Ep. 116 | The Disappearance of Cindy Anderson

On August 4, 1981, twenty-year-old Cindy Anderson went to work as a legal secretary at a Toledo, Ohio law office. With just ten days left before she was set to leave for Bible college, vanished from work that day without a trace. When her bosses arrived that afternoon, her car was in the parking lot, but Cindy was gone. The romance novel Cindy had been reading was left open on her desk, as if she had been interrupted while reading it. The page it was open to was the only violent scene in the book, where the female protagonist is abducted and knifepoint.

In the weeks prior, she had been receiving deeply disturbing phone calls at the office and suffering from recurring nightmares about being attacked, prompting her employers to install an emergency buzzer at her desk and leading her to keep the office doors locked at all times, yet Cindy did not ring the buzzer the day she disappeared. To this day, Cindy has never been found.
