- 0:04Speaker 1: The tragic disappearance of pretty seventeen year old Kelly Wilson
- 0:07Speaker 1: has thrown the small town of Gilmour, Texas into turmoil.
- 0:11Speaker 2: While police keep a watchful eye on what some see
- 0:13Speaker 2: as a story just beginning to unfold, others focus in fear.
- 0:17Speaker 3: The Kelly Wilson thing is not first and then she
- 0:19Speaker 3: would tell me and the kids if we opened our
- 0:21Speaker 3: mouth about anything, that she would do as the same wife.
- 0:24Speaker 2: She told us that they knew the older boys knew
- 0:27Speaker 2: how to kill and field with a baby.
- 0:30Speaker 1: A baby, a baby, Yes, Sir.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Kelly Wilson was a high school senior from the small
- 0:38Speaker 2: town of Gilmour, Texas.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Everyone thought we were so bad. We were trying to
- 0:42Speaker 1: the party group. You know.
- 0:43Speaker 3: We were going to parties together, or going to the
- 0:45Speaker 3: lake together, or doing all those fun things silly girls
- 0:48Speaker 3: did back in the nineties. She's had huge blue eyes
- 0:51Speaker 3: that were just staring into your.
- 0:53Speaker 1: So she could go up to a perfect stranger striker conversation,
- 0:57Speaker 1: just like she'd known them all over life.
- 0:59Speaker 2: On January fifth, nineteen ninety two, Kelly was at work.
- 1:03Speaker 2: It was dark outside. By the time she and her
- 1:06Speaker 2: boss closed up for the night.
- 1:07Speaker 1: We go out the back. Gill set the alarm. I
- 1:10Speaker 1: say you opened tomorrow, and she said yes. I said, ok, Elsey.
- 1:14Speaker 2: But Kelly was never seen again. I was a kid
- 1:17Speaker 2: when she disappeared. I've spent the past thirty years wondering
- 1:21Speaker 2: what happened. Who to believe? What's rumor? What's madness on
- 1:27Speaker 2: Jack Street?
- 1:27Speaker 1: You don't have to go far to find someone who
- 1:29Speaker 1: knows about the allegation. Yes, there was devil worship in Mcinnewood.
- 1:33Speaker 1: Shock your coscious. It's most bizarreb thing ever in Well.
- 1:37Speaker 1: They were kidnapping teenage hitchhiker girls. They were sacrificing babies.
- 1:43Speaker 1: They were in cannibalism.
- 1:45Speaker 2: A local girl plucked off the streets and eaten by Satanists.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Two years after the search for Kelly began, eight people
- 1:52Speaker 2: from Gilmour were indicted for her kidnapping and her murder.
- 1:56Speaker 2: They were accused of unspeakable crimes, rocking allegations turned neighbor
- 2:02Speaker 2: against neighbor.
- 2:03Speaker 1: I have children. There's a lot of people in this
- 2:05Speaker 1: community that have children.
- 2:07Speaker 2: Gets scary, So.
- 2:08Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you.
- 2:09Speaker 2: Really frightened me. I mean a little town like this,
- 2:12Speaker 2: you can just imagine what impact it had. Despite the
- 2:17Speaker 2: criminal indictments and the national infamy that followed, no one
- 2:21Speaker 2: was ever brought to justice for Kelly's disappearance. Was it
- 2:25Speaker 2: a cover up, incompetence or forces too dark for one
- 2:29Speaker 2: town to reckon with. Whatever the reason, it's been three decades,
- 2:35Speaker 2: dead or alive, Kelly Wilson has never been found.
- 2:38Speaker 1: I think that they damaged what should have been a
- 2:42Speaker 1: real investigation into her disappearance, and it's just just a shame.
- 2:46Speaker 1: It's a shame.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Kelly's case went cold long ago, but now people are
- 2:50Speaker 2: starting to ask questions again, and I think we're closer
- 2:54Speaker 2: than ever to finding real answers.
- 2:57Speaker 3: It's much bigger than anybody could anticipate. If one girl
- 3:01Speaker 3: could expose what's going on and bring that many powerful
- 3:05Speaker 3: people down, she's not gonna survive. Kelly was snatched off
- 3:11Speaker 3: the Gilmer Square. She was a sweet young girl. It
- 3:14Speaker 3: wasn't a random act. We all know it wasn't random,
- 3:18Speaker 3: so that means there had to be a reason behind it.
- 3:21Speaker 1: It's almost saw something in a crazy fictional story. Just
- 3:25Speaker 1: so many twists and turns, and it is so sensational.
- 3:29Speaker 1: From seven years old, my head's been full of devil worshiping, killers, cannibalism,
- 3:36Speaker 1: sexual misconduct.
- 3:39Speaker 2: From Imperative Entertainment. I'm West Ferguson. This is Deviltown. Listen
- 3:51Speaker 2: wherever you get your podcasts.
