Part 1 of 2 | THE BLACK COAST VANISHINGS : Piha’s Haunting Mystery | True Scary Stories

In the shadow of Lion Rock, the seaside village of Piha has become the setting for one of New Zealand’s most unsettling mysteries. Since 1992, six people have vanished without a trace along its black-sand beaches and windswept cliffs — including a young woman last seen speaking to a streetlight before walking into the night. Some cases hint at tragic missteps, others at something far more sinister. With theories ranging from mental illness to murder to Māori legend, the Black Coast Vanishings have left a community divided and afraid. This is the story of Piha — a place where beauty hides danger, and people disappear.SURVEYObscurata Discussed FACEBOOK GROUPThe BOOKBY US A COFFEESubscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITESource Information:https://www.odt.co.nz/lifestyle/magazine/black-coast-vanishingshttps://www.hauntedauckland.com/site/piha-beach-hauntings/https://justwatch.com/nz/tv-show/the-black-coast-vanishingshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Iraena_Asherhttps://newzealandmissing.wordpress.com/2015/08/10/cherie-vousden-missing-person-piha-2012/https://interactives.stuff.co.nz/2019/05/black-coast-vanishings/https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/black-coast-vanishings-why-do-people-go-missing-in-piha/6G7WAVU2W5EVDK2AGT2AIKQZSM/Thanks so much for listening, and I'll catch up with you again next Tuesday.Sarah & Rog xxSURVEY https://podcastsurvey.typeform.com/to/mDi5IVFf Hosted on Acast.
