The Bear Brook murders (also referred to as the Allenstown Four) are female American murder victims, two discovered in 1985 and two in 2000, at Bear Brook State Park in Allenstown, New Hampshire, United States. All were either partially or completely skeletonized; all were believed to have been murdered between 1977 and 1981. In 2017, investigators named Terry Peder Rasmussen (1943–2010) as the most likely suspect. He was also confirmed, via DNA analysis, as the father of a 2-to-4-year-old girl who was one of the Bear Brook victims. Rasmussen is believed to be responsible for several other murders, including that of Denise Beaudin, his known girlfriend, who disappeared in 1981. Rasmussen was convicted and sentenced for the murder in 2002 of his then-wife, Eunsoon Jun; he died in prison in 2010. In 2019, authorities announced that the three biologically related females had been identified as a mother, Marlyse Elizabeth Honeychurch, and her two daughters (of different biological fathers) Marie Elizabeth Vaughn and Sarah Lynn McWaters, last seen in November 1978. The middle child was identified in 2025 as Rea Rasmussen. Based on the date they disappeared, available documents and Rasmussen's activities, the victims most likely died between 1978 and 1981.
