- What Happened To Ruth?
Ruth was last seen on the night of May 4 by some of her Tri-Delta sorority sisters shortly before 11:00 PM. She had just returned to her dorm, Austin Hall, after choir practice and changed into her pajamas. She had her hair in curlers and seemed like her ordinary, happy self. The other girls would later recall that she didn’t seem to be under any kind of strain or stress...but she was never seen again.

Everett financed his wanderings by selling prints and paintings, but he never stayed in the same place for long. He once wrote, “There is always an undercurrent of restlessness and wild longing. The wind is in my hair, there is a fire in my heels, and I shall always be a rover, I know.”
According to everything that exists, Everett continued to roam the southwest until the age of 20, when he disappeared for good...

In the early 1900s, Ambrose Bierce was one of the most famous writers in America. He was odd, unusual, eccentric, and often disagreeable, but critics loved his gritty stories of war and adventure. He became one of the most acclaimed writers of the period, although his literary career turned out to be tragically short. Why? Well, you see, Ambrose Bierce, like those literary characters he created, vanished one day without a trace, and his disappearance has never been solved.

There’s probably nothing more American than planning a trip to one of America’s National Parks. And nothing more peaceful than disconnecting from the world while you’re there. Hiking, camping, canoeing, rock climbing, exploring nature… all part of the perfect vacation for the outdoor enthusiast.
But what about when it all goes wrong?

On August 23, 1912, a four-year-old boy named Bobby Dunbar vanished while on a fishing trip to Swayze Lake in St. Landry Parish, Louisiana. When Mrs. Lessie Dunbar realized that her son was gone, she contacted the police, who began a massive search for the boy.
Eight months passed before the family’s hopes for Bobby’s return were finally realized —– or at least that’s how it seemed. But no part of this story would turn out to be simple. The boy who returned home was NOT Bobby Dunbar.

A newspaper in 1910 wrote about Dorothy:
"She disappeared from one of the busiest streets on earth, at the sunniest hours of a brilliant afternoon, with thousands within sight and reach, men and women who knew her on every side, and officers of the law thickly strewn in her path."
Such a young woman simply does not just disappear. And yet she did. Because no matter how perfect Dorothy seemed, not everything was as it appeared.

In 1874, just nine years after President Lincoln was slain, the nation was again shocked by a terrible event. It was not the death of a great leader but the disappearance of a previously unknown four-year-old name Charles Brewster Ross. “Little Charlie Ross” – as Americans would soon know him – was stolen away in what became the first kidnapping for ransom in the history of the United States.

It was at the Sandman where the man in the green pajamas was staying when he came to Jacksonville. Of course, that wasn’t his name. It was Bruce Campbell, and he was a stockbroker from Massachusetts. He came here to visit his son, who was then a professor at MacMurray College in town. Bruce’s first grandchild had just been born and it was meant to be a happy visit for the family.
But it turned out to be a tragic one.

Season seven of the American Hauntings Podcast, "GONE", will include stories of mysterious and impossible disappearances that we found in the archives to be the most intriguing, compelling, and downright chilling.
If all these people vanished so easily from the face of the earth, then it means that it could happen to anyone – perhaps even you.
Because, as you’ll learn this season, a disappearance doesn’t have to be possible in order for it to occur. In fact, one of the most baffling vanishings of all time simply couldn’t have happened – and yet it did.

Charlie Lawson, the quiet, unassuming man had become more outgoing, especially with the children. He laughed and told jokes, which he never did. His wife might have been happy with those changes in her husband if they hadn’t been so abrupt – and if Charlie had not been spending an inordinate amount of time with their 17-year-old daughter, Marie. Something terrible was going to happen, and it would ruin Christmas in a way that only murder and tragedy can do.

One of the strangest murder sprees in American history occurred across Louisiana and Texas in the early 1910s. Local newspapers called the first crime "the most brutal murder in the history of this section," and there would be many more -- all linked to the same killer. The newspapers of the era, dealing with murder victims that were all African-Americans, claimed the killings were connected to a deranged Voodoo woman and a cult called the "Church of Sacrifice," which used the victims for bloody rituals. The story wasn't true – the real story may have been even stranger – and they remain unsolved.

During the early years of the Great Depression, the crimes of Harry Powers appalled and fascinated thousands of people, but he is barely remembered today – much like the methods that he used to find his victims. He sought out women through matrimonial mail-order ads, seeking wives to live on his peaceful West Virginia farm. But those who answered the ads were never seen again.

On March 14, 1960, the bodies of three women from the Chicago suburbs were discovered in St. Louis Canyon, one of the many natural wonders at Starved Rock State Park, near Utica, Illinois. The crime shocked northern Illinois and led to a manhunt that snared a confessed killer who spent the next 59 years behind bars. It is one of the most shocking stories to ever occur in this otherwise peaceful region – and it left lingering spirits behind.
