by

A bone-chilling unsolved mystery is joining Netflix’s collection through a fresh documentary titled “Amy Bradley: Vanished”.

Through interviews with her family, officials involved, and individuals who played some role in the case, this documentary aims to clarify whether the event was a heartrending mistake or an act of criminal intent.

Read on for more information about the case and possible sightings of Amy over the years.

What happened to Amy Bradley?

In the year 1998, Amy Bradley and her loved ones were enjoying a vacation on a Royal Caribbean cruise. However, by the third day, there was no sign of Amy anywhere on board.

One evening during the third night of the cruise, Amy and her younger sibling, Brad, were dancing at the ship’s disco. Later that night, she was discovered dozing off in a chair on her private balcony by their father. However, about a half-hour later, she had vanished.

The Bradley family informed the team and requested they hold the passengers aboard to deliver news about Amy, however, it was past the point as most passengers had already disembarked for the day.

The ship was searched extensively, but Amy could not be found.

On the fateful morning when Amy vanished, people reported sighting her up above with Alister ‘Yellow’ Douglas, a talented musician aboard the ship. Later, the FBI questioned Alister and he underwent a lie detector test, passing it without a hitch.

Spontaneously in the documentary, Alistair’s daughter Amica calls him during their discussion about that particular evening.

As soon as it happened, the FBI got involved and he told me they are searching for this girl who I was seen dancing with. Anyone connected to tidying her room or serving her drinks had to stay home.

Once we discovered there was no complications, we carried on with our tasks. For the next two years, I kept working aboard the cruise ship.

For four days, the Dutch Caribbean Coast Guard undertook a thorough search, initially suspecting that Amy might have accidentally fallen from the ship or tragically taken her own life. However, investigators reported finding no proof to support either theory – neither that she fell overboard nor was pushed, nor did she commit suicide.

Has Amy Bradley ever been found?

In the year 2010, Amy Bradley was officially pronounced deceased. As of 2025, her location and what happened to her are still a mystery.

After Amy went missing, several people claimed to have spotted her, however, no substantial evidence was found to support these claims.

In the year 2005, Amy’s parents made an appearance on Dr. Phil’s show following the receipt of an image that strongly resembled Amy. This picture implied that Amy might have fallen victim to human trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation.

Amy’s mother expressed, “This feels like a grievous wound. I couldn’t fathom she was gone, neither her father nor her brother. We must find her immediately.

In the documentary, FBI Special Agent Erin Sheridan stated that the specific photo was found on a certain online platform, which primarily focused on activities related to prostitution in the Caribbean and Venezuelan region.

The females depicted in these photos are dressed quite provocatively, and there’s a strong possibility that one of them is Amy, as suggested by our investigation.

Approximately seven years following Amy’s disappearance, during her vacation in Barbados, a lady called Judy Maurer thought she saw Amy inside a restroom of a nearby shop.

Whilst she was present, Judy overheard individuals entering the restroom. Reminding herself of an earlier conversation, she remembered a man saying: “The arrangement is at 11am, and let me tell you, you should be prepared to leave promptly.

After exiting the cubicle, she said she saw a woman with “real long, dark hair” stood by the sinks.

Judy stated that she believed she inquired about the woman’s name, to which the response was “Amy.” It wasn’t until she viewed a Dr Phil episode that Judy understood the “Amy” she interacted with might be Amy Bradley, prompting her to contact the FBI.

FBI agents traveled to Barbados to investigate whether it was indeed Amy, yet no conclusive evidence emerged from their investigation.
