Virginia Douglas, 69, vanished on September 1, 1988, during an impromptu trip to Maine with her husband, Frank Douglas. The couple, who lived in Lexington, Massachusetts, stopped in Belfast on the way to Bar Harbor. Frank says he waited in the car while Virginia went into Reny’s department store around 5:30 p.m. and she never returned.

Frank searched the store and then reported her missing. Her pocketbook was left in the car and there were no confirmed sightings of Virginia in Maine, which led authorities to question whether she ever made it into the state. Extensive searches in Massachusetts and Maine produced no substantial evidence, and the case remains unsolved. Suspicions have been raised about Frank’s involvement, but no charges were ever filed.

Did anyone in or near Belfast on September 1, 1988, see Virginia or notice anything unusual that evening?
