Alone in the Woods | Gary Hilton

Gary Hilton, AKA The National Forest Serial Killer was a man who stalked the national forests in the Carolina's and Florida in the early - mid 2000's. He was convicted of killing four people, however the number is suspected to higher as he was caught in his 60's. It's very unlikely that somebody like him started killing so late in life, and given the nature of his crimes, and the location of his hunting grounds, it would be very difficult to determine his exact kill count.

The Worst Time To Go Missing | Sneah Philip

Back in '01, September of '01... The 10th of September '01 to be exact, a young aspiring doctor went missing. For those of you who were alive during the time know what that means, and the rest would have learned about it in history class. That fateful September the world changed, and with it lives changed. No more so than the Philip family. Sneah went out on the night of the 10th, and was never seen again. Naturally many assumed she perished in the 9/11 attacks, but it took years for that acknowledgment to happen. Even though her official cause of death was due to the attacks, there is still some speculation about what really happened to her the night before the 11th. Trust me when I say not everything was what it seemed.

A Girl Who Vanished | Melanie Ethier Part 1

This is one of those weird cases. A girl walked home alone, about a ten minute walk, only she never made it home. The girl in question is Melanie Ethier, she was 15. After watching a movie at her friend's house, she was never seen again. The town of New Liskeard and the surrounding communities had a total population of about 11,000 people, so crimes of this nature weren't all that common. The investigation lead nowhere. And to this day, there has been next to no evidence or leads as to what happened to Melanie Ethier.
