This month’s missing persons case strays a bit from our normal cases here at the Morbid Library. And by that, I mean that it is a case with a cult following and extensive coverage. Because I use October to cover things that have held my attention for a long time, this is the only time [...]

The Missing: Michael Negrete
This month’s missing persons case is one that has always grabbed my attention. It has all the makings of a case with a cult following like Maura Murray or Bryce Laspisa.

The Unnamed: Sebastian Pasqual
This month's Doe case is an especially strange one - we possibly know what his name was, because investigators found someone that knew him in life. And you may notice that I’m using “he” instead of “they” in this post - that’s because we know how the Doe identified his gender in life. How did [...]
