8 NEW Most Disturbing TRUE Alaskan Small Town Horror Stories _ Episode 02 _ Buried Files

from Buried Files · host Buried Files

In the raw, breathtaking wilderness of Alaska, beauty and terror are inseparable. The state holds the highest rate of missing persons in the nation, with over 20,000 people vanishing in the infamous Alaska Triangle alone since the 1970s [citation:1][citation:2][citation:15]. For the isolated small towns scattered across this vast, unforgiving land, the danger isn't just a legend—it's a daily reality woven into the fabric of their history.In this new episode, we unearth eight deeply disturbing true stories from Alaska's most remote communities. We journey to the abandoned settlement of Port Chatham, where the entire population fled in terror from the Nantiinaq, a creature so fearsome its legend forced a town to die [citation:11]. We explore the chilling case of Teddy Kyle Smith, an Iñupiaq man who claimed his violent rampage was guided by the Iñukuns, malevolent "little people" from his native folklore [citation:4]. We also investigate the brutal crimes of Robert Hansen, the "Butcher Baker," a seemingly ordinary family man who abducted and hunted women in the Alaskan wilderness for over a decade, leaving a trail of victims the authorities failed to see [citation:9]. From the ghostly legends of Talkeetna, one of the state's most paranormally active towns [citation:6], to the haunting "memory-card murders" of two Native Alaskan women, whose deaths were captured on film [citation:14], these are the stories that prove the darkness of Alaska's past is as chilling and vast as its frozen landscape.
