July 08, 2023 Episode 67: Strange Disappearances & Reappearances
Today we are covering 3 bizarre missing persons cases that have 1 thing in common. Each of our three stories today have someone drop off of the face of the earth and then re-appear years later with either no memory of the time lost, or who they were before they vanished. The truth of what happened when Vasile Gorgos, Jody Roberts, and Gabriel Nagy went missing still remains to be seen, but there are some very interesting theories.
