About this episode
1980- Manchester, New Hampshire.
The hallway was unusually dark as Judith Rahn stepped inside her apartment building in Manchester, New Hampshire. It was around 1am, and she was returning home to her 14-year-old daughter, Laureen, after a night out.
Immediately, she knew something was wrong. Laureen wasn’t home. In fact, the young teen had just... vanished.
Little did Judith know, she was about to be thrust into an agonizing journey of unexplained phone calls, and rumors of cults, pornography, and sex hotlines to find her missing daughter—a journey that would span over 40 years and counting.
This is the bizarre 1980 disappearance of Lauren Rahn, and a mother's endless quest for answers.
