Seven-year-old Richard went out sledding that day in 1935 in Ypsilanti, Michigan. He never returned home. He was later found stabbed to death in a nearby park. Decades later, and the police are no closer to solving this case. Was the perpetrator the boy who eventually found him? Or some degenerative in the area, it was the time of the Great Depression. Or were his parents somehow involved? After all, they didn't even discover him missing for hours after, as they were arguing about a pending divorce. Or maybe it was his wealthy grandfather? Rumors swirled he was involved in the mob. Many theories, but no answers. Richard was laid to rest, in an unmarked grave, and his parents moved away. Until decades later when funds were raised to give him the burial he deserved.

It is 1838 and John Anderson’s Liberty Street cigar shop was hopping with newspapermen of New York City. They weren’t there just to buy their cigars, but to buy their cigars and fawn over "The Cigar Girl" - Mary Rogers. In 1941, Mary went missing after a trip to New Jersey and her body was found near Sybil’s Cave, a bucolic Hudson riverside spot in Hoboken, New Jersey. Many speculations arose. Was it her fiance? Her ex fiance? Or could it have been her good friend Edgar Allan Poe?
