In 1978, five men mysteriously disappeared on a mountain in California. Tragically, a month later, most of their bodies were discovered. Kyle and I actually covered this story in season one… but we were just novices at podcasting, not that we’re professionals at this point, but our audio quality has gotten better and we thought it would be good to revisit this unsolved case.

The strange circumstances surrounding their deaths have since been referred to as the American Dyatlov Pass Incident. The mystery, heartbreak, twists and turns, and the numerous unanswered questions likens this case to a group of 9 Russian hikers that were found dead under mysterious circumstances in the Ural Mountains in 1959. There have been countless television shows, movies, and podcasts about that case. In fact, there’s a recent documentary called, “An Unknown Compelling Force” available on Amazon Prime. With all the information available about that incident, we will not be covering it here. We will, however, share what is known about the Yuba county 5 story in just a moment.

Before we jump into the episode, we wanted to provide the I Want to Believe social media & email links.

My brand-new book, We Only Come Out at Night, is now available for purchase. This book is a collection of short horror stories and can be found online at: SlevikStore.Company.Site and at the Green Hand Bookshop.
