In June of 1994, 13-year-old Nicholas Barclay was reported missing by his mother. He was supposed to return home from a nearby park before dinner, but Nicholas disappeared without a trace. There were no signs of the teenager until his mother received a phone call over three years later from authorities in Spain. They said that they had found her missing son, that he’d been held captive and abused for the last several years. Nicholas’ family couldn’t believe that he was alive and coming back to them. However, when Nicholas returned to Texas with his family, people noticed that things were off, that something didn’t fit. People began to question if this was really Nicholas Barclay, or if the real missing teenager was still missing.
