A young hiker disappeared without a trace in the Smoky Mountains. Her smile lit up the trails, her friends described her as a force of unstoppable energy. That morning, she was wearing her favorite yellow jacket and a light backpack... they never imagined it would be the last time they would see her walking among the trees.
For weeks, volunteers and rescuers combed the mountain, tracker dogs sniffed every corner, helicopters circled the forest. Nothing. Not a footprint. Not a single object. Nature had swallowed the young woman, and over time, the case fell silent, filed away as another unsolved mystery.
But two years later, a group of loggers working in an isolated area of the park stumbled upon something impossible to forget: an old wooden structure hidden in the undergrowth. Inside, what looked like an altar. And on top of it... a body completely covered in a shiny, hardened substance, almost like glass.
The officers could hardly believe their eyes. The face was barely recognizable, the body encapsulated in some kind of resin, as if someone had wanted to preserve it forever. A ritual? A sacrifice? Or something even more disturbing?
The discovery shook the community, and the investigation revealed details that left everyone breathless…
