What unsolved mystery are you obsessed with?


  1. Recently been fascinated by the story of the Original Night Stalker. It's not like Jack the Ripper where it's so far in the past that we'll never know; it's highly likely that the guy who did all this crap is still alive and still out there, living a relatively normal life.

  2. The Sodder children. In 1945, the Sodder family house burned down. The parents and 4 of their 9 children escaped the fire. Except the 5 bodies of the other children were never found. The father and some of the remaining children strongly believed the children escaped the fire - maybe they were abducted, or ran away, or something. But they didn't die in the house fire. In 1949, the father got the house site excavated, looking for remains. They did find some small bones, all belonging to the same person. Except those bones came from a 17-22 year old. And the eldest missing/dead child was only 14. It was determined they were unrelated to the fire. The father pretty much dedicated the rest of his life to finding his kids - passing out fliers, offering rewards, following up on leads (to crazy levels. He would see a photo of someone that he thought looked like one of his kids, and storm the castle demanding to be allowed to see and interview the child), etc. He died in the 60s, I believe, and the mom was like the kids are obviously dead, they died in the fire, the family is in agreement, case closed. And then she died, and their youngest kid was like I don't think they died in the fire. And, as far as I know, there's never been anything definitive. There's no real reason they shouldn't have found the bodies of the children, and there's no real evidence that they didn't die in the fire. It's not super suspicious that the dad was so determined to find his kids. And it's not unusual that the mom was ready to put her kids to rest. The whole things is just... Weird.

  5. Delphi murders - basically, two girls go hiking in a secluded area. Couple hours later they go missing. When the bodies are found, they discover one of the girls took a series of snaps with them posing and other typical stuff, with the last being around 2:07pm. Shortly after this, there is a chilling video secretly recorded by one of the girls of a middle aged man approaching the two girls. The audio released by the police has the man saying "Go down hill/down hill". Nobody knows who the guy in the picture is(or if he was involved) nor what his motive was. Police thus far haven't released details on how the girls died or the full video. More info [here](http://truecrimeguy.com/twisted-tracks-murders-liberty-german-abigail-williams/#more-93)

  7. I'd like to earn the $10 million reward to solve the 1990 art heist worth an estimated **$500 million** from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. It's still unsolved, 27 years later. http://www.cnn.com/2017/06/07/arts/gardner-museum-art-heist/index.html

  8. D.B. Cooper. I know there was that documentary that came out about 10 years ago with the 3 guys traveling through the wilderness, but was that actually Coopers money they found?

  9. How Tommy Wiseau got the funding to film The Room.

  10. There's a documentary, The Imposter, on Netflix that is creepy as fuck. I'm not sure if its on there still but basically its about this dude from France who pretends to be an American boy that got kidnapped. The weird part is the family of the boy plays along and pretends that he is the boy (some speculate to avoid police detection.) Really interesting but creepy stuff

  11. The two inmates who escaped Alcatraz, and were never found or seen again. Many years later, Relatives of one of the fugitives had pretty strong evidence that he was living in Brazil for many years.

  12. Edgar Allen Poe's death. He was found stumbling around delirious in Baltimore, wearing clothes that were not his. He died before he could explain what happened to him, but before he died he called out the name "Reynolds." His medical records and death certificate have all been lost.

  13. The Springfield Three. Three women basically disappear from their house overnight.
