The Asotin County Fair comes to the town of Lewiston every spring, bringing with it the Hells Canyon Rodeo and the start of the planting season. But some residents still remember the spring of 1979, when a 12 year old girl named Christina White disappeared and the Snake River Killer began his reign of terror. On the day of the fair Christina visited a friends house complaining of a headache, and was offered a cool cloth and use of the telephone to call her mother for a ride. The home belonged to Patricia Brennen, who asked Christina to wait for her ride out on the porch. They had thought her already picked up and home when her mother arrived over an hour later to retrieve her, and she could not be located.

Outside the North Idaho town of Grangeville hides a fascinating phenomenon known to the locals as Gravity Hill. Alternately called 'Magnetic Hills' or 'Mystery Spots', gravity hills are strange locations where objects start to roll uphill.

In the beautiful Owyhee Mountains of southern Idaho are rumored to live the Nirumbees, a terrifying race of tiny people who inhabit the mountain caves and eat human flesh. First reported by the Crow and Shoshone tribes, the Nirumbee are eighteen inches tall with long pointed tails they curl around themselves for protection. They are reported to be extremely strong and to shoot poison tipped arrows so fine they cannot be seen. The Nrumbee possess many fairy like traits, and are thought to kidnap and eat children, replacing the missing child with one of their own, who will slowly drain the mother of life as it nurses. They are thought to eat the hearts of wild stallions. Generally assumed to be an native american legend, Nirumbees have nontheless been sighted within this century, and have been implicated in animal mutilations.
