And the The Oh, Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of the Strange Matters podcast.

Your Strange Matters, we discuss everything that is mysterious, bizarre, and unexplained.

I am Sean and I will be the host for this episode. In this episode of Strange Matters,

I will be talking about the disappearance of Lars Matank and the strange series of events that

led up to this man's sudden disappearance.

This story involves a young German man who was on a holiday vacation with some friends.

Though described as the average and normal person, Lars would exhibit a few instances of behavior during this trip, that his friend said was quite uncharacteristic of him.

Lars would last be seen sprinting frantically out of an airport in Bulgaria right before his flight home, and no trace of him has ever been found since.

In this episode I will be presenting the backstory leading up to this bizarre disappearance and any possible ideas as to what in the world happened that could cause such a strange mystery.

Verder Bremen, the Green Whites.
