Episode 174: The Drowning Men - From the Midwest to the Bayou

Across decades and miles, young men disappear along waterways, alone, intoxicated, and unseen, only to resurface lifeless, their final moments swallowed by the currents. From the Midwest’s Smiley Face cases to Houston’s 2025 bayou deaths, patterns of undetermined drownings, missing-time gaps, and disturbing similarities emerge. Families suspect foul play; authorities deny it. Water conceals, distorts, and erases evidence, leaving only questions. This episode explores the eerie parallels, forensic puzzles, and haunting secrets that America’s waterways refuse to reveal.Topic starts at [08:40]Get some Supernatural Occurrence Studies podcast gear and support the show! Shop our Merch Store!
