On March 8, 2014, Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 took off from Kuala Lumpur International Airport and began flying in the direction of Beijing Capital International Airport in China. Less than an hour after the flight had taken off without incident, the captain confirmed his position with Malaysian air traffic control and wished them a goodnight as the plane crossed over into Vietnamese airspace. Those goodnight wishes would be the last radio communication anyone ever received from the plane. Only two minutes after those goodnight wishes, flight 370 disappeared from air traffic control radar screens, and neither the plane nor any of the 239 people on board have been seen or heard from since.In this episode, I’ve decided to share a very creepy and infuriating mystery with you. What exactly was the plan flight MH370 was supposed to follow that day back in 2014, and just how drastically did it deviate from those plans? What are the various theories (other than my personal one of alien abduction) that have been put forward to explain the little we actually know about this incident? Is it possible that this was truly some kind of bizarre accident…or was it simply the willful and malicious intent of someone on board, maybe even one of the pilots? And of course, the question I had when I first heard about this case: How in the hell is it possible for an entire Boeing 777 jet with 239 people on board to just…disappear? I’ll provide some responses to these questions, but not necessarily answers, because the answers in this case are really hard to find amidst all the damn questions.  I’ll also talk a little about mysterious plane disappearances in the landscape of the fictional horror world, and I’ve even found a little bedtime story which presents a rather sci-fi theory on the whereabouts of MH370 for you to entertain. Why provide you with more questions than answers for once? Because everyone loves an unsettling mystery, and though the actual disappearance of 239 human beings is tragic, the idea of one of the biggest jets flying the skies literally disappearing into thin air is pretty Creeptastic.See visuals for this episode on https://www.instagram.com/carolinesayang/ (Instagram)!Become a https://www.patreon.com/creeptastic (Patreon) of Creeptastic to access bonus weekly and monthly content!Contact me and find links to social media at https://creeptastic.com/ (Creeptastic.com)!
