Every single year, Americans and international visitors visit national parks to partake in wholesome outdoors activities. They hike, fish, hunt, and go camping. It's fun, wholesome activity.
National parks are considered to be one of the healthiest places to go, and that's why so many families visit them every single year. But, as wholesome and safe as people assume national parks to be, there seems to be a rarely-discussed dark side to these places that most people don't seem aware of.
More specifically, it's the fact that strange disappearances in national parks seem to be way more frequent than they should be. Every year, hundreds of cases of strange disappearances happen. Only a handful are ever seen again.
Moreover, the disappearances that happen often seem totally illogical, bizarre, or unexplainable — even to those who are highly equipped to solve mysteries.
The phenomenon was first covered in Missing 411, by researcher David Paulides. Here are some of the more chilling cases that Paulides and others uncovered, all of which happened in America's national parks.
