On a quiet summer night in Baraboo, Wisconsin, 13-year-old Thad Phillips was abducted from his own living room.

What followed was a horrifying two-day ordeal—of shattered bones, sadistic control, and a desperate fight for survival.

His kidnapper? A teenager named Joe Clark.

His motive? Something darker than anyone could explain.

In this Dark Files bonus episode, we follow Thad’s escape from a nightmare that no child should endure—and the shocking truth it exposed about another missing boy: Chris Steiner.

Graphic. Forensic. Unfiltered.

This is the story of survival, sadism, and strength.

This is the Bonebreaker.

Listener discretion is strongly advised.
