenting!
its very easy to get lost. me and my friend had a few beers one night and decided to go explore some animal trails. nearly couldnt find our way out. luckily there was service where we were and we used maps to get out.
I've noticed you are among the story tellers on YT, that have cut back to once a week, or less. I would love to hear more from all of you, if possible. Peace and safe blessings.
Hey Marie, I'm a one man team and it's basically impossible for me to make anymore than one a week (and even that's a struggle sometimes.) The research (scouring old newspapers and google) can take a long time, the writing then takes ages too because you have to collate everything in such a way to flow nicely and make sense. After that I voice it, which also takes way longer than it should because I have to de-yorkshireify my accent a little bit so that people abroad can understand me better. Finally, after that comes the editing and there's no good way to plan time for this. Sometimes I get up at 7am and still won't be finished by 9pm. Others times it's done in 4-6 hours. Maybe it's time for me to bring an editor on board 🤷. It's hard because I really like doing it all myself haha
I think the first girl (especially since she only had the brain functions of a 5-year-old) simply got confused on the way back to her house during a rainstorm, where visibility was probably low and it was dark outside. It's possible she did not see her house, quickly became cold and tired, laid down in a brush pile for warmth and fell asleep and never woke up as temperatures dropped. Reasons she wasn't seen during the initial searches could be that she was likely partially covered by brush, therefore someone could have walked past her body by a couple of feet. I don't think there is really anything that mysterious about it. Sadly, a lot of missing people (not just children) end up being found close to their homes, or they became lost in places they know well. I do find it strange that some missing children are found alive, days later, somehow managing to survive extreme conditions.
Yes being 100 yards away is far enough to be completely lost. I person in Hawaii got lost when she stepped about 10 feet off the trail, she was found days later. People really underestimate how far it is to get lost in the woods, she probably thought she was fine to go off and was lost from there and ran around, getting further lost and probably making circle like patterns so she never made progress.
Although never mentioned it'd be fair to assume that the foliage or undergrowth isn't as heavy on the home in the story compared to a Hawaiian Island. That's not to say that you couldn't get lost in 100 yards...you clean can, but I can understand the bemusement.
I was in the woods close to a roadway but with many different paths around the same path I took in it was almost impossible to fins my way back to my car.. I had to ask other hikers which way to go🤦😁 -but another time when I was in the bristle cone park in California I was out to late on the trails, I had gone top far without paying attention, I got lost (again! lol) and the Sin went down😣. The bristle coneforest started "talking" but not in a language you'd understand or with much sound if any at all. I feel like something was trying to get me, keep me lost and take me away. I asked God/the universe to please help me find my way back to my truck. Strangely things became more clear and I remembered my way. Thank you so much❤
First case: My initial thought is that Bonnie saw something interesting (maybe an animal) and went to look at it closer or follow it which could have put her out of sight of her home. At that point, it would be incredibly easy for her to have panicked and gotten very very lost. Second and third case I don't have much to say on. Parents need to be watching their ***toddlers*** especially. Though, with the second case, definitely would agree that it seems she was taken then returned. Probably by the dude in the yellow car. Idk why adults brush kids off when they talk about other adults being creepy 🙄 this is part of the reason so many awful things happen to kids. Gotta do better and listen to them
When found alive, these smaller children tend to be putting up no fuss or struggle while ensnared in an entanglement of sorts when SAR just stumbles upon them. Also being found while searching for cows is strange since Paulides pointed out that a number of ppl have vanished entirely while out looking for cows. Plus the cow mutilations... Weird.
I love hearing these stories but nothing blows my mind like the story of Dylan Parker and the other strange happenings in the same area Dylan disappeared from
As always a pleasure listening to you and the mysterious stories, wish you a wonderful weekend Adam.So bizzare ,how can children simply dissapier from their yards🤔
I think it’s possible that Bonnie was walking back to the house and something could have caught her attention-like an animal, a rabbit or a cat-and she might have followed it. It might. It have been far before she didn’t know where she was anymore. I sort of think this could happen pretty easily, that she could have wandered a short distance and been lost or disoriented, and at those temperatures she could have lay down and curled up for warmth and gone to sleep pretty quickly.
This is possible but I have a question. She said she was "tired and wanted to go home". To add, it began raining. Do you think she'd have the desire or energy to take off after an animal, tired, in the rain?
When the girl told her friends she was feeling tired, is it possible she was actually faint and wandered off disorientated? These cases are always sad.
_"...whatever is taking children is able to find out the vulnerable ones..."_ A lamb is the most vulnerable when separated from the rest of the sheep bcuz it has little means to defend itself from a larger predator.
Been obsessed with your videos lately. Great material to fall asleep to! Wait no tht sounds mean Its not boring u just have a nice calming voice and i love this content. Really love it!
It is scary to think about & hard to imagine. That weight loss was mostly water loss. Although the elderly & young children are more susceptible to dehydration, physical activity & even weather can play a role too. 4 days is dangerously close to a different outcome for this story.
Miracles do happen. That said, in many cases, a child is more likely to survive longer than an adult when lost in survivable conditions. They say the reason is children haven't learned to anticipate completely. Adults have which gets them into trouble. Bcuz when it doesn't pan out, grown-ups get frustrated, probably take more chances, and maybe panic. But kids are more used to not knowing what to expect which increases their survivability.
Seems to me that Bonnie saw something or someone, who appeared to be someone she knew and trusted, and was led astray to her death. Her case reminds me of Nora Quoirin's.
Love your channel - found it recently and binged all your videos! Really impressed by your research and care that you show these cases. That being said, why aren't you in the videos anymore?! I would think it keeps people's attention better. These are fine to watch as an audio podcast when you're doing something else, but people probably won't watch these as if they're watching tv on their couch because it's just a slideshow you're watching. Just my opinion, keep up the good work!
Hey DJ. I'm not done doing those kinds of videos. I just like to mix it up and have a change to my workflow. I have one planned that I should be able to make within the next few weeks.
I agree, I only watch these vids when I'm busy doing other things whilst I watch the other ones soon as they come out. Personally I think Adam just got super porky over Christmas and all his hair fell out and he's trying to hide it from us! 😘😋
I’m sorry but the story about the little girl who was found alive made me cry, you don’t always see that in these stories so I wasn’t expecting it but it made me so happy that she got to go back home and be with her family again
Always great to hear your detailed although compassionate reporting on such despicable crimes. Heart goes out to family, friends and investigators 🧡. May the answer come forth quickly as the creep vibe this sends off is goosebumps in shocking amounts.
I was raised in Winston-Salem, NC approximately 30mins from where case #1 occurred. I’m honestly surprised I never heard of Bonnies case. You wouldn’t believe that of the 25 yrs living here November 2021 was my first and has been my last trip up that area/ park. It’s so Beautiful but caught weird vibes. I wanted to go back up there again but I’ve been bing watching these stories that I don’t think I’ll ever be ready to go back. Scary but sad.!
My ex mother in law and her sister were 2 of the children playing with Bonnie Edwards. She told me about this. She has since passed away. The locals believe that a certain man took her. I cant recall if she told me his name. A lot of the locals thought that he got nervous and put her body in the woods.and if they had already searched that area, no one would be there. Making it easy for him to be unnoticed
Someone could attempted to kidnap them but then changed their minds and returned them to the spot where they were found who knows apart from those at the centre of these cases.
If only there was an ethical way to put tracker collars on small children, dump them alone in the wilderness, and closely monitor what they do, just to find out for sure what they're capable of as to distances, obstacles, etc.
Instead, you could maybe compile data from kids that were found after being lost to discover how far they might travel, what difficulties they encounter, and some of their thought processes. Obviously, these factors could vary by age.
With the first little girl the area she was found had already been searched, but that doesn’t mean much considering she wouldn’t have known to stay put while lost. She could have been walking around staying just out of sight of searchers, but ending up in that location later.
Always with the missing shoe!!! Dang near every child that goes missing like this and comes back always has a missing shoe!!! One child even said a "bear" ate it. The same "bear" that took her by the hand, fed her berries and kept her warm. If they don't lose shoe, the children seem to send their clothes and are found dirty and naked.
I find it highly improbable that a young child who is discovered missing within minutes can not be found by 100's of searchers calling out to them. A child is not going to want to stay lost nor will they be able to move quicker than adults to get out of earshot. These seem to be part of the enigma that is the Missing 411 phenomenon.
Oh did the weather on Connie's case go from shorts and a t-shirt weather to below freezing in such a short amount of time? There's a lot of things weird about the case but that one seemed to be a little glossed over
The other 2 factors that go against the hypothesis, That she was abducted by a person is: #1) There was No tracks or other evidence leading to the location where she was found. ( If some one abducted her and then placed her where she was found. They would have likely left tracks when carrying her to that location. As well as made tracks leading away, When they were leaving the area.) #2) If she died of exposure to the Cold. She likely died right were she was found. And if she was abducted and then left at that location while she was still alive. Then why did she not attempt to walk from were she was found, To her house after being left there.
When I was a kid I used to play in corn fields with my dog,I could never see the dog an id crouch down an go boo cuz it couldn't see me,it was like hide and seek,I think you can walk srieght past something in undergrowth if it's thick enough which is why they wanted to clear the area of the overgrowth
Freaking great narrater man. You blow any other of the missing people channels out the water my friend. I wait for your new videos like a kid waiting on Christmas lol keep it up 👍
When I was little I guess I used to be found sleeping with my Gramps cows on several occasions. My dad worked 2 jobs and was a full time college student and my mother was a VERY young anemic mother of the 4 of us kids.(teen parents) Our neighbors were my grand parents of generational family friends who might as wel)been family. We were free range kids I just preferred to be outdoors. Maybe she just stayed with the cows and went unnoticed when they came in from pasture.
_"I used to be found sleeping with my Gramps cows..."_ Do you recall how long the longest time you were gone? And being free-range, do you remember any strange incidents, possibly odd enough you were hesitant to share?
@@AverageAmerican I don't recall anything extraordinarily odd happening while I was alone. The more unique instances happen while I was with adults. I was always outdoors if it was warm May-September. I preferred being alone. I did have our family dog attack me when I got off the bus I didn't mention. That happened quite often. He was a big white sled dog called "Sammy" and he was nuts. My bus driver saw it finally and beat him away with a broom and told my mom. She started paying attention to my coming and going after that.
@@lisameier5436 That is strange about your dog but we had a crazy dog once too. He was lab and great dane. I can relate with being outside and enjoying time alone...
Thanks for taking the time to read all that :) I'm sorry I couldn't give you an exact amount of time I was out and about. I came home when it got dark. That much I know because it gets pitch black out in the middle of nowhere but some animals never sleep and I was afraid of snowy owls and screech owls. (Kind of bad experience with a snowy owl swooping at me but I'm going to assume I was close to it's nest. ) So I know I came home at night.
Its. Very thought provoking all these vanishings no explanations Just gone most times never seen again their is a lot we dont know about this planet and probably never will.
I can’t imagine why parents leave their children unattended? Two years old and left outside alone? Horrible parenting and I’m shocked that some of these poor babies were actually found alive and well. Never leave a child alone! Never ever. I don’t leave my dogs alone outside. It’s a dangerous world and while I know there is lots of odd occurrences and children disappearing and reappearing at the same spot that was previously searched but these kids would never go missing in the first place if their parents kept an eye on them. I think we’ve all learned that kids can easily slip away and can unlock doors or being babysat by someone and they disappear and it can happen! But I don’t understand parents that are home and leave kids outside alone.
Don’t even get me started on people thinking it was normal in the 1940s for parents leaving their child alone outside or even outside with other children. It’s still simply being careless and there have been missing children and serial killers since the dawn of time. It’s common sense to not leave children unattended. And if EVERYONE was so careless back in those older times than some of us wouldn’t be alive now, our parents would have had not been born because of our grandparents wondered off or got took by a wild animal. Some people just have better parenting skills than some.
Don't know the whole story but sad to say sounds like some one in her home might be involved, that close to home ?? But who knows stranger things have happened..great channel
On your first story, I was diagnosed with a learning disability I was young. I grew up in the country. I was constantly chasing after animals. I believe that's what the little girl did. She chased after an animal and got lost. She could have hidden and came back to that area after they searched it.
Hey all, just managed to get this video finished sooner than usual. I came across 3 strange disappearances, all of which took place right besides farmhouses, in the sense that young individuals disappeared right outside of their homes, only for the searchers to find things that puzzled them. Do share your thoughts with me, I read all of the comments.
Also it's finally Friday! Be safe all.
Also also, if you're reading this I hope you have a great weekend.
They probably had dogs & they didn't pick the scent that is a mystery in many of the missing 411 serious There has been some strange Happings in National Forest the Ohio incidents are around Wayne National Forest
I'd like to hear those stories, too. Please and thank you.
And you too, lovely person. Thank you for your channel.
Happy Friday!!! 😊
Be safe too Adam, you narrate as only you can,,,love your accent!
I will never fail to be surprised that people are continually gobsmacked by the idea of a child taking off all their clothes. It's actually something kids do. A lot. Very common. Keeping certain kids from stripping down into little wild beasts can be an ongoing challenge for a lot of parents.
I work in a nursery and you wouldn't believe the number of times I've had to tell a child to pull their trousers back up bc they just... Didn't want to wear them anymore.
I did exactly the same thing in 1963 when I was two years old. We lived rurally and one day, I tore off my clothes and walked off into the woods. My mother eventually found me a quarter mile from the house, naked, face down in a stream by a single stone footbridge. She found me when she saw two legs pointing up in the air and pulled me out. Two year olds are called "terrible twos" for a reason. My two year old Godson drowned in a pool right around 9/11 when the family lost sight of him for a few minutes. He was found face-down in their pool and they were not able to revive him. He had learned how to over-ride the pool alarm, climbed in and drowned. They quite literally wait until you are not watching, then run off to do crazy things.
@@eucliduschaumeau8813 Oh my god, I am so sorry about your godson! That is incredibly tragic.
I wasn't much of a nudist when I was young but things like hollow logs, holes into blackberry brambles, and water were endlessly fascinating to me. It was probably a good thing we had a fenced yard to separate me from the forest and wetlands beyond.
@@eucliduschaumeau8813 I almost drowned in the pol when i was a baby but thank God I made it. I was at the bottom of the pool with my eyes wide open, I was told. Wish your godson would've made it. RIP
@@elistammers3490 Fair point...what about adults though..I would love too test the theory about adults taking there clothes off n folding them neatly in a pile n see if I would do that...obvs I appreciate that I would have too be in trouble at that point but under a controlled environment or with watchers over me I'm pretty sure I would strip down fold my clothes n put nice n neatly as I'm dying...this is kind off a less important detail when you really study these disapearences off children n people being found on the top off sheer cliff areas jagged rocks that would be completely impossible too scale for a Norma person nevermind a child in dire straights 10 20 miles away from the position they were lost...
For the first case, I would want to question the kids she was last seen with. I think they might know more than has been told. Kids can be evil and pick on anyone who stands out. Was it a bet, that she couldn’t stay out all night? Was she told she couldn’t go home for some reason?
Oh Yeah? Well how did they cause her death seems how she was completely uninjured! I am sure that police considered this possibility early on and when they found no reason to suspect the other kids ruled it out you jackass! Why do you people fail to compute this information? They couldn't find any injuries!!!!!!!!!!! Were they Stephen King character kids who stopped her heart with their minds!? What a weird thing to think for no other reason than "Kids can be evil." Kids can be mean, sure but that doesn't mean they are evil! I am sure I have been a little shit to other kids when I was a child, but i was certainly not "evil"! I was picked on by some of my best friends when I had first met them and they may have been jerks for picking on me but they weren't evil. Just little shits.
Seems like a classic 411 case.
Yeah kids can be very cruel especialy to those with learning difficulties. They cant just talk other kids word for it as kids lie especially when they think they will get into trouble and they know they were doing wrong.
@@charliedallachie3539 damn yew foine
Good point.
Kids can also be very quick to lie about little things things as they don’t realise their significance in a bigger picture and are afraid of being punished or shamed for doing something wrong.
It could be as simple as they didn’t want to play with her and drove her off by some means; she went to play alone and became lost.
In a child’s retelling, looking to avoid blame, “we told her to go away and she left” easily becomes a white lie of “she decided to go home.”
There are an endless trove of tales of adults becoming rapidly disoriented and lost in forests that show how easily it can happen.
First story is heartbreaking.
Of course many stories on here are heartbreaking, but there's a few poignant details that I found quite unsettling.
Of the other stories, it's unbelievable that very young children can spend nights out in the open and come to no harm.
Great video as always Adam.
The ones that bother me are the children and the elderly. But like you said they're all sad but there's extra wieght on the small ones in the older ones
@@bmaluginthevanishingman6034 Especially at night.
In rural areas it gets dark...pitch black.
I can't imagine being out alone at night in total darkness at that age.
Love the vocab my guy, been a minute since I have heard someone use the word " poignant " in a sentence or even written in any form of text. And used correctly I might add... Impressive sir 😎👋
The Smoky Mountains are weird too. They create their own weather, especially in the summer months. When I lived there if storms were far off to the west you could watch the mountains suck those clouds in. It can quickly go from a nice summer day to a complete deluge within minutes. In 93’ we watched the weather go from mid 70’s to below freezing and snowing within hours. People were hiking in the mountains in shorts and t-shirts the day before the blizzard rolled in. The weather people didn’t see it coming. People froze in Cades Cove due to be so ill prepared. 14” of snow on the ground within hours of the storm starting and people unable to get to their cars.
👀 The attention to detail on this channel is next to none. I appreciate you!
It is very good.
I've been saying it since the beginning. 👌👍👍
What ?
@@Hifive91 She probably meant second to none. Lol
Lori... I believe you made an error in writing your comment, and that error has caused your comment to say exactly the opposite of what you wanted to say !!
Sometimes I wish they were a bit more specific. The first child was 100 yds. from home, disappeared, then was found 440 yds. from the house. Which way? Did she go past the house, making her total travel .5 kilometers, or what. It was raining. Did she turn towards presumed shelter from the rain? After action reports in the newspapers suck. The info could prevent another child going missing, or increase the chance of one being found. I have been involved in things, that have been written up in local and national papers. Rarely are they accurate. They don't appear to teach that in journalism schools.
However you have done another outstanding video Adam. Your attention to detail and empathy, shines in what you do. Makes my day, thank you.
Ex-journalist here. A lot of people who work in the field are completely useless and couldn't find their own bottoms without a map.
@@blackrabbit212 Sometimes it is intentional, for some reason. Every front page picture of the Exxon Valdez, shows it at anchor in Outside Bay. The four salvage vessels and oil boom are digitally removed. Not one report mentions the five Salvage Masters, who successfully removed it from Bligh Rock, without the loss of any oil, then toiled 37 days, and made it seaworthy enough, to go to SD, for repairs. Why? That is just one example, and always puzzled me.
😔I can't imagine the panic that goes though the parents when they realize their kids are missing and I hope to never experience it. I'm relieved when they are found alive but it's heartbreaking when they are found deceased. Bonnie case is sad. RIP.
WE MISSED YOU MY GUY! There's been a shortage of high quality videos on TH-cam without you man!✌️
Countryside is peaceful until the fog and the rain or the storm starts! than the scary isolation and dread starts
Really enjoy your attention to detail in the stories. You also have a very nice voice!
Take care and be safe!
I never shared this story before because it was a tad terrifying to me as a child and I wanted to lock it away in the vault but one of the stories opened the memories. I was a young lad mabye 10 or 13 it's been a while so it's foggy but I do remember the incident very vividly. Me and my best friend were exploring the woods by my house as we always did when suddenly I felt something strange and my friend bolted of chasing after what looked like a shadow to me being to as a kid by my native American family not to be too curious in the woods I didn't want to follow but I was afraid for my friend so I chased after him. He was as fit as me and so it took a second as he was a ways away to begin with finally I got to him an tackled him and told him to stop we can't catch it. It's trying to lead us astray that when I realized we were almost in a completely different wooded area it was thicker and older trees and a much larger area the wood next to my house were small before to got to house or the road on the other side. That is when I told him this isn't good. We walked for a while I'm the direction I knew we came from but for 15 minutes was nothing and I knew we had walked far enough then all of a sudden I saw the shadow if full detail my friend said it looked like a fox and this one looked like a fun x and a woman in a white dress almost it. Later on my friend told me his was black and didn't look anything like the white one we both saw. It stopped and looked at me. I asked it to let us pass as we meant not to upset it not knowing it was a different one. It looked like it nodded and then the forest was normal and right in front of us was the exit. Now I've explored that little wodded area my whole life and even got a topographic map of it there is not that many trees and not that much land for us to have ran like that or walked back. I still make sure to clean the woods around my home and not to venture to deep ever again.
Maybe it was a shadow of a huge owl.
I'm glad you instinctively asked, to be allowed to pass. Well done.
That would really make me fearful of woods too. Shadow "people" are very frightening.
Wow...thanks for sharing! Glad you both made it back safely!
You should share this story to the (missing persons mysteries) TH-cam channel 💙

Such interesting cases! Thank you for throwing in the two that were found safe! Missing videos about children can be very hard to watch for me! ❤
I know when I was little I got lost on Long Island in New York and a similar story took place and what they told me what I might have done was not knowingly walking ahead of the search parties at a distance where I couldn't hear them and then a few days later I was found in a spot that they've already starts a couple of times but this is 40 plus years ago maybe they didn't have grid searches like they do now I don't know.

Hey Adam! Thanks for your hard work and the compassion you show for the lost and missing. Weird world we live in!👏🙏😢♥️
Happy when I see another uploaded video! I love your voice narrations and story delivery👍🏻 thanks !
Dude yes I look forward to your videos soooo much! Amazing quality. 👏
I understand that it sounds weird when someone is found in an area previously searched but my first thought is "why do you assume that they were sitting still?". Children may even hide from searchers because they are scared or think they are in trouble. That being said, the farmer's story about finding Carolyn was a little odd. He had already searched that area and found nothing and that made him think that she might be there? Of course that could just be bad reporting but it doesn't make a lot of sense.
I think when it was said that "He found nothing and made him that that she might be there" ---- I think it may have been referring to the idea that the cows weren't were they should be and that made him think that someone might have been around that area. I'm not 100% though, it certainly wasn't phrased very clearly or even in a way that made much sense
@@MissingVoidTV Yes, that's a possibility - wondering afterwards why the cows weren't where he expected them to be then getting that little niggling voice telling him to go and look again. I expect it was an impatient reporter trying to summarise a conversation and doing it badly because Mr Almendinger was trying to explain his thought process and all the reporter was interested in was the exciting bits, as it were. Kudos for pronouncing Carolyn correctly, by the way. Having spent my life being called Caroline and hearing Carolines being called Carolyn it is something that I notice!
I really like the way you narrate your videos. Very high content quality. I’ve following you for quite a while. Do keep up 🙌🏻 greetings from Costa Rica 🇨🇷
In the first story, I’m a hiker and have hiked in all weather conditions but ice is the hardest even on a level trail, it freezes over the trail fast and it’s so slippery that you’re better off not being on the trail but in the woods, even though that’s hard too.
So ice might have caused her to get lost. Also, I hike in the woods bc I’m in ohio, our trails stay covered in ice for a long time.
Hey Adam I was just thinking about you the other day wishing for a new video..and there you were!! Thanks for the upload. Love the channel. Cheers 🇨🇦
I can't believe parents let there 2, 3, 4, 5 year olds etc outside by themselves??? I know times were different back then but come on now that's so young. But for the first story I do think something not normal happened to that girl she could see her house from where she was and had done this many times. Something isn't right. It reminds me of creatures using family members voices to call them out into the woods...
Attitudes were simply different back then.
If you lived in a rural area, nearest neighbour a mile or two away, and you told the kids to remain within eyeshot of the house... that's how people lived.
Remember there was nothing in the house to keep kids entertained - you couldn't plonk them in front of the TV when you were busy, and thousands of kids did this and were perfectly safe.
When I was 7 - 11 years old, (in the late 70s) I'd walk home at lunchtime from school, (around 500 yards, crossing 6 roads, let myself in and make my lunch, before heading back to school) and after the age of 8 I'd have my kid brother with me (he was 3 years younger).
My Mum did work 2 minutes away from the house, but I was trusted to take care of myself.
I'd even use the cooker 😂 to make beans on toast or scrambled eggs.
I played by myself on my grand parents farm. From the age of 3.
Different time. We were set loose alone all the time when I was a little kid. Put out a.m., were not to be seen until evening.
These comments are right. I’m 33 though and noticed things started to change with unsolved mysterious and America’s most wanted shows. And of course just increased kidnapping for seedy underground markets
Couldn’t be happier to see the upload! Thanks Adam
Let me tell you something real Adam. Kids are born wild, the same as animals. Stop underestimating how far instinct travels. Children have within them full grown spirits and are are smarter and more capable than we who think we know.
No offense, but a possum could make it that far uphill overnight. Any study of human behavior must begin with the knowledge of them as ANIMALS
Does anyone know how to track anymore?
I always get so excited when you upload. I do miss the set up where we could see you, I felt like I was talking mysteries with a friend at the pub. Keep up the good work
Hey Rachel, one of my next upcoming videos will be like that. I'm not done with that format or anything like that, I just like to change it up and do other things too. But, I have one planned for a disappearance that I've reported on previously, but new information has come up
@@MissingVoidTV Awesome! Looking forward to it. I like the updates
Carolyn Peterson was less than 2 years old, and in 80 hours lost between 5 and 7lbs. Girls of that age only weigh (on average) 26lb or less than 2 stone.
I think that both girls were frightened of the searchers and hid from them.
Yes. I think they hid away. "Don't talk to strangers" so rather hide away.
@Adele Curry
Yeah, that's significant weight loss at that age.
Yall are quick with it! Thought i was gonna be 1st lol 😆 so super excited right now!!! Thank you for all you do and the hard work and time you put into making these awesome videos Top Mysteries!
Very good as usual. This channel never fails to deliver really good stories of mystery and the bizarre. 👍😃
I have tracked my fair share of game in all kinds of weather and terrain. I can give you a few basic pointers on tracking.
The first being that even if the ground was frozen, since it was raining, there should have been shoe/foot tracks or slide marks visible on bare dirt. If there was no bare dirt, it might have been a little more difficult, especially if someone didn't have tracking experience.
Vegetation would have been pushed down and being wet, it would have likely stuck that way with some of it springing back up slowly, over time.
In the case of pine needles or other debris covering the ground, there should have been visible marks where the earth underneath the covering had been kicked up that would likely differ slightly in color from that of the surrounding area. It would depend on how long it had been. Dirt that had been recently exposed would likely have either been more dry or wet than the surrounding covered earth, depending on time and amount of exposure to rain. By brushing some of the nearby debris from the dirt, the color difference could be seen more easily but it would be wise to pick a place underneath a tree if there was one available, to compare the possible track to the still covered dirt. A strong rain could potentially wipe that out as a viable source for tracking, which is why you'd want to choose a covered area if there was one in such a place, to examine. There may also be a notably stronger earthy smell present due to freshly exposed damp dirt.
If there were any mud puddles, one could tell by the cloudiness of the water in the puddle how long it has been since it's been stepped in. Water filled indentions can be used to get a more clear outline of the type of track or at very least, a vague shape and size.
If the ground underneath was frozen, it would have complicated things a little but there are other types of markings to look for in that instance.
In other words, by all rights there should have been some sign that there had been recent movement through the area. It could be that a child's tracks were mistaken for animal tracks, being as they are small, but if one was to get down and examine them the tracks should have been discernible. As I said though, it would take someone with at least rudimentary tracking skills to take note of some of these things, so it may be that they had just missed tracks if they were subtle or hidden by underbrush or vegetation.
With all of that said, I find it odd that they apparently did not find any tracks. It's not like children that are lost are going to intentionally try to hide their paths and there should have been some evidence of a child having moved through the area. It's not impossible that tracks or markings were overlooked but again I wouldn't think a small child being lost and perhaps a little panicky, wouldn't have left some visible signs of having went through the area. That's just a little weird, in my mind, that there were reportedly none.
Well answered. And air temperature being freezing, doesn't mean the ground is frozen either. I agree there should have been tracks. Maybe the girls tracks were lost in the tracks of the multiple searches?
My Great Gramps taught me to track. He would use any trick to keep my mind engaged & my mouth closed.
@@brandyjean7015 Yes, it wasn't clear if the temps were frequently at freezing or not, so I just included how it would look if the ground were frozen. I think most people know what a track looks like if it's dry, haha. I would hope so, anyway! I didn't want to go any deeper because some things, you just have to see to be able to effectively explain them. Like how water in a muddy track clears up over time so you can tell about how long it's been since something moved through. I'm glad someone else knows what I'm talking about, I didn't want to come off like I'm making up stuff for internet cred. Thanks for commenting!
@@ThisAlphaWolf I thank you! I scanned through comments hoping someone knowledgeable was watching. You nailed it.
Hey Adam.. Outstanding work as always!!..
The research, time, effort & Narration that you put into your videos, is spot on.
Thanks & stay safe.. 🦅
its very easy to get lost. me and my friend had a few beers one night and decided to go explore some animal trails. nearly couldnt find our way out. luckily there was service where we were and we used maps to get out.
I think I was born lost, to be honest!
I've noticed you are among the story tellers on YT, that have cut back to once a week, or less. I would love to hear more from all of you, if possible. Peace and safe blessings.
There's just not enough disappearances happening . There's not enough sereal killers either .
Hey Marie, I'm a one man team and it's basically impossible for me to make anymore than one a week (and even that's a struggle sometimes.) The research (scouring old newspapers and google) can take a long time, the writing then takes ages too because you have to collate everything in such a way to flow nicely and make sense. After that I voice it, which also takes way longer than it should because I have to de-yorkshireify my accent a little bit so that people abroad can understand me better. Finally, after that comes the editing and there's no good way to plan time for this. Sometimes I get up at 7am and still won't be finished by 9pm. Others times it's done in 4-6 hours.
Maybe it's time for me to bring an editor on board 🤷. It's hard because I really like doing it all myself haha
@@MissingVoidTV Quality > quantity. Take your time and don't burn yourself out man.

@@MissingVoidTV I think u have the best job in the world ♡
I think the first girl (especially since she only had the brain functions of a 5-year-old) simply got confused on the way back to her house during a rainstorm, where visibility was probably low and it was dark outside. It's possible she did not see her house, quickly became cold and tired, laid down in a brush pile for warmth and fell asleep and never woke up as temperatures dropped. Reasons she wasn't seen during the initial searches could be that she was likely partially covered by brush, therefore someone could have walked past her body by a couple of feet. I don't think there is really anything that mysterious about it. Sadly, a lot of missing people (not just children) end up being found close to their homes, or they became lost in places they know well. I do find it strange that some missing children are found alive, days later, somehow managing to survive extreme conditions.
When they find the child curled up... 😭 they must have been so scared. It hurts thinking how they must be so terrified its hard to hear some stories.
Smoke some n you’ll feel better chil’
Yes being 100 yards away is far enough to be completely lost. I person in Hawaii got lost when she stepped about 10 feet off the trail, she was found days later. People really underestimate how far it is to get lost in the woods, she probably thought she was fine to go off and was lost from there and ran around, getting further lost and probably making circle like patterns so she never made progress.
Although never mentioned it'd be fair to assume that the foliage or undergrowth isn't as heavy on the home in the story compared to a Hawaiian Island.
That's not to say that you couldn't get lost in 100 yards...you clean can, but I can understand the bemusement.
Everything starts looking the same in the woods.
I was in the woods close to a roadway but with many different paths around the same path I took in it was almost impossible to fins my way back to my car.. I had to ask other hikers which way to go🤦😁
-but another time when I was in the bristle cone park in California I was out to late on the trails, I had gone top far without paying attention, I got lost (again! lol) and the Sin went down😣. The bristle coneforest started "talking" but not in a language you'd understand or with much sound if any at all. I feel like something was trying to get me, keep me lost and take me away. I asked God/the universe to please help me find my way back to my truck. Strangely things became more clear and I remembered my way. Thank you so much❤
First case: My initial thought is that Bonnie saw something interesting (maybe an animal) and went to look at it closer or follow it which could have put her out of sight of her home. At that point, it would be incredibly easy for her to have panicked and gotten very very lost. Second and third case I don't have much to say on. Parents need to be watching their ***toddlers*** especially. Though, with the second case, definitely would agree that it seems she was taken then returned. Probably by the dude in the yellow car. Idk why adults brush kids off when they talk about other adults being creepy 🙄 this is part of the reason so many awful things happen to kids. Gotta do better and listen to them
Your research and thorough nature of telling these cases is second to none. One of my favourite channels. 🖤
When found alive, these smaller children tend to be putting up no fuss or struggle while ensnared in an entanglement of sorts when SAR just stumbles upon them. Also being found while searching for cows is strange since Paulides pointed out that a number of ppl have vanished entirely while out looking for cows. Plus the cow mutilations... Weird.
Whoever is taking our children and loved ones...i hope they come to a swift judgment and end.
I'm sure Yahweh has special plans for Egypt. Probably a few plagues lined up...
Poor Bonnie such a shame she wandered off led down when tired and slept and was missed by searchers.
She’s with THE KING now
Brilliant Adam! Great video. Thankyou. ❤

As always a pleasure listening to you and the mysterious stories, wish you a wonderful weekend Adam.So bizzare ,how can children simply dissapier from their yards🤔
Thunderbirds
I think it’s possible that Bonnie was walking back to the house and something could have caught her attention-like an animal, a rabbit or a cat-and she might have followed it. It might. It have been far before she didn’t know where she was anymore. I sort of think this could happen pretty easily, that she could have wandered a short distance and been lost or disoriented, and at those temperatures she could have lay down and curled up for warmth and gone to sleep pretty quickly.
This is possible but I have a question. She said she was "tired and wanted to go home". To add, it began raining. Do you think she'd have the desire or energy to take off after an animal, tired, in the rain?
You always leave a trace no matter how careful you are you always disturb something in your environment always.
Thank you. Just had a baby and I’m having some time while she sleeps it’s nearly 2am and so I come here . Thank you for being there for me xxx
When the girl told her friends she was feeling tired, is it possible she was actually faint and wandered off disorientated? These cases are always sad.
I also find it interesting that whatever is taking children is able to find out the vulnerable ones who are having conditions. Great video

A two year old losing 5-7 pounds is significant. Also she wouldn’t have survived without water for 4 days
I thought exactly that when I was listening to it.
It is scary to think about & hard to imagine. That weight loss was mostly water loss. Although the elderly & young children are more susceptible to dehydration, physical activity & even weather can play a role too. 4 days is dangerously close to a different outcome for this story.
Miracles do happen. That said, in many cases, a child is more likely to survive longer than an adult when lost in survivable conditions. They say the reason is children haven't learned to anticipate completely. Adults have which gets them into trouble. Bcuz when it doesn't pan out, grown-ups get frustrated, probably take more chances, and maybe panic. But kids are more used to not knowing what to expect which increases their survivability.
Heyyyyy little star I think I know you from MM channel xxx
Seems to me that Bonnie saw something or someone, who appeared to be someone she knew and trusted, and was led astray to her death. Her case reminds me of Nora Quoirin's.
Iv had times out on my own deep in the woods when Iv had this horrendous dreadful feeling…..I don’t stick around when I get that feeling.
Love your channel - found it recently and binged all your videos! Really impressed by your research and care that you show these cases. That being said, why aren't you in the videos anymore?! I would think it keeps people's attention better. These are fine to watch as an audio podcast when you're doing something else, but people probably won't watch these as if they're watching tv on their couch because it's just a slideshow you're watching. Just my opinion, keep up the good work!

I was raised in Winston-Salem, NC approximately 30mins from where case #1 occurred. I’m honestly surprised I never heard of Bonnies case. You wouldn’t believe that of the 25 yrs living here November 2021 was my first and has been my last trip up that area/ park. It’s so Beautiful but caught weird vibes. I wanted to go back up there again but I’ve been bing watching these stories that I don’t think I’ll ever be ready to go back. Scary but sad.!
My ex mother in law and her sister were 2 of the children playing with Bonnie Edwards. She told me about this. She has since passed away. The locals believe that a certain man took her. I cant recall if she told me his name. A lot of the locals thought that he got nervous and put her body in the woods.and if they had already searched that area, no one would be there. Making it easy for him to be unnoticed
I think that sounds absolutely plausible but very sad. What a sad memory that must them. Did they all usually play together?
Another really good one. All these stories probably raise more questions than have answers 🤔
So good to hear from you Adam just when I needed to hear your voice bro
Someone could attempted to kidnap them but then changed their minds and returned them to the spot where they were found who knows apart from those at the centre of these cases.
That little girl Caroline was taken and put back for sure. So frustrating when there’s no mention of anything SHE HAD TO TELL.
Thanks for sharing ❤🥰🙏
If only there was an ethical way to put tracker collars on small children, dump them alone in the wilderness, and closely monitor what they do, just to find out for sure what they're capable of as to distances, obstacles, etc.
Instead, you could maybe compile data from kids that were found after being lost to discover how far they might travel, what difficulties they encounter, and some of their thought processes. Obviously, these factors could vary by age.
Little kids can move really damn fast when they want. I swear they can teleport.
The little girl who wondered off sounds like she was abducted & returned
I wondered if the neighbour who found her had something to do with it...,
With the first little girl the area she was found had already been searched, but that doesn’t mean much considering she wouldn’t have known to stay put while lost. She could have been walking around staying just out of sight of searchers, but ending up in that location later.
The howling in the beginning made my cat look around lol.
Always with the missing shoe!!!
Dang near every child that goes missing like this and comes back always has a missing shoe!!!
One child even said a "bear" ate it.
The same "bear" that took her by the hand, fed her berries and kept her warm. If they don't lose shoe, the children seem to send their clothes and are found dirty and naked.
I find it highly improbable that a young child who is discovered missing within minutes can not be found by 100's of searchers calling out to them. A child is not going to want to stay lost nor will they be able to move quicker than adults to get out of earshot.
These seem to be part of the enigma that is the Missing 411 phenomenon.
Heartbreaking..
Thank You 🖤
Great job. You consistently deliver a better than good product. You really deliver. Thanks!
Thanks for the amazing upload spooky vibes are hitting in my neck of the woods
Oh did the weather on Connie's case go from shorts and a t-shirt weather to below freezing in such a short amount of time? There's a lot of things weird about the case but that one seemed to be a little glossed over
The other 2 factors that go against the hypothesis, That she was abducted by a person is:
#1) There was No tracks or other evidence leading to the location where she was found. ( If some one abducted her and then placed her where she was found. They would have likely left tracks when carrying her to that location. As well as made tracks leading away, When they were leaving the area.)
#2) If she died of exposure to the Cold. She likely died right were she was found. And if she was abducted and then left at that location while she was still alive. Then why did she not attempt to walk from were she was found, To her house after being left there.
Thank you for the great content!
When I was a kid I used to play in corn fields with my dog,I could never see the dog an id crouch down an go boo cuz it couldn't see me,it was like hide and seek,I think you can walk srieght past something in undergrowth if it's thick enough which is why they wanted to clear the area of the overgrowth
I LIKE these country side disappearances.!! Hope to see more. 💯🤠
Adam another great video.Keep them coming pal.Greetings from Ireland
Freaking great narrater man. You blow any other of the missing people channels out the water my friend. I wait for your new videos like a kid waiting on Christmas lol keep it up 👍
Not only are these cases so bizarre but they all hold the same similar outcomes.?
When I was little I guess I used to be found sleeping with my Gramps cows on several occasions. My dad worked 2 jobs and was a full time college student and my mother was a VERY young anemic mother of the 4 of us kids.(teen parents) Our neighbors were my grand parents of generational family friends who might as wel)been family. We were free range kids I just preferred to be outdoors. Maybe she just stayed with the cows and went unnoticed when they came in from pasture.
_"I used to be found sleeping with my Gramps cows..."_
Do you recall how long the longest time you were gone? And being free-range, do you remember any strange incidents, possibly odd enough you were hesitant to share?
@@AverageAmerican I don't recall anything extraordinarily odd happening while I was alone. The more unique instances happen while I was with adults. I was always outdoors if it was warm May-September. I preferred being alone. I did have our family dog attack me when I got off the bus I didn't mention. That happened quite often. He was a big white sled dog called "Sammy" and he was nuts. My bus driver saw it finally and beat him away with a broom and told my mom. She started paying attention to my coming and going after that.
@@lisameier5436 That is strange about your dog but we had a crazy dog once too. He was lab and great dane. I can relate with being outside and enjoying time alone...
Thanks for taking the time to read all that :) I'm sorry I couldn't give you an exact amount of time I was out and about. I came home when it got dark. That much I know because it gets pitch black out in the middle of nowhere but some animals never sleep and I was afraid of snowy owls and screech owls. (Kind of bad experience with a snowy owl swooping at me but I'm going to assume I was close to it's nest. ) So I know I came home at night.
You have the best voice for these videos.
Its. Very thought provoking all these vanishings no explanations
Just gone most times never seen again their is a lot we dont know about this planet and probably never will.
I can’t imagine why parents leave their children unattended? Two years old and left outside alone? Horrible parenting and I’m shocked that some of these poor babies were actually found alive and well. Never leave a child alone! Never ever. I don’t leave my dogs alone outside. It’s a dangerous world and while I know there is lots of odd occurrences and children disappearing and reappearing at the same spot that was previously searched but these kids would never go missing in the first place if their parents kept an eye on them. I think we’ve all learned that kids can easily slip away and can unlock doors or being babysat by someone and they disappear and it can happen! But I don’t understand parents that are home and leave kids outside alone.
Don’t even get me started on people thinking it was normal in the 1940s for parents leaving their child alone outside or even outside with other children. It’s still simply being careless and there have been missing children and serial killers since the dawn of time. It’s common sense to not leave children unattended. And if EVERYONE was so careless back in those older times than some of us wouldn’t be alive now, our parents would have had not been born because of our grandparents wondered off or got took by a wild animal. Some people just have better parenting skills than some.
I'm thankful that they found her alive
Wow! Love your videos!
Cheers for the upload Adam. Rob UK
compilation time soon yes?! I love your long vids. ❤
Thanks 👍😘🇸🇪
Great video, keep it coming ✌
Don't know the whole story but sad to say sounds like some one in her home might be involved, that close to home ?? But who knows stranger things have happened..great channel
On your first story, I was diagnosed with a learning disability I was young. I grew up in the country. I was constantly chasing after animals.
I believe that's what the little girl did. She chased after an animal and got lost. She could have hidden and came back to that area after they searched it.
So excited!!
Interesting cases. Thank you for the upload.
