Last night on Twitter, Joe Hill posted a brilliant theory he came up with that involves a murder that happened in the summer of 1974 in Massachusetts and the victim possibly being connected to the movie Jaws.
Here's the post:
Joe Hill's Thrills — The Lady & The Shark
In short: Joe first talks about the cold case: A 13-year-old girl finds a woman's decomposed body in the dunes outside of Provincetown, MA. The body can't even be identified because how badly decomposed the body is. To this day, there's still no name, identity or history about this woman. The killer also hasn't been identified. At the crime scene, there was a blue bandana and Wrangler jeans folded beneath her head. Joe shares a picture of what the woman could have looked like, as he states there have been several attempts or recreations of figuring out the physical appearance of the woman.
Here's what's known:
-She was around 25-49 years old
-She was fit; 145 pounds
-Her hair was auburn or red
-Her hair was in a ponytail, with a holder with gold sparkles in it
-she had expensive dental work
Joe then talks about his love for the movie, Jaws. He shares that one day he finally gets to see his favorite on the big screen, and then it gets interesting: around 54 minutes and 2 seconds into the movie, Joe spots an extra that catches his eye. The woman is standing, her hair is down, looks auburn/brownish, but she's wearing a blue bandana and jeans (not Wranglers, though). Joe asks us: was this extra the unidentified murder victim in Provincetown? Was she The Lady of the Dunes?
The post is a MUST read and what Joe thought up of was absolutely fascinating, intriguing, and yet freaky I really hope something comes out of this, like having the case reopened. I couldn't stop thinking about it after reading it. He's now taking it to the "internet" and asking anyway if they were near, around our even on set when Jaws was filmed and what they remember during the summer of 1974. (The scene where in Jaws with the extra was filmed in June, and the body was discovered in July).
I didn't mean this to be super long, sorry! (You can just skip what I wrote and read Joe's post, haha) What do you guys think?
And, well done to Joe!
