The most CONCERNING disappearance in history: the case of Oliver Thomas

The case of the disappearance of the child Oliver Thomas in Wales in 1900, is one of the best known as well as singular. It can be said that many data fall within the supernatural, and that the reliable sources available are only statements from family and neighbors that in those years, and in view of the unusual circumstances in which the child disappeared, they ended up giving more weight to the "magical" than to the concrete.

Today in Mysterious we want you to travel with us to a very specific point of the past: on December 24, 1909, in the small town of Brecon, in Wales. The story that happened here didn't I will leave you indifferent.

The most CONCERNING disappearance in history: the case of Oliver Thomas

The holidays the day before Christmas were celebrated as of custom in the town of Brecon, in Wales.The humility of its people, the family fondness and the smell of good food permeated normality some dates that did not intuit that the tragedy was about to happen.

Mrs.Thomas was an excellent cook, and it was usual that every year at that table about 15 people met, between they the doctor and the village veterinarian.According to the subsequent statements, the drama had its point of origin at the time the father of the family, seeing that there was no water left at the table, asked his son, Oliver, 11, who went to the well for a bucket.

Oliver Thomas, 11 years old

It was snowing outside, but for them it was normal to come and go to the well in search of water.especially far away and it was a task that children used to like.So Oliver, put on his boots, put on the scarf and went out the door of his house without knowing, that they would never come back to see it.

It was only 10 seconds.That is the time according to those people, it happened until the tranquility of that evening was broken with a heartbreaking scream of the child.After some screams of pain, Oliver's voice said the following: "Help, they take me away!"

The family, almost instinctively, came out outside with sticks and a shotgun fearing the worst.Now, when they went outside, they saw nothing.There was no sign of the child. Only the sepulchral silence and the warm dance of those snowflakes that they kept falling.

The father, in despair, followed his son's footprints in the snow, which could be perfectly distinguished from the door of the house in the direction of the well, but without reaching him, because halfway the tracks already they were not there.

According to the statement and the newspapers of the time, they heard again the cries of Oliver, and the family "pointed" to heaven: according to themselves, the voice The child was now heard from above , but unfortunately they could not see anything.No trace.Oliver Thomas never appeared, there were no clues, no body, no suspects...Something desperate for the family.

What conclusion was reached? That something could have taken him "from above."

However, and as happens in almost 60% of disappearances, and especially children, it was never known Nothing.Given the uniqueness of the case, theories of all kinds have not been lacking since then, and as the decades passed, the inevitable hypothesis increased that perhaps, something had to do with the UFO phenomenon.

Therefore, if you are looking for information on the case of Oliver Thomas, it will not take long to see this classic association, and the recurring theory that the boy who lost the night before Christmas could have been abducted by the aliens.

But let's go one step further, and let's talk about a curious theory that was taken into account throughout the 70s: Aguilas Giants .It tells the story that in 1977, in Michigan, a boy of about 6 years was attacked by two giant eagles that lifted him from the ground and were about to take him away, if it had not been for his mother.

We know that eagles may very well have enough strength to take animals of considerable weight, but it is somewhat strange that two birds allied with each other to kidnap a child, and even more, according to the mother, those eagles were "black." Lovers of cryptozoology soon said they could be "teratornids," relatives of the condor of the Andes , who disappeared about 10,000 years ago, and perhaps, the boy who disappeared in Wales in 1909 could also have been kidnapped by "prehistoric birds".

As you see, I ro Cambolesque of the case has no limits, and we certainly regret that a more thorough, more detailed investigation was not made, with which, to have more feasible hypotheses.However, the disappearance of a child is not unusual, unfortunately every year thousands are the little ones who also disappear without a trace leaving authentic dramas in those families, who see time go by without knowing anything.

So now tell us: What is your theory? What could have happened to little Oliver Thomas? Feel free to leave us your comments and remember also :
