About Hide and Seek

The Disappearance of Shane Barton On March 9, 2023, Shane Barton vanished from his home in Rochester, Washington. No phone. No wallet. No trace. Just... gone. This season on Hide and Seek, we unravel the mystery of Shane's disappearance. We explore the moments leading up to that fateful day—was his vanishing an act of free will, a tragic accident, or the result of something far more sinister? The haunting questions leave us wondering: Did Shane walk away from his life, or does a far darker truth lie hidden beneath the surface?

And the footage he sent to explain it is shot in the dark, night footage. The Taco Bell in it sits dark, and the McDonald's is still lit and serving. That's not even. That's late. There are exactly two nights inside that box. The small hours after Thursday's open door or the night of November 30th into the morning of December 1st. One of those two nights is the night Brittany Wallishake vanished. His thread can't pick between them. […]
