If you’re a fan of urban legends, you might know the story of “the babysitter and the man upstairs.” This creepy tale tells the story of a teenage girl who is babysitting several children when she gets a call from an unidentified stalker, telling her to check on the children. Even if you haven’t heard of this urban legend, it probably sounds familiar. After all, this trope is the backbone of many notable horror films. But, this clichéd scenario exists for a reason: there are dozens of cases of babysitters who vanished or met their demise at the hands of an unknown assailant. In today’s episode of Cold-Case Detective, we’ll be exploring just two eerie cases of missing babysitters.
