In the state of Vermont, there is a mysterious place called the Long Pass. The bad fame of these lands arose because of the people that dissolve in it without a trace.
In November 1945, Middie Rivers disappeared. An elderly woman went to hunt deer in the forest near the Long Pass. Like any experienced hunter, she was perfectly oriented in this area and could not get lost. But Middy never returned from the hunt. The police and local residents thoroughly combed the forest and found no tracks.
In December 1946, 18-year-old Paula Welden disappeared. The day before, she had informed her roommate in the student dormitory that she was going for a walk. A little later she was met by a local journalist whom the girl asked to show the way to the Long Pass …
In December 1949, a certain James Telford left home and did not return. He was also seen near the ill-fated pass …
In early 1950, Frida Langer disappeared without a trace. According to reviews of her friends, this woman knew the area well and could hardly get lost in the mountains.
Martha Jones sank into oblivion in November 1950. In Virginia, she had a friend, and therefore loved ones at first did not worry about her fate, confident that she was spending time with her lover. Later it turned out that the boyfriend had not seen Marta for a long time.
In December 1950, one of the local residents named Frank Christman called his friend and said that he would come to him. Several hours later, the friend was worried about Frank's long absence. It turned out that he left the house, but since then no one has met him.
On May 12, 1951, the body of one of the missing women, Frida Langer, was found in a forest clearing. The police concluded that someone had brought it in and put it down, since the search teams that had investigated the place earlier had found nothing there.

It is noteworthy that all the disappearances took place in late autumn - early winter. According to one version, the missing were killed by a maniac who committed his crimes at a certain time of the year, when he had an exacerbation of his mental illness. According to another version, sectarians were involved in the case.
But no matter how much the police investigated, they never managed to get on the trail of the truth. It is also strange that some of the victims, such as Paula Welden and James Telford, ended up in the Long Pass with a completely unclear purpose - perhaps someone made an appointment there? In that case, who is this mysterious stranger killing people and why could they not catch him?
There is also a hypothesis that the Long Pass is an anomalous zone with the property of attracting living beings to itself, but what kills them remains a mystery. Paranormal experts do not rule out the possibility of time lapses and portals to other worlds.
Old-timers claim that people in those parts have been disappearing for a long time and continue to disappear to this day under inexplicable circumstances and advise to stay away from this damned place.
