Hello everyone and welcome back to Scary Interesting.

In this video, we're going to go over three more cases of people who completely vanished in a short period of time,

and despite almost immediate and extensive searches, not a single trace of them has been found.

Well, almost, you'll see what I mean in the final story.

As always, viewer discretion is advised.

On Friday, September 25th, 1981, Thelma Pauline Melton was walking along the Deep Creek Trail in the Great Smoky

Mountain's National Park in Tennessee. This was an area she'd been coming to every summer

for almost 20 years, and so it was a trail she was familiar with and had walked many times.

At the time, Thelma was 58 and retired, and she was walking with two friends of hers who were

part of a group that was staying in the campground together. At about 4 p.m., as they walked along, her two friends teased her a little

bit because she seemed to be walking slower than normal and was falling a bit behind. Then, as

if two show them up, Thelma sped up and passed them. They then commented on how fast she was now

going, and Thelma looked back and laughed and kept going. When she was about

75 yards from them, she crested a small hill and then was out of sight, and strangely, this was

the last time Thelma was ever seen. As they got to the hill a few seconds later, they expected to see

her along the pathway, but there was no sign of her. It is a heavily forced to trail with some

twists and turns and small

hails, so that wasn't all that weird. Then, not thinking much of it, they figured she just

returned to the trailer where her husband Robert was. So they continued on and reached the trailer

less than 30 minutes later, only to find that she wasn't there either, and Robert hadn't seen her

since they left. Getting slightly more alarmed by then, Robert made some calls to see if she'd gone to any

of the trailers nearby.
