Agatha Christie (1890-1976) in 1926 (left) and 1958 (right).
On a cold December night in 1926, famous novelist Agatha Christie, the creator of the beloved fictional detective characters Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple vanished for 11 days. Police recorded the vanishing on (probably) December 5, 1926, when they found her car empty. In stories ever mentioned, were those policemen in uniform?
Or were those cops who found car civilian-clothed policemen or detectives? She went out in the evening on December 4 with an attaché case. And she returned home 11 days later. Sometimes people asked, what was in that attaché case? Was there some kind of new manuscript?
And where she was those 11 days? There was some kind of rumors about other hotels. When searchers found Agatha she was easy to transport to the hotel where searchers found her officially? So was there some other hotel where she spent time? That could explain why the hotel crew didn't report that visitor to the police.
She wrote detective stories and married an army colonel Archibald Christie. So when that writer's car was found empty and her purse and other personal stuff including her driver's license was in the car the search began immediately. Agathe Christie was found in the hotel eleven days later and in the hotel book, she wrote a different name. The name that Agathe used was Mrs. Tressa Neele from Cape Town. Didn't the hotel crew ask for any ID? Agatha must have an ID in some other pocket. But why the crew didn't call to police when they saw that Agatha was wanted?
The question about that 11 days vanishing is that people were a worry. About 15 000 people took part in the search operation. The thing is that the hotel crew recognized Agatha Christie. But for some reason, they didn't tell that thing to authorities. The eleven days of disappearing was big news. And the family of Agatha Christie told to press that she had memory problems.
Was Agatha Christie face some kind of (alien) abduction?
If somebody or something abducted Agatha Christie, what happened during that 11 days? What was the motive? And was the amnesia true, or did she act that thing? And if amnesia was true. What caused that thing? If amnesia was fake what did those people like colonel Christie hide? And why did Agatha ever tell about that thing later?
The real reason for that vanishing remains a mystery. There sometimes speculated that the divorcing from col. Christie caused nervous problems for Agatha. Another and more creepy explanation is that Agatha was abducted. The thing is that the abduction experiences are the thing that seems like similar cases with Agatha Christie vanishing.
The person's car is empty. There is often purse and ID papers. And when the person will return there is no memory mark or no memories of what happened. The case of Agatha Christie vanishing is a mystery. The famous novelist took her secret to the grave. But legends remain. Why hotel crew didn't call the police? Or how is Agatha allowed to get the room without ID papers? Or did she have ID papers in another place than in her purse?
