On April 11, 2001, 20-year-old Branson Perry was cleaning his house in Skidmore, Missouri, when he stepped outside to return a pair of jumper cables and never came back.

On February 10, 1990, two gunmen entered a family bowling alley in Las Cruces, New Mexico, and turned a robbery into one of the state’s most haunting unsolved massacres.

//The Killer Who Stayed For Breakfast//

A killer entered a family’s home in Tokyo, murdered all four people inside, and then stayed for hours — eating, using the bathroom, and leaving behind a trail of evidence. Nearly 25 years later, the Setagaya family murders remain unsolved.

//They All Vanished Overnight//

Three women went into a house in Springfield, Missouri, late one June night in 1992. By morning, they were gone. Their cars, purses, and dog were all left behind — but Sherrill Levitt, Suzie Streeter, and Stacy McCall were never seen again.

//The Crash That Let Him Disappear//

In 1982, teenage couple Jerry Ambrozuk and Dianne Babcock took off in a small rented plane as part of a plan to disappear and start a new life together. But when the aircraft crashed into Little Bitterroot Lake in Montana, Dianne drowned inside the wreckage. Jerry survived, reached shore, and then vanished for nearly 24 years, living under assumed identities before authorities finally tracked him down. What makes the case so haunting is not just the crash itself, but the life he built after surviving it.

//The Boys Who Never Made It to School//

On May 14, 1986, two 12-year-old boys in Singapore — Keh Chin Ann and Toh Hong Huat — left for school in broad daylight and never arrived.

//The Girl They Called a Runaway//

In November 1978, 19-year-old Theresa Allore disappeared from Champlain College in Lennoxville, Quebec. Early on, some reportedly treated her disappearance like a runaway case. But months later, after the spring thaw, Theresa’s body was found in Compton — and the case became something far darker. Her death remains unsolved, and the mystery has continued to haunt Canada for decades because of the unanswered questions, the criticism surrounding the early investigation, and the possibility that Theresa’s murder may have been part of a larger pattern of violence.

//The Last Words on the Phone | The Brandon Swanson Case//

In May 2008, 19-year-old Brandon Swanson called his parents after his car went into a ditch on a dark rural road in Minnesota. He told them he was okay and stayed on the phone while walking through fields toward what he believed was a nearby town. For nearly 47 minutes, his parents listened as he moved through the darkness. Then Brandon suddenly said, “Oh, shit,” and the call went silent. He was never seen again.
