On June 14, 1969, in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park near Spence Field along the Appalachian Trail, six-year-old Dennis Martin vanished during a Father’s Day camping trip — and he has never been found. How does a child disappear in the span of just a few minutes while adults are only yards away? Were critical mistakes made in those first hours? And what do we make of the reported scream… and the sighting of a man carrying something red through the woods? More than fifty years later, Dennis Martin is still missing — and the mountains are still silent.

There is something bittersweet about growing up. For the child, they step into new roles with new responsibilities. They learn to earn trust from the adults in their lives. In return, the adults have to let go just a little of the baby they have raised. They watch with tears in their eyes as some of the innocence of their child slips away into a teen and one day adult. It’s hard, but it is life. We never think it’ll be my child. That’s what made it so unbelievable for 12-year-old Sherry Marler’s mother and step-father to think that their “little farmer” had simply disappeared from their quaint, small town.

Jessica Hamby was trying to come home. After months of fighting to get clean, after voluntarily entering detox, after choosing—again—to try—she stepped back into the Alabama winter…and disappeared. But Jessica’s story doesn’t begin the night she vanished. It begins six months earlier, when her friend Jeremy Abbott went missing and was later found hanging in the woods—exactly where Jessica told police his body would be. Why was she afraid to tell them? And why, after finally speaking up, did she leave the state for months? When Jessica returned, her phone began moving through Winston and Marion counties in the early morning hours of January 3, 2018—ending with one final message. What happened in those final hours? And how does a young mother simply vanish without a trace?

A century ago, a mysterious illness swept across the world—and instead of killing quickly, it stole something far stranger: movement, speech, and the ability to wake. Victims of encephalitis lethargica, the so-called “sleeping sickness,” became trapped inside their own bodies—some frozen mid-step, mid-sentence, or mid-bite, aware of everything but unable to respond. Millions were infected and many survivors were left as “living statues” for decades, until one experimental drug in the 1960s briefly awakened them—only for the miracle to fade and the darkness to return. In this episode, we follow the chilling rise and disappearance of the disease, the haunting patients of Beth Abraham Hospital, and the medical mystery that still has no definitive answer. Because the most unsettling part isn’t just what it did—it’s that we still don’t know why, or whether something like it could happen again.
