Descripción

Maine is a place where the GPS cuts out and the wilderness takes over — a landscape of deep forests, forgotten logging roads, and secrets older than memory. Tonight we explore five real disappearances where people stepped into the Maine woods… and were never seen again. From a boy on a red tricycle to a hunter whose tracks simply stopped in the snow, from a grieving widow on the Appalachian Trail to a young man swallowed by the timberlands, and finally a quiet homeowner who vanished without a trace — each story reveals a different face of mystery. Some cases feel like wilderness tragedies. Others hint at something darker. All of them leave behind the same haunting question: How can a person vanish so completely that no trace of them is ever found? If you enjoy the episode please follow and rate the show.

The Faceless Woman of Silver Lake: A True Maine Haunting

CW: Descriptions of violence Is Sarah Ware still searching for justice? Or is something older wearing her shape? In 1898, Bucksport, Maine was shaken by the brutal and still‑unsolved murder of Sarah Ware. More than a century later, witnesses continue to report chilling encounters around — and beneath — the waters of Silver Lake. In this episode, we explore the life and death of Sarah MacDonald Ware, the investigation that failed to bring her killer to justice, and the decades of ghostly sightings that followed. From Almira Miles’ early claims of spectral knocks to modern encounters on the lake’s hiking trails, Sarah’s story refuses to fade. Featuring a special voiceover from Maine author and researcher Nomar Slevik, this episode seeks to uncover what might still linger in the dark waters of Silver Lake.

Acadia After Dark Fogcast Episode 35: Locating the Lost

Tonight’s Fogcast brought in two guests who know the darker corners of Maine better than most. Travis Hartford and Jeff Atwood, the voices behind Locating the Lost, joined me to talk about their work uncovering the stories behind missing persons and cold cases throughout New England. Their podcast blends interviews, live case discussions, and deep‑dive investigations to give a voice to those who’ve gone silent. We talked about the cases that haunt them, the rumors that swirl through small towns, and some eerie moments they’ve encountered while chasing the truth.
