SO EP:581 Missing: National Park Nightmares Part One

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.

SO EP:634 Creepy Bigfoot Stories

Our first account comes from an experienced hunter who discovered that some meetings in the woods feel less like chance encounters and more like carefully arranged appointments. The second story follows a photographer documenting abandoned settlements who learned that not all forgotten places are truly empty.Finally, we hear from a property caretaker who uncovered the terrifying truth behind an elderly woman's final months of fear. Each story reveals a different facet of wilderness encounters, from the mysteriously peaceful to the genuinely predatory.These accounts remind us that the boundary between civilization and the wild is thinner than we might imagine, and that some residents of the forest have been watching us far longer than we've been watching them.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

SO EP:631 What Lives in the Deep Woods

This episode brings you the chilling account of Jeremiah—a man who sought peace in the remote mountains of North Georgia and found something far more disturbing. After a bitter divorce and burnout from corporate life, Jeremiah bought 47 acres near the Tennessee border. His plan was simple: build a log cabin by hand, live off-grid, and start over. For a while, it worked. He found the quiet, self-sufficient life he’d been craving. But the silence didn’t last.Strange sounds turned into unrelenting psychological torment. Something in the woods was watching him—something intelligent, organized, and malicious.These weren’t animals acting on instinct. They understood how to break a man down—and they took their time doing it. Jeremiah’s detailed, matter-of-fact account paints a picture of a slow, deliberate descent into fear. His story isn’t dramatic for the sake of drama. In fact, it’s his restraint that makes it so believable. He admits to questioning his sanity. He searched for rational explanations. But what happened over six months on that mountain left no room for doubt.The final days were a calculated siege—one meant to destroy not just his shelter, but his will to stay. He escaped with his life, but not his peace of mind. He’s never spoken publicly about it since.The cabin still stands, forgotten and overgrown, a quiet warning for whoever comes next.This episode is more than a ghost story. It’s a reminder that some places don’t belong to us—and some things in the wild know exactly how to make sure we don’t forget it.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.
