- 0:00Speaker 1: It is an unfortunate reality of being human and living
- 0:03Speaker 1: on planet Earth that sometimes people go missing without any
- 0:09Speaker 1: clue as to what happened to them. One day they're yere,
- 0:12Speaker 1: the next day they're gone. There's no clear indication of
- 0:15Speaker 1: what happened. And despite everybody else's best efforts, nothing has
- 0:20Speaker 1: ever learned about what happened to them, and so their
- 0:23Speaker 1: families and their friends, they're left with this void in
- 0:26Speaker 1: their lives that I can only imagine how terrible that is.
- 0:28Speaker 1: There's no closure. There's like that perpetual sense that if
- 0:32Speaker 1: you could just find more information out, you could find
- 0:35Speaker 1: out what happened to your loved one, to your friend,
- 0:37Speaker 1: to your colleague. But many times people never get that.
- 0:40Speaker 1: These people just go missing and that's it. But in
- 0:44Speaker 1: some cases where people suddenly go missing, they'll turn up again,
- 0:49Speaker 1: sometimes days, weeks, months, years later in totally different locations
- 0:55Speaker 1: from where they went missing. But sometimes in very rare circumstances,
- 1:00Speaker 1: these people that go missing will re emerge days, weeks, months,
- 1:05Speaker 1: years later, not having any idea how they got there
- 1:09Speaker 1: or what happened to them. And so today I'm going
- 1:11Speaker 1: to share three of these reappearance stories. The first two
- 1:14Speaker 1: are the most well known. They're very famous, and the
- 1:17Speaker 1: third one is not as well known, but equally as intriguing.
- 1:21Speaker 1: But before we get into today's three stories, if you're
- 1:24Speaker 1: a fan of the strange, dark, and mysterious delivered in
- 1:27Speaker 1: story format, then you come to the right place, because
- 1:30Speaker 1: that is all I do, and I upload three to
- 1:32Speaker 1: four times a week, if not more so, if that's
- 1:35Speaker 1: something you'd be interested in, I would encourage you to
- 1:37Speaker 1: please gently perform a lobotomy on the like button and
- 1:40Speaker 1: then subscribe to my channels, turn on all notifications so
- 1:43Speaker 1: you don't miss any of my three to four weekly uploads. Okay,
- 1:47Speaker 1: let's get into the stories. In nineteen seventy eight, a
- 2:05Speaker 1: twenty three year old named Stephen Kubaki was attending a
- 2:08Speaker 1: college called Hope University in Michigan. It was a small
- 2:13Speaker 1: Christian school where he was studying German and history. Stephen
- 2:18Speaker 1: was a little more free spirited than the typical student
- 2:21Speaker 1: enrolled at Hope University, which was very conservative. He was
- 2:24Speaker 1: a big time outdoor enthusiast and he loved to go skiing.
- 2:28Speaker 1: In February of nineteen seventy eight, which was just months
- 2:31Speaker 1: before Stephen was set to graduate, he decided he wanted
- 2:34Speaker 1: to go on a solo ski trip around the Lake
- 2:38Speaker 1: Michigan area, and so this area was known as the
- 2:41Speaker 1: Lake Michigan Triangle. It's also known as just the Michigan Triangle.
- 2:45Speaker 1: And it's an awful lot like the Bermuda Triangle, which
- 2:49Speaker 1: is in that northern section of the Atlantic Ocean where
- 2:51Speaker 1: planes and boats have gone missing over the years, kind
- 2:54Speaker 1: of inexplicably. Well, the Michigan Triangle is like that. And
- 2:58Speaker 1: starting in the late eighteen hundred and there were all
- 3:01Speaker 1: these disappearances that started occurring in the Michigan Triangle area.
- 3:04Speaker 1: And so Stephen was going to be skiing around the
- 3:07Speaker 1: Lake Michigan area, and so he would be in the
- 3:10Speaker 1: Michigan Triangle. Now, he had told his friends and his
- 3:12Speaker 1: family that he was just going out for a day trip.
- 3:14Speaker 1: And Stephen was a very accomplished outdoorsman, excellent cross country skier,
- 3:19Speaker 1: so really no one bats an eye when he decides
- 3:21Speaker 1: to go out and you know, go skiing. No one
- 3:24Speaker 1: even thought twice about it. They're like, all right, cool.
- 3:26Speaker 1: See tomorrow, a day after Steven had left for this
- 3:28Speaker 1: ski trip, some snowmobilers were out in the Michigan Triangle area,
- 3:33Speaker 1: and they spotted a trail of ski tracks that led
- 3:38Speaker 1: up to the edge of the lake where at the
- 3:40Speaker 1: edge of the lake were a set of skis and
- 3:42Speaker 1: two ski poles just stopped abruptly, and they see that
- 3:45Speaker 1: this looks like someone might have fallen into the lake. Now,
- 3:48Speaker 1: there weren't any clear breaks in the lake itself, but
- 3:51Speaker 1: they figured it was worth telling police and to at
- 3:53Speaker 1: least let them know in case they're looking for someone
- 3:56Speaker 1: who might have gone missing in the area. And so
- 3:58Speaker 1: it was around this time that Stephen Kubaki's friends and
- 4:01Speaker 1: family started to recognize that he wasn't back yet and
- 4:05Speaker 1: he should have been, and so they end up calling
- 4:07Speaker 1: in an official missing person's report because he should have
- 4:10Speaker 1: been back. And so the two things happened in tandem.
- 4:13Speaker 1: You have the snowmobilers that have found the ski poles
- 4:16Speaker 1: and the skis, and you have the missing person's reports
- 4:19Speaker 1: that's come out for Stephen Kubaki, and immediately they're connected,
- 4:22Speaker 1: and this massive search effort is launched with a focus
- 4:26Speaker 1: on where those skis and the poles were found. Now,
- 4:29Speaker 1: they looked everywhere, but it was like his tracks went
- 4:34Speaker 1: right up to the edge of the lake and then
- 4:36Speaker 1: just stopped. There weren't any more tracks on the lake,
- 4:39Speaker 1: there were no breaks in the lake, there was there's
- 4:42Speaker 1: nothing there. It was like he just suddenly either went
- 4:44Speaker 1: into the ground or just vanished somehow. And so as
- 4:47Speaker 1: hundreds of people have descended on this area to look
- 4:49Speaker 1: for Steve Kubaki, his backpack shows up right next to
- 4:53Speaker 1: his skis and ski poles. That was the first place
- 4:56Speaker 1: that everybody went, and his backpack wasn't there, and they
- 4:59Speaker 1: didn't even know how to investigate it. It was just
- 5:01Speaker 1: this weird phenomenon where all these people are like, I
- 5:05Speaker 1: guess it just must have been there the whole time.
- 5:07Speaker 1: They just didn't have a good answer for it. And
- 5:09Speaker 1: so after a long and very elaborate search, ultimately they
- 5:13Speaker 1: had to call it off. And so they told the
- 5:15Speaker 1: family and friends that what must have happened is he
- 5:18Speaker 1: got out of his skis and put everything down, went
- 5:21Speaker 1: onto the lake and it cracked and he fell in.
- 5:23Speaker 1: And so that's what everybody believed. I mean, why wouldn't
- 5:26Speaker 1: they Fifteen months go by and Steven's father, here's a
- 5:30Speaker 1: knocking on the door, and who's at the door. Stephen Kubaki,
- 5:34Speaker 1: and when he sees his son, he can't believe it
- 5:35Speaker 1: because he believed his son was dead. But Kubaki has
- 5:39Speaker 1: no idea. Steve has no idea how much time has passed.
- 5:42Speaker 1: He saw a newspaper. Steven saw a newspaper in his
- 5:45Speaker 1: father's house and it showed that it had been fifteen
- 5:48Speaker 1: months since he disappeared. He asked his father, like, how
- 5:51Speaker 1: can this be? And he told Stephen, you were near
- 5:54Speaker 1: Lake Michigan, that's seven hundred miles away. How did you
- 5:58Speaker 1: get here? And Steven's like, I just I woke up
- 6:01Speaker 1: in a field about forty miles from here, and I
- 6:04Speaker 1: went to my aunt's house, your sister's house, and she
- 6:08Speaker 1: brought me here. And no one had any idea how
- 6:10Speaker 1: he got there or why he was in the field
- 6:11Speaker 1: in Pittsfield to begin with. In addition, Stephen had on
- 6:14Speaker 1: clothes that he didn't recognize. He had a new backpack
- 6:17Speaker 1: that had maps and all sorts of kind of like
- 6:21Speaker 1: trinkets from different parts of the country. He had been
- 6:23Speaker 1: to apparently San Francisco, Sacramento, all over California, Chicago to Utah.
- 6:27Speaker 1: He's been all over the country. According to the things
- 6:29Speaker 1: that are in his backpack. He had forty dollars in cash,
- 6:32Speaker 1: he had new sneakers, new glasses, and he had a
- 6:35Speaker 1: T shirt on from a Wisconsin marathon. It says he
- 6:38Speaker 1: was a participant in and one of the only things
- 6:40Speaker 1: that Stephen would say to the media because he basically
- 6:43Speaker 1: swore off the media and he didn't want to give
- 6:45Speaker 1: a story to anybody. He just said to one of
- 6:47Speaker 1: the news outlets that he felt like he had been
- 6:49Speaker 1: doing a lot of running. But other than that, we
- 6:52Speaker 1: don't know what he was doing for fifteen months, and
- 6:54Speaker 1: apparently he doesn't either. In early twenty eighteen, Danny Philipitus
- 7:04Speaker 1: was a forty nine year old firefighter living in Canada.
- 7:08Speaker 1: He had a wife, he had two kids. He was happy, healthy, successful,
- 7:13Speaker 1: and every year he and his colleagues at the firehouse
- 7:18Speaker 1: would go on a ski trip to New York where
- 7:20Speaker 1: they would go skiing at a mountain called Whiteface. And
- 7:22Speaker 1: so in February seventh, twenty eighteen, Danny and his seven
- 7:26Speaker 1: colleagues are at Whiteface. They're enjoying themselves. Danny was an
- 7:29Speaker 1: avid skier, like this is something he really looked forward to,
- 7:32Speaker 1: was this annual retreat to White Face Mountain and it
- 7:35Speaker 1: was getting to be lunchtime, and his seven colleagues said, hey,
- 7:38Speaker 1: let's go down to the lodge and get a bite
- 7:40Speaker 1: to eat. Danny was just having a great time on
- 7:43Speaker 1: the mountain and he was like, you know, I'm going
- 7:45Speaker 1: to just do a couple more runs. I'll meet you
- 7:47Speaker 1: guys in about thirty minutes or so. I'm gonna a
- 7:49Speaker 1: couple more runs before lunch. So they go down to
- 7:51Speaker 1: the lodge and Danny continued to do a couple more runs,
- 7:53Speaker 1: and so after an hour or so and Danny still
- 7:56Speaker 1: hasn't shown up at the lodge, his seven colleagues had
- 7:58Speaker 1: finished eating and they're like, you know what, I bet
- 8:01Speaker 1: Danny just decided he wanted to skip lunch and he's
- 8:03Speaker 1: probably just fine. And so they end up just going
- 8:06Speaker 1: out and skiing the rest of the day. But by
- 8:09Speaker 1: the end of the night, when the mountain is starting
- 8:11Speaker 1: to shut down, they're all checking their phones for messages
- 8:14Speaker 1: from Danny. They haven't gotten anything from him, they haven't
- 8:16Speaker 1: seen him. They decide, let's go check out his room
- 8:20Speaker 1: back at the hotel and make sure that he's there.
- 8:22Speaker 1: Maybe he got sick and he left something like that.
- 8:25Speaker 1: And the resort was attached to the mountain itself, so
- 8:27Speaker 1: they just walked right over to his room. They knocked,
- 8:30Speaker 1: he didn't answer, but then they went out back and
- 8:32Speaker 1: they found his car, and his car was still there.
- 8:35Speaker 1: They went to the front desk, they explained the situation.
- 8:37Speaker 1: They ended up going in the room and checking to
- 8:39Speaker 1: see if he was in there. He wasn't, but all
- 8:41Speaker 1: of his personal belongings are still inside of the room.
- 8:45Speaker 1: So Danny, who has not shown up after going skiing
- 8:48Speaker 1: for this additional run, clearly hasn't left the mountain because
- 8:52Speaker 1: his car is still here, his cash, his passport, everything
- 8:55Speaker 1: is in his room. But no one knows where Danny is,
- 8:58Speaker 1: and so they launched this massive search for Danny. And
- 9:02Speaker 1: I mean this day, it was so crowded at Whiteface.
- 9:04Speaker 1: There's so many people there. And also it had snowed
- 9:08Speaker 1: a ton before they even started skiing that day, so
- 9:11Speaker 1: it would have been very difficult to move very far
- 9:14Speaker 1: off the mountain, let's say, if someone wanted to. I
- 9:17Speaker 1: mean just there was too much snow on the ground,
- 9:18Speaker 1: so he couldn't have gotten very far. And there were
- 9:20Speaker 1: lots of people there that they could interview to say,
- 9:23Speaker 1: have you seen this man. They had a picture of him,
- 9:25Speaker 1: you know, and no one had seen him and there
- 9:28Speaker 1: was no sign of him. Despite this massive search effort.
- 9:31Speaker 1: No one has any idea what happened to him. The
- 9:34Speaker 1: authorities call off the search and they tell his loved
- 9:37Speaker 1: ones and his friends that, you know, Danny must have
- 9:40Speaker 1: succumbed to the elements. That's the only explanation we can give.
- 9:44Speaker 1: We can't find him now because the snow's pretty deep,
- 9:47Speaker 1: but hopefully when the weather warms up, we'll be able
- 9:49Speaker 1: to launch another search and we can recover his body.
- 9:52Speaker 1: And so that's the news that's passed to his wife,
- 9:54Speaker 1: his kids, his friends, and it's just devastating. And then
- 9:57Speaker 1: a couple of days later, Danny, his wife, is home
- 10:02Speaker 1: trying to adjust to this awful new normal, and she
- 10:05Speaker 1: gets a phone call from a number she doesn't recognize
- 10:08Speaker 1: and she picks it up and it's a little bit
- 10:09Speaker 1: hard to hear, but she immediately recognizes her husband's voice
- 10:14Speaker 1: and she can tell right away that there's something wrong,
- 10:16Speaker 1: like he's not making sense. She's like, Danny, is that you?
- 10:20Speaker 1: Is that you? And Danny's like, I don't know where
- 10:23Speaker 1: I am. I don't know how I got here? Where
- 10:25Speaker 1: are you? What am I doing? And so she immediately
- 10:28Speaker 1: tells him, you have to call the police. You have
- 10:30Speaker 1: to call the police. They have to come get you.
- 10:32Speaker 1: And finally he agrees and he hangs up. The police
- 10:34Speaker 1: receive a phone call from Danny, and he doesn't know
- 10:37Speaker 1: where he is. He's saying that, you know, my wife
- 10:39Speaker 1: told me to call you. I'm very confused. I don't
- 10:41Speaker 1: know what's going on. And they ask him to describe
- 10:44Speaker 1: where he is, and he starts describing what's around him,
- 10:47Speaker 1: and police are able to, you know, eventually pinpoint where
- 10:50Speaker 1: he is, and it turns out he was near Sacramento, California,
- 10:54Speaker 1: twenty nine hundred miles away from White Faced Mountain. Even
- 10:59Speaker 1: more strangely, when the police go to collect Danny, he's
- 11:03Speaker 1: still wearing his ski gear, you know, winter jacket, winter pants,
- 11:06Speaker 1: ski boots on. He even still had his goggles on
- 11:09Speaker 1: his head, and he has a haircut. He has a
- 11:12Speaker 1: fresh haircut, and he has a brand new phone, a
- 11:15Speaker 1: brand new iPhone. But he had no money, he had
- 11:19Speaker 1: no wallet, he had nothing. He had left all of
- 11:21Speaker 1: his belongings in his room. So looking at him like,
- 11:24Speaker 1: how did you get a new phone. How did you
- 11:26Speaker 1: get a haircut? Why did you get a new haircut?
- 11:28Speaker 1: And when you got your haircut, why didn't the person
- 11:31Speaker 1: cutting her hair let someone know that a man who's
- 11:34Speaker 1: visibly confused wearing ski gear is getting a haircut in here.
- 11:38Speaker 1: And so it's just a totally strange mystery that Danny
- 11:40Speaker 1: to this day and anybody that knows Danny and his friends,
- 11:44Speaker 1: the investigators, everybody, no one knows how he got there.
- 11:46Speaker 1: How does a guy without a car, without any money,
- 11:51Speaker 1: wearing ski gear go from New York to Sacramento, California
- 11:56Speaker 1: somehow get a haircut and buy a new phone and
- 11:58Speaker 1: then just suddenly cut and be like, oh, that's right,
- 12:02Speaker 1: I'm Danny, and I'm gonna call my wife and let
- 12:04Speaker 1: her know where I am now. Like it was just crazy.
- 12:12Speaker 1: So this last story was documented in the Official American
- 12:15Speaker 1: Ethnology Report from eighteen ninety seven eighteen ninety eight. Although
- 12:19Speaker 1: the story is well documented in this report, the location
- 12:23Speaker 1: is unclear. People have speculated that it's either Ireland, Scotland,
- 12:27Speaker 1: or Wales. So just take this with a grain of
- 12:29Speaker 1: salt that the location is not known. It's an older story,
- 12:32Speaker 1: but it was officially documented in an official report in
- 12:36Speaker 1: eighteen ninety eight. A twelve year old boy was playing
- 12:39Speaker 1: at this river that ran near his house. He was
- 12:42Speaker 1: out in the forest. He's playing to this river, and
- 12:44Speaker 1: he had a bow and arrow and he was practicing
- 12:46Speaker 1: shooting his bow and arrow. And after a little while,
- 12:48Speaker 1: he got bored of his bow and arrow, and he
- 12:51Speaker 1: went to the stream itself and he started to build
- 12:53Speaker 1: a little dam in the river to try to catch
- 12:56Speaker 1: some fish. And as he's building this thing up, he's
- 12:58Speaker 1: down on his knees building up this little dam in
- 13:01Speaker 1: the river. He notices someone is walking down the river
- 13:04Speaker 1: towards him, and he looks up and he would describe
- 13:08Speaker 1: this person as looking normal, a normal looking stranger. It's
- 13:12Speaker 1: a gentleman who shows up. He's wearing a nice suit.
- 13:15Speaker 1: He walks over to Wafford and he apparently just came
- 13:18Speaker 1: out of the woods and he says, hey, what are
- 13:20Speaker 1: you doing? And the boy, you know, he's like, oh,
- 13:22Speaker 1: I'm making this fish trap. And he's like, man, it's
- 13:24Speaker 1: like a lot of work, Like, you know, you should
- 13:26Speaker 1: take a break. And the boy's like, yeah, I guess
- 13:29Speaker 1: I could take a break. And the gentleman just says well,
- 13:33Speaker 1: if you want, you know, while you're taking this break,
- 13:35Speaker 1: you could come to my house. It's just up past
- 13:37Speaker 1: the bend here. My family's there. You can have a
- 13:40Speaker 1: meal with us, and then you can come back and
- 13:42Speaker 1: you can finish your fish trap. And so, you know,
- 13:44Speaker 1: this is a different time. This is the late eighteen hundreds,
- 13:46Speaker 1: and I'm not suggesting that at the time it was
- 13:48Speaker 1: totally cool to go with strangers into weird houses in
- 13:51Speaker 1: the forest. But the boy felt compelled to say yes.
- 13:55Speaker 1: He didn't want to be rude, and maybe his fear
- 13:57Speaker 1: of strangers is less extreme than it is for us
- 14:00Speaker 1: today in twenty twenty, and so he agrees to go
- 14:03Speaker 1: with the man. They make their way up past the
- 14:05Speaker 1: river into the forest a little bit, and they come
- 14:06Speaker 1: up to this cabin. Now, the boy played in the
- 14:09Speaker 1: woods here, and he had never seen this house before.
- 14:12Speaker 1: But he's not too concerned because as soon as he
- 14:15Speaker 1: gets to the house, this cabin in the woods, he
- 14:18Speaker 1: sees that the lights are on and he hears kids
- 14:20Speaker 1: playing inside, and a close family friend of his families
- 14:24Speaker 1: is sitting on the porch talking to one of the
- 14:27Speaker 1: other apparently family members of the stranger. And so the
- 14:30Speaker 1: boys put at ease, and he says hi to the
- 14:32Speaker 1: family friend, and the family friend, you know, waves back.
- 14:35Speaker 1: The boy goes inside and he sees that this family
- 14:38Speaker 1: has a couple of kids roughly his age. They're playing
- 14:40Speaker 1: gooping around. They have dinner, this wonderful meal, and the
- 14:44Speaker 1: boy waffered is like, man, this is so great. And
- 14:47Speaker 1: after the meal, he lays down and falls asleep. He
- 14:50Speaker 1: kind of loses track of time. The boy falls asleep
- 14:52Speaker 1: with this cabin, and so he wakes up early the
- 14:55Speaker 1: next morning and he feels horrible because he didn't mean
- 14:58Speaker 1: to fall asleep, and he didn't tell anyone from his
- 15:00Speaker 1: family where he was going, and he's thinking, man, they're
- 15:03Speaker 1: going to be so worried about me. And so as
- 15:05Speaker 1: he's getting out to leave, the stranger is already awake,
- 15:07Speaker 1: the one that had met him down by the river
- 15:09Speaker 1: and called him up to the house. And the boy says, hey,
- 15:12Speaker 1: can you walk me down back to the river, And
- 15:15Speaker 1: the stranger's like, I can take you part of the
- 15:16Speaker 1: way down, sure. So the two of them they're having
- 15:19Speaker 1: small talk, and you know, the boy's thanking the man
- 15:21Speaker 1: for his generosity, and so as they're walking, they're passing
- 15:25Speaker 1: by an orchard on one side and a cornfield on
- 15:27Speaker 1: the other, and it's this beautiful morning, the sun's just
- 15:30Speaker 1: coming up, and the boy remembers thinking how beautiful the
- 15:33Speaker 1: setting was, but he also was thinking, like, I don't
- 15:36Speaker 1: I don't even know where I am right now, and
- 15:38Speaker 1: I'm assuming he's walking me back to where I live.
- 15:41Speaker 1: But this doesn't look familiar at all, and the stranger stops.
- 15:45Speaker 1: They get to almost a junction right at the end
- 15:47Speaker 1: of the orchard and of the cornfield, and the stranger
- 15:50Speaker 1: tells the boy Wofford. He says, hey, just go straight.
- 15:52Speaker 1: You're going to turn down this way, turn back and
- 15:54Speaker 1: you'll be You'll be at the river again where we met.
- 15:57Speaker 1: And the boy thanks the stranger, and the stranger and
- 16:00Speaker 1: starts walking back towards his cabin and says, hey, good
- 16:02Speaker 1: luck sea, and the boy starts following the man's directions,
- 16:06Speaker 1: and Wawford. As he's walking, you know, following the stranger's directions,
- 16:11Speaker 1: he just he's suddenly curious and turns around to look
- 16:15Speaker 1: back at this strange person who had brought him up
- 16:19Speaker 1: to the house and then now brought him back, and
- 16:21Speaker 1: he's stunned because suddenly the orchard and the cornfield are
- 16:26Speaker 1: not there. There is no orchard or cornfield. It's just
- 16:31Speaker 1: deep dark forest and he's like, what's going on. He
- 16:34Speaker 1: turns back and there's a search party, or it looks
- 16:38Speaker 1: like a search party running up to him. Part of
- 16:40Speaker 1: the search party is the family friend that he had
- 16:43Speaker 1: seen at the house. And the boy's like looking at
- 16:46Speaker 1: these people running towards him, like they're running to him,
- 16:49Speaker 1: and he recognizes the family friend and he can tell
- 16:51Speaker 1: they're like urgently looking for him, and he felt bad
- 16:55Speaker 1: because he knows he slept over through the night. So
- 16:56Speaker 1: he's like, hey, I'm here, I'm here, and they're like,
- 16:59Speaker 1: where have you been? And the boy turns to the
- 17:02Speaker 1: family friend and he's like, didn't you tell them I
- 17:04Speaker 1: was with you? And the family friend is like, what
- 17:06Speaker 1: are you talking about? And he's like, yeah, the house
- 17:09Speaker 1: with the family. We ate dinner together last night. And
- 17:13Speaker 1: the guy, the family friend, is like, I've been looking
- 17:16Speaker 1: for you for the past several days. I've been with
- 17:19Speaker 1: your family looking for You've been gone for three days.
- 17:22Speaker 1: And the boy is like what. And as he's describing
- 17:25Speaker 1: the kind of general vicinity of where this cabin was,
- 17:29Speaker 1: he's kind of pointing back up towards where it was
- 17:31Speaker 1: and describing it from where the river was. The family
- 17:35Speaker 1: says to him that since you've been missing, we've heard
- 17:38Speaker 1: rhythmic drumming non stop coming from the section of the
- 17:42Speaker 1: forest that you just described. We can never pinpoint where
- 17:45Speaker 1: it was coming from. And now that you just showed up,
- 17:47Speaker 1: the drumming has stopped, and so the kid's terrified. But
- 17:50Speaker 1: there's no answers. Pretty creepy. So three very strange stories
- 17:55Speaker 1: that luckily all of them ended with the person being
- 17:58Speaker 1: found again, but it doesn't change the fact that the
- 18:01Speaker 1: mystery remains. Where did they go? It's like they left
- 18:05Speaker 1: the earth for a couple of days, or, in Stephen
- 18:07Speaker 1: Kubaki's case, for over a year and then came back.
- 18:11Speaker 1: It was like a you know, a glitch in the
- 18:12Speaker 1: matrix or something. And so I would love to hear
- 18:14Speaker 1: in the comments what you think can possibly explain how
- 18:18Speaker 1: these people are disappearing without a trace and then reappearing days, weeks, months,
- 18:23Speaker 1: years later, not having any idea how they got there
- 18:27Speaker 1: or what had happened to them. How can we possibly
- 18:29Speaker 1: reconcile that? And if you like this video and you
- 18:31Speaker 1: want to see more videos like this, I would ask
- 18:33Speaker 1: you to please gently perform a lobotomy on the like
