In the quiet mountain town of Keddie, California, a brutal crime shattered the peace of a spring night back in 1981. Four lives were taken in a cabin tucked deep in the woods—three victims were found in a scene of unimaginable violence, and one victim was missing for years. Despite decades of investigation, the case remains unsolved, draped in mystery and fear. Who committed the murders? Why were key pieces of evidence ignored? And why did this small-town tragedy become one of the most haunting cold cases in American history?

Join us for Keddie Cabin 28 Murders. The murders of Susan Sharp, John Sharp, Tina Sharp, and Dana Wingate were all the things that make a horror movie. But this is real life and real people were devastated by these murders. All that is left of Cabin 28 is the land, and that’s where dark secrets linger while justice remains just out of reach.
