Before the fame. Before the ghosts.

Jessica Swan wasn’t chasing haunted houses yet.

No sponsors.

No livestreams.

Just a tiny bedroom podcast a borrowed mic a dream.

What she did have… was a case no one else cared about.

The disappearance of Kayla Brooks a 19-year-old Black college student gone without a trace from a bus stop on the east side of the city.

Police logged it.

Filed it away.

Moved on.
