0h 0m Every year, hundreds of people go missing under baffling conditions in the woods of North America. Former police detective David Politis has written a book series called Missing 411, where he investigates these strange cases. In this video, three particularly bizarre cases from the Missing 411 series are discussed.

0h 1m The first case involves an eight-year-old girl named Catherine who went missing in Devil’s Den State Park in Arkansas in 1946. Catherine was swimming in a creek with her brothers when she drifted into a deep section. A woman saved her, but when Catherine’s father looked away for a moment, she disappeared. After an extensive search, Catherine was found six days later, seven miles away from where she went missing. She had survived on her own in the wild, covering a distance of approximately 30 miles barefoot.

0h 7m The second case involves six-year-old Hayley Zaga, who went missing in the Upper Buffalo Wilderness Area in Arkansas in 2001. Hayley was hiking with her grandparents when she insisted on going to see a waterfall. Her grandparents refused, and Hayley threw a tantrum. They continued walking, expecting her to follow, but she never did. After an extensive search, Hayley was found 51 hours later, sitting next to a brook. She claimed to have been helped by an imaginary friend named Alicia, who led her through the wilderness.

0h 13m The third case involves Linda Ortega, who went missing in the Buffalo River National Park in Arkansas in 2012. Linda and her brother Eddie got lost while searching for a fishing spot. Eddie eventually found his way out, but Linda remained lost. She was found three days later, confused and with no memory of how she got there. She described encountering a group of people or things in the woods who seemed to be watching her. Her memories of the experience are fragmented and unclear.

These cases highlight the mysterious nature of disappearances in the woods, with strange circumstances and unexplained phenomena.
