Anthonette Cayedito, a 9-year-old girl from Gallup, New Mexico, went missing on April 6, 1986. Her mother, Penny Cayedito, had gone out for the night and left Anthonette and her two younger sisters with a babysitter. When Penny returned home all of her daughters were there when she fell asleep at 3am. When Penny woke up at 7am she found Anthonette missing from her bed. There were no signs of a struggle, but the front door and screen door were unlocked. Despite extensive searches and investigations, Anthonette's whereabouts remain unknown. In 1987, a phone call was made to the police station, believed to be from Anthonette, but the call has not been verified. Police have suggested that Penny may have known more about the disappearance than she revealed and that she failed a polygraph test, but no suspects have ever been named in this case.

Amy Mihaljevic was a 10-year-old girl who went missing in 1989 in Bay Village, Ohio. Amy was lured to a shopping center by a stranger who called her at home twice. The first time the man insisted he needed her help buying her mother a surprise gift for a recent work promotion and the second time promising to buy her a gift as well. She was last seen at the shopping center, where witnesses reported seeing her with a man who approached her and led her to his car. Despite extensive searches and investigations, Amy's body was found months later in a rural area, and her killer has never been caught. In recent years, advancements in DNA technology have led to new leads, including the discovery that Amy's hair was found on a curtain and blanket near her body. Police continue to investigate the case and are hopeful that finding the owner of the curtain will lead to the person responsible for Amy's murder.

The Thompson family, consisting of Everett Sr., Lydia, and their two sons, Everett Jr. and Andrew, went missing in July 1996 in Chicago, IL. Prior to their disappearance, there was tension in the household due to Lydia's brother, Kenneth White, who had recently been released from prison and was staying with them. On July 3, 1996, Lydia called the police reporting that Kenneth was chasing her with an ax, but no arrests were made. On July 5, Everett received a frantic call from Lydia, stating that Kenneth was once again chasing her with an ax. Everett left work in a hurry, and this was the last time anyone saw or heard from him. Kenneth later arrived at the restaurant where Everett worked, claiming that Everett had been arrested after a car accident. Kenneth's story kept changing, and he eventually sold the family van to a scrap yard and the Thompson home to people who immediately gutted the interior. The Thompson family's disappearance remains unsolved, and Kenneth, the prime suspect, died by suicide in December 1997.

If you anything about the disappearance of the Thompson family - or their whereabouts today- please call the Area South Chicago Police Department at 312-747-5789

Sigrid Stevenson, a 25-year-old graduate student at Trenton State College in New Jersey, was found brutally beaten to death on September 4, 1977. She had returned to campus after hitchhiking through Canada and New England and planned to spend the night in Kendall Hall to practice the piano. Her body was discovered by a security guard, naked and covered with a piano cover, with her wrists tied behind her back. The police ruled out robbery as a motive, as her wallet and money were found, and she was not sexually assaulted. Despite extensive investigations and questioning of the cast of a play she had watched before her death, the case remains unsolved.

In 2016, students at the college reported paranormal activity in Kendall Hall, claiming that Sigrid's spirit was haunting the building.
