In 1998, 23-year-old Amy Lynn Bradley vanished from a Royal Caribbean cruise without a trace. One moment she was dancing at the ship’s nightclub, strong, vibrant, and ready to start a new job back home. Hours later, she was gone. No body. No note. Just a string of chilling alleged sightings across the Caribbean, an ocean of unanswered questions, and a family still searching for the truth.
This week on Dead Diary, we are cutting through the noise to unpack the essential facts behind one of the most disturbing missing persons cases of our time. The case is back in the spotlight thanks to the new Netflix documentary Amy Bradley is Missing. From suspicious cruise ship protocols to bizarre sightings and cruel scams, this episode dives deep into the haunting disappearance that has baffled investigators for over 25 years.
Was Amy kidnapped? Trafficked? Did she choose to disappear, or did someone make that choice for her?
