Brittany Wallace Shank: What We Were Told vs. What We Found Out (Bonus Series Trailer)
For the first time, you'll hear Brittany Wallace Shank's own voice from the day she disappeared — and what the people closest to her said when they didn't think anyone was listening.This summer, Hide and Seek returns to Brittany's case with a bonus series built on what we never had the first time: newly obtained interviews — audio and video — and a case file that runs right up to today. Her final 911 call. What her husband answered, and what he wouldn't. A man who told police one story, and the truth another. What we were told. What we found out. The lies we uncovered.New here? Start with Season 3. It's the full story of Brittany's disappearance from Sturgis, Michigan — and it'll make everything coming this summer land, with no catching up required.And to everyone waiting on Season 5: it's still a full go. I'm actively working that case right now. The plan is Brittany's bonus series this summer, with Season 5 tentatively eyeing a late-2026 start. No firm date yet — but I'm not stepping away from it. If you want to put a little toward making it happen, there's a Season 5 production fund on Ko-fi.Want to go deeper? Patreon is home base — behind-the-scenes, and the video interviews are coming there too. Come go deeper with us, and help keep the search for Brittany alive.And if someone's come to mind while you've been listening — someone from back then, someone who knew her, someone who knows something — this is the episode to send them.Follow so you don't miss the drop:Catch up on Season 3: https://www.hideandseekpodcast.com/seasons/season-3Go deeper on Patreon (video interviews coming): https://www.patreon.com/hideandseekpodcastSupport the Season 5 production fund (Ko-fi): https://ko-fi.com/hideandseekpodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hideandseekpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/hideandseekpodcastYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hideandseek_podcastTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hideandseekpodcastFollow James: https://www.instagram.com/james_baysinger_podcast
