On March 31, 2006, an Ohio University Medical Student named Brian Shaffer was seen on a security camera entering the Ugly Tuna Saloona in Columbus Ohio, and was never seen again. Loving girlfriend Alexis and family quickly began a search that, to this day, has unfortunately revealed nothing. What happened to Brian Shaffer? Did he disappear by his own choice, unhappy with the possibility of being a doctor instead of starting his band? Did his seemingly suspicious friend Clint have anything to do with the disappearance? Was this another instance of the Smiley Face Killings? Welcome back to The Lore Lodge...
