For the first time, you'll hear Brittany Wallace Shank's own voice from the day she disappeared â and what the people closest to her said when they didn't think anyone was listening.
This summer, Hide and Seek returns to Brittany's case with a bonus series built on what we never had the first time: newly obtained interviews â audio and video â and a case file that runs right up to today. Her final 911 call. What her husband answered, and what he wouldn't. A man who told police one story, and the truth another. What we were told. What we found out. The lies we uncovered.
New here? Start with Season 3. It's the full story of Brittany's disappearance from Sturgis, Michigan â and it'll make everything coming this summer land, with no catching up required.
And to everyone waiting on Season 5: it's still a full go. I'm actively working that case right now. The plan is Brittany's bonus series this summer, with Season 5 tentatively eyeing a late-2026 start. No firm date yet â but I'm not stepping away from it. If you want to put a little toward making it happen, there's a Season 5 production fund on Ko-fi.
Want to go deeper? Patreon is home base â behind-the-scenes, and the video interviews are coming there too. Come go deeper with us, and help keep the search for Brittany alive.
And if someone's come to mind while you've been listening â someone from back then, someone who knew her, someone who knows something â this is the episode to send them.

The clock ticks in the shadows as secrets claw their way to the surface. In this gripping chapter of Hide and Seek, James (Baysinger) plunges into the chaos surrounding Shane Barton's disappearance, unraveling a story where every answer spawns two more questions. The text messages, the arguments, the desperate pleasâthey all carry the weight of something just out of reach, like a voice in the dark whispering warnings too late to hear.
Rachel Barton, raw and relentless, opens a window into a fractured past, piecing together memories of love, frustration, and eerie silence. Shaneâs phone is a treasure chest of cluesâcryptic messages, unsettling patterns, and sudden shifts that feel more like cracks in a frozen lake
Tension twists tighter with every revelation. Financial strains that snap like frayed ropes, family ties that bind too tightly, and a lingering questionâwas this escape, betrayal, or something far worse? The answers feel close enough to touch, but just as elusive as Shane himself.
The truth is waiting, hidden in the spaces between the lines. But when it reveals itself, will we be ready?
A single unopened text sits like a ticking bomb in Shaneâs phone. What did it say, and why didnât he reply? - Laat meer zien
