Vicki Lynn Hollar was 24 when she disappeared from Eugene, Oregon, on the evening of August 20, 1973. Newly graduated and recently moved to Eugene in June, she lived with five roommates and had begun a job as a seamstress at the Bon Marche two weeks earlier. She finished her shift around 5:00 p.m., walked with her supervisor to her black 1965 Volkswagen Beetle (Illinois plates GR7738, running boards removed), and drove away from the lot near 8th Avenue and Washington Street wearing a pink dress. A coworker was the last known person to see her.

Vicki had planned to meet a friend at 8:00 p.m. and then attend a neighborhood party; she never arrived. Her apartment and personal effects, including clothes, were left untouched and she never collected her final paycheck. Neither Vicki nor her Volkswagen has ever been found. No arrests have been made. Investigators and researchers have long considered the possibility of Ted Bundy’s involvement because he was in the Pacific Northwest then and Vicki matched the profile of some of his victims, but his connection remains unconfirmed and the case is officially classified as an endangered missing person.
