Summary

At the time of her disappearance, 27 year old Holly Clark was pursuing her dream to be a professional musician in Hamilton, Ontario. However suddenly, and with little warning, she seemed to find herself on the brink of crisis.  On the morning of January 10th, 2020 Holly phoned her parents in Calgary to request help returning home. During the call Holly would share the frightening, yet vague, details of a traumatic experience that led her to spending the prior night running for her life from either a real or imagined threat.  It was obvious she needed help but shortly before her father arrived, she walked out of her apartment and into the cold air and pouring rain.  In this episode of Nighttime we will be joined by journalist Tyler Hooper for a discussion centering on the striking similarities between Holly Clark’s story and that of Emma Fillipoff’s.  Links referenced in the episode: Holly Clark Search Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2477332942595668/  Holly Clark Search Go Fund Me: https://www.gofundme.com/f/bring-holly-home-supporting-the-ellsworthclarks Holly Clark’s Bandcamp: https://hollyclark.bandcamp.com/ Help Find Emma Fillipoff Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/HelpFindEmmaFillipoff/http://www.helpfindemmafillipoff.com/ Report Tips and Information on Holly’s disappearance: Hamilton Police: 905-546-4925  Holly Clark Search Email: bringhollyhome2020@gmail.com Credits: Musical Theme: Rain on the Side by Paragon Cause https://www.paragoncause.com/  Contact: Website: https://www.nighttimepodcast.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/NightTimePod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NightTimePod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nighttimepod Email: NightTimePodcast@gmail.com Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/nighttimepodcast Premium Feed: https://www.patreon.com/Nighttimepodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome back to nighttime's coverage of the disappearance of Holly Ellsworth Clark.

0:33.0

When we last met, we were joined by Ell, who was both Holly's employer and one of the driving forces beyond the search for her.

Tonight, in the third part of this series we're going to shift our

0:45.5

attention to something that simply has to be addressed. That being the

0:50.4

striking similarities between Holly's story and that of another covered on this show,

0:56.2

the 2012 disappearance of then 26 year old Amofilopov.

1:01.8

To me as soon as I learned of Holly's story from the earliest news reports, it

1:06.3

hit me like a tragic case of deja vu. A missing young woman, an artist who after a period of unusual behavior places a disturbing

phone call home requesting a plane ticket. The police are called, they don't

intervene, and before the family arrives the young woman walks off into the cold air

And now that I've covered Holly's case on the show, the messages have increased substantially.

1:52.6

This topic, the topic being the similarities between these two cases, is well worth a discussion.

1:59.0

And that's what this episode's about.

2:01.3

To join me in this, I've reached out to my friend Tyler Hooper, who like me, has dove deep into

2:06.6

Emma Philipov's case in the past.

2:10.0

But before Tyler and I get to it, I just want to make a few things clear.
