What really happened? The case in Dateline: A Walk Through The Woods

It all started as a regular day. Just two best friends, enjoying the outdoors, walking across an old bridge. But then, they disappear. Panic set in fast, and the search was on.

Before long, investigators found a crucial clue. What surfaced was a Snapchat photo proving the girls had been on the bridge. But where did they go after that?

One of the girls sensed something was off. She had the instinct to start recording. And she caught a man on video. His voice was recorded too. Someone asks in the episode trailer:

“We’ve got a picture of the man. We’ve got his voice. Where is this guy?”

That’s basically the question everyone’s been asking.

Dateline: A Walk Through The Woods - The theories and dead ends

The case gets even more complicated, as shown in the trailer. Just when we think it can't get any creepier, we are presented with even more shocking details.

On the other hand, roadblocks kept popping up. Just when it seemed like there was a breakthrough, investigators were faced with another dead end. Two people in the trailer say the same thing. Investigators chased down lead after lead. But they only hit wall after wall. There was a lot of frustration.

And then came the wild theories. Was this just a random crime, or was there something darker to it?

Some people even suggested there was a ritualistic element. There were sticks found arranged in a pattern at the scene. And this only fueled stranger speculations. Another idea that surfaced in the case was that the suspect might have been hiding right under everyone’s noses.

However, there was a suspect that was named. A sketch of the man even appeared in the trailer. But the man swears he had nothing to do with it.

Well, by now it's clear as day that the story has some major holes. Viewers are left wondering if there is more to the case that hasn't been discovered yet.
