About this episode

With unexplained on a short break for the holiday season we’ll be dipping back into the archive for one more week.

In this week’s episode we return to Bennington, Vermont, where between 1945–1950, four people vanished without trace in an area dubbed the Bennington Triangle, so called, because of the many strange and weird occurrences said to have taken place there.

In 1946, 18-year-old Paula Jean Weldon became the second of those four people to disappear, in a case one investigator described as the most baffling he ever came across.
