Pacific Northwest Missing Persons Project

By: Pacific Northwest Missing Persons Project
  • Summary

  • Each year 2,400 people, on average, get lost in the wilderness in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. 90% of those that become lost are found alive, 8 % are located deceased, and the other 2% simply vanish without a trace.

    Our host Tanner Hoskins, co-Founder of Pacific Northwest Bigfoot Search and Executive Director at Pacific Northwest Missing Persons Project (PNWMPP) shares the mysterious true stories of adults and children who inexplicably disappeared while recreating in the great outdoors of Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana.
    Tanner will share the stories of these missing persons as well as our own expeditions into the area these people were last seen or known to be.
    We hope that by telling these stories we can help foster a community driven in bringing answers and closure to these grieving families.

    Tanner will also share stories from our organization's own personal expeditions into the wilderness in search of signs of Sasquatch activity and following-up on reports of reported bigfoot activity.

  • PNWMPP Campfire Stories - Part 2 (Halloween Special)
    Oct 25 2024

    Send us a text

    This week’s podcast has to do with the strange, spooky, and true life horror stories that have been shared with our team via email from individuals who wanted to tell their hair-raising stories of either becoming lost and how they self-rescued or of strange things they witnessed and experienced while recreating in the great outdoors.

    This podcast episode is part two of two, and is shared in a campfire story format utilizing AI voiceover to narrate the story on behalf of the witnesses that have either asked to remain anonymous or did not leave a method for us to contact them for follow-up.

    Disclaimer: Most of these stories cannot be confirmed through our independent research tactics and, as with any story that is told and shared, we encourage you to listen with open ears, an open mind, and with a little bit of skepticism.

    Skepticism is how curiosity grows and provides us with our own search for answers when something doesn’t sound realistic or familiar to us.

    We hope you enjoy this week's episode.

    - Tanner Hoskins
    Executive Director, PNWMPP
