On May 8, 2008, Joshua \u201cJosh\u201d Maddux, 18, left his house to take a walk. He was a nature lover, so this was nothing unusual. He was never seen alive again. Seven years later, in August 2015, less than a mile away from Josh\u2019s home, property developer Chuck Murphy was demolishing an old wood cabin to make way for 32 new family homes. The cabin hadn\u2019t been used in years and the inside was damp and rotten. Work to demolish the chimney inside the cabin started and to the surprise of the demolition team, crammed inside the brickwork was a mummified body, which later was confirmed as Joshua. His body was naked apart from a thin shirt and his clothes were neatly stacked inside the cabin. Submit your stories: popmediaagency@gmail.com
