Details of Disappearance
Ferris initially left his family's residence in Des Moines, Iowa on July 25, 1990. He told his relatives that he was taking the day off from work to assist a friend moving into a new home. His family discovered a note from Ferris at their house later in the day, in which he offered a written apology for any pain caused by his disappearance. Ferris returned to his residence one week later and was apparently frightened. He underwent psychiatric counseling for the next six months and also enrolled at Iowa State University.
Ferris's father told authorities that his son had been displaying manic tendencies before he vanished in February 1991. He also said that Ferris's cheerful demeanor was uncharacteristic of his son's usual mood at the time. Ferris departed from his family's home sometime during February 1991 and apparently traveled to Custer State Park in South Dakota. His loved ones believe he visited the park due to his interest in Native American folkore. Ferris's whereabouts since that time are unknown. His family reported him as a missing person to authorities on March 7, 1991. Ferris has never been heard from again and his case remains unsolved.
