Trying to track down a person who is otherwise untraceable is sort of like, well, hunting for a ghost.

When experienced survivalist Sandra Hughes set off into the Sierra National Forest in the summer of 2020, she was simply seeking solitude and healing in the wilderness—a return to peace in a chaotic world. But what began as a solo trek quickly spiraled into one of the most chilling and inexplicable missing persons cases in recent memory.
In this episode of Haunts, Courtney explores the mysterious disappearance of Sandra Hughes—a woman well-equipped for the backcountry who nonetheless seemed to vanish into thin air. From the discovery of her wrecked campsite and scattered documents, to a bizarre car crash and a series of eerie sightings where she appeared dazed, barefoot, and silent, Sandra’s story unfolds like a ghost story wrapped in a survival tale.
And just when the trail runs cold, nature itself intervenes. A wildfire consumes the forest—and with it, any lingering hope for answers. Yet one year later, a new sighting near Shuteye Peak sends a shiver down the spine and reignites the question: what really happened to Sandra Hughes?
This isn’t just a case of someone lost in the woods. It’s a haunting mystery where each detail is more unsettling than the last, and where the line between disappearance and the paranormal becomes increasingly blurred.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
