It's 1992 and Stacy McCall and Suzie Streeter have just graduated from Kickapoo High School in Springfield, MO. After attending a few graduation after parties, the girls returned to Suzie's mother Sherrill's home to spend the night. They were planning to go to a water park with friends the next morning.  They never showed up or contacted those friends. It later became clear the three women vanished from the home. The media dubbed the case The Springfield Three. It has been 30 years since the women vanished and no trace of them has ever been found - causing this to be one of the most bizarre disappearances in American history.
