#15: The Vanishing of Ambrose Bierce

You probably heard of Edgar Allan Poe. Well, Ambrose Bierce, an 1800s horror writer and journalist, has a less-known yet fascinating tale. Unlike his works, his mysterious disappearance truly captivates, making his life story an enigma wrapped in mystery.

In 1913, at 71, Bierce vanished after sending a letter from Mexico. Theories about his fate abound – suicide, murder by political foes, or a romantic demise in New York due to asthma. With such intrigue, it’s a wonder his story hasn’t hit the screens yet.
