About this episode

The Bear On TV Was Still Looking For Children In this episode, we delve into a terrifying recovered-memory account about a childhood abduction, a hidden facility, and a children’s television show that may have been used to reach new victims years later. Case: The Bear Costume Abduction Date: 1985 / August 14, 1999 Location: Unknown / Children’s television broadcast Status: Unresolved Event: Childhood abduction and resurfaced predator Phrase: “Bad kids stay up late” Witness: Former victim and his son Connor An eleven-year-old boy was abducted during a sleepover at Anthony Hampton’s house. A chemical smell entered the room after a voice whispered, “Bad kids stay up late.” He woke in a locked room with bones, a caged microphone, and the phrase carved into the wall. A man in a bear costume controlled the room and forced him to follow strange rules. The boy escaped during a fire by crawling through a vent. Fourteen years later, he saw the same bear costume on a children’s TV show inviting kids to write letters. Tired of ads? Listen to this podcast and 200+ more ad-free on OBOMEDIA.
