In this chilling episode, we unravel the eerie fates of explorers and wanderers who dared to face nature's most unforgiving landscapes—only to disappear or meet devastating ends. Frozen ships, cryptic journals, and strange disappearances weave a web of suspense and unanswered questions. Some were found. Others remain shadows in the wilderness.

The case I have for you today is extremely harrowing and there’s a lot of detailed information on the actual death, because it was documented. It was filmed, and that audio and video recording was used at the trial. Because of the detail of the actual death, I certainly felt like I got a really clear picture of what happened- and to be honest, it’s haunting; I’ve not stopped thinking about it since I started researching.

Just a warning, this one is extra horrific and there’s a few reasons why. I won’t go into detail before we begin because it’s not a super long case and we’ll get there. But what I did want to just give you a heads up about and a little bit of a warning is that this one involves children. I do some cases that involve children or younger people and if you’re listening to this true crime podcast, I’m sure you’re used to hearing about horrific stuff- but when a case is particularly brutal or had hit me in a certain way, I do like to just give a bit of a warning. You may wanna skip this one if this is a particularly hard spot for you with it being 8 and 6 year old girls.
