3 People Vanished the Same Night—One Civic Theatre Connected Them All

On September 12, 1982, three people vanished from the Lewiston–Clarkston Valley: Kristina Nelson, Jacqueline “Brandy” Miller, and Steven Pearsall. Steven was last known to have entered the Lewiston Civic Theatre. Kristina and Brandy disappeared during the same night, and investigators later examined possible connections between their movements, the theatre, and other unresolved cases in the region. Two years later, the remains of Kristina and Brandy were discovered near Kendrick, Idaho. Steven has never been found. What happened that night? Were the three disappearances connected—and does the Lewiston Civic Theatre hold an overlooked piece of the mystery?
