Bellefonte, Pennsylvania. April 2005.

Ray Gricar has spent years building cases, following evidence, and knowing exactly where to look when something doesn’t add up.

Then one day, he vanishes.

And the deeper people look, the stranger it gets.

Anchorage, Alaska. Summer 2016.

Over five days, three men are attacked in their homes by the same stranger — a man with a black leather jacket, a claw hammer, and a terrifying sense of purpose.

What looks, at first, like a violent spree… is something far more complicated.

Salado, Texas. July 1997.

Lela and Raymond Howard leave home for a local music festival just 15 miles away.

They never arrive.

Days pass. Then weeks. And the farther the search stretches, the harder it becomes to explain how two people can disappear so completely… without ever meaning to.

This is THE WAY.

An heiress from Duluth.

A trail of fires stretching from Minnesota to the Mexican border.

And a quiet little mining town in Arizona… that never saw her coming.

Marjorie Congdon Caldwell Hagen carried wealth, suspicion, and misery wherever she went.

Her tale is part true crime… and part ghost story that still haunts this desert town.

For this special episode, we’re going local, and recording live from ground zero — Ajo, AZ, AND we’re teaming up with Z89.3 KZAO’s own Bo Johnson to tell the story of Marjorie Hagen — the “Black Widow of Ajo.”

Port Clinton, Ohio. December 2019.

A 14-year-old boy leaves home on a Friday morning and walks to school like he always did. Except this day, Harley Dilly never makes it there.

For weeks, the town searches. Streets, water, woods — every place a kid could disappear into.

Until the answer turns up in the last place anyone could ever imagine.

Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. 2015.

A family inside a quiet suburban home —

a mother.

a father.

and their seven kids.

And then, in the middle of the night…something breaks.

A 911 call. 

And a crime scene so brutal it forces the question nobody wants to ask out loud:

How does a family implode from the inside?

A young American YouTuber builds a life in a remote town in the southern Philippines.

Then armed men—posing as police—drag him from his home and force him onto a boat headed out to sea.

No proof of life. No body. Tons of questions.

They thought it was just a drive.

One friend in the backseat.

One boyfriend riding shotgun.

And a teenage girl behind the wheel.

But what happened next wasn’t an accident.

It was a decision.

And once the car hit 100 miles per hour…

there was no turning back.

High above the clouds, where the air is thin and rescue is nearly impossible…

a climber makes history.

But on the way down, something goes terribly wrong. And the world’s tallest mountain becomes her final resting place.
