00:00:00 Speaker 1: Every hunter knows that the wilderness is full of surprises. Sometimes what you find out there isn't an elk or a bear, it's something darker. 00:00:15 Speaker 2: They never made sense what law enforcement was saying to us. How could she have just gone down there and accidentally died? How could there have been no marks on her? 00:00:26 Speaker 3: All theories are out there, you know, everything from murder to ufollows to Bigfoot. 00:00:31 Speaker 1: This season on Blood Trails were following the trail of seven cases that start in the field and end in the shadows, where missing persons reports, half buried evidence, and whispered suspicions blur the line between hunting story and homicide. 00:00:45 Speaker 4: I just instantly started freaking out, yelling to the world, what's going on? I yelled, help. I mean, I'm out in the middle of nowhere. 00:00:55 Speaker 5: I had no idea what was going on. 00:00:57 Speaker 1: From the frozen woods of Maine to the mountains of Montana, from an archery opener gone wrong in Wisconsin to a father's last walk through the Minnesota deer woods, each story begins with a hunter stepping into the wild, but not all of them come back. 00:01:11 Speaker 5: You know, you just got an empty feeling. What do you say he's not here with us and all that was hot. 00:01:18 Speaker 1: I'm Jordan Sillers. Join me as we track the truth through tangled cover and cold case files, where every trail tells a story, and every story leaves its own trail of blood.
