7: Cannibals in the Great Smoky Mountains?
Bring your hiking boots and pack all your summer camping gear. We are taking you to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This episode is inspired by a viral Tik Tok video that surfaced with the claims of cannibals living inside the park and specifically, these cannibals are the reason for the long time debated disappearance of 6 year old, Dennis Martin. We're diving deep into this entire investigation of his disappearance, day by day, and debunking the mystery of what could have happened to him. Is it possible that he was abducted by cannibalistic people inside the park? Tune in and find out. We love our National Parks and we know you do too but when you're out there, remember to enjoy the view but watch your back.
