SO EP:581 Missing: National Park Nightmares Part One

Welcome to first episode in a series of National Park Nightmares, a deep dive into some of the most mysterious disappearances that have taken place in America’s vast and often unforgiving national parks. In this first episode of the series, we explore four baffling cases of individuals who vanished under strange and unexplained circumstances: Dennis Martin, Thelma Pauline Melton, Bessie and Glen Hyde, and Trenny Gibson. Each of these cases presents unique and unsettling elements that leave us questioning what forces might be at play in the depths of the wilderness.
These are not merely stories of people getting lost. Many of these cases involve eerie coincidences, missing evidence, and witnesses reporting odd details that defy conventional explanations. As we embark on this series, we aim to investigate the facts while respecting the families of the missing, acknowledging the pain they have endured, and ensuring that these individuals are not forgotten. Some speculate that unknown elements—whether natural, human, or even cryptid—may be involved in these disappearances. While we are not here to promote any particular theory, we cannot ignore that fact is sometimes stranger than fiction.

Cases Covered in This Episode: 🔹 Dennis Martin (1969) – Great Smoky Mountains National Park A six-year-old boy vanishes without a trace during a family camping trip. Hundreds of searchers, including the Green Berets, comb the area, but no trace of him is ever found. Was Dennis simply lost, or was there something more sinister at play? 🔹 Thelma Pauline Melton (1981) – Great Smoky Mountains National Park An experienced hiker disappears in broad daylight on a well-traveled trail she had walked countless times before. No signs of struggle, no logical explanation—just gone. 🔹 Bessie and Glen Hyde (1928) – Grand Canyon National Park A newlywed couple sets off on a daring honeymoon adventure down the Colorado River but never reaches their destination. Their boat is found intact with all their supplies, yet the Hydes themselves have vanished. Did they drown, or is there another explanation? 🔹 Trenny Gibson (1976) – Great Smoky Mountains National Park A sixteen-year-old high school student on a school field trip steps off a trail for mere moments and is never seen again. Her disappearance raises many questions, especially considering her proximity to other students and the strange behavior of some individuals in the group.
