The Sodder Children because they never found who did it, and it's pretty clearly a cover up.

[–]ragewithinthemachine 513ポイント514ポイント  (38子コメント)

Yeah, way too many convenient failures and mishaps. The ladder was conveniently missing. The truck conveniently didn't start. The operator was conveniently not answering the phone.

I mean, shit happens and any one of those things by itself would have been just a "curiousity" or a mistake. But just problem after problem, just doesn't happen.

The first half of the 20th century was a particularly creepy time. 1900 to 1950.

1 A.M. - Parents wake up, house is on fire. Parents help get 5 out of their 10 kids out of the house. Dad tries to reach the other children (upstairs) with a ladder that was outside, ladder is missing. Dad tries to pull his two big trucks up to the window to climb the trucks and get kids out, both trucks will not start up. Dad tries to get water from rain barrel - rain barrel is frozen solid. He tries to call the fire department, and there is no response. He tells a neighbor to call, also no response. Finally someone in town sees the fire and goes to the fire department - the fire trucks don't arrive until 8 A.M., 7 hours after the start of the fire. Fire department investigates the house and finds no bones for the 5 kids, say that the bones were burnt to ashes. They say it was a wiring problem, but light bulbs were still working. People think that it was a cover up by law enforcement.

[–]shellwe [スコア非表示]  (18子コメント)

I am confused what the conspiracy is? What motive does law enforcement have to cover it up?

[–]Checkers10160 [スコア非表示]  (7子コメント)

As far as the article explains, there is no clear cut reason for a cover up. The conspiracy however, is that there are so many inconsistencies, and no evidence of the children. The police even planted evidence so the parents would stop looking. After a fire, you'd expect to find a body, or at least bones, but there was nothing. Add that to multiple reports of seeing the children right after the fire, it just makes it all very suspicious

A few months prior, a man came up to their house trying to sell them life insurance, and when they refused, he yelled at them "Your goddamn house is going up in smoke,” “and your children are going to be destroyed. You are going to be paid for the dirty remarks you have been making about Mussolini!" Due to the father's outspoken views on Benito Mussolini.

[–]Phillywakeup [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

This is the important part that gets left out a lot. It was most likely an attack by Italian fascists in response to the father's outspokenness towards Mussolini.

Family of 10 children have a fire on Christmas Night, 4 get out but 5 do not. Upon examining the house there are no bones or other evidence they were in there. Local authorities are unhelpful to say the least. Insurance salesman said there house was going to go up in smoke and is later on the coroners committee. Sighting across the entire country happen but nothing comes of it. Nobody knows what happened to these children. Beef liver and a few bones are planted in the ashes after the fact, neither have been touched by fire.

I love reading about unsolved mysteries, especially weird/creepy ones, and the Hinterkaifeck murders is one of most fascinating to me.

A farmer in Germany back in the 1920s had noticed mysterious footprints in the snow around his house. There was also strange stuff happening around the farm. Footsteps in the attic, a newspaper that no one in the family had bought, and eventually the house keys disappeared. What makes it stranger is that the housekeeper had left a few months prior, swearing up and down that the farm was haunted.

The family suddenly went unseen for a couple of days. Their neighbors went to check on them, only to find the entire family as well as their newly hired housekeeper had been murdered. Most of the family had been lead into the barn one by one and slaughtered with what's believed to have been a pickaxe. The maid and their youngest son were killed in their beds. The worst part is that the youngest daughter lived for a few hours after the attack. She spent the last few hours of her life lying next to her dead family in the hay of the barn, and had torn chunks of her own hair out in that time.

Despite the best efforts of the police, they never found out who murdered the family. Whoever it was stayed in the house after the murders. The neighbors saw smoke coming from the chimney, and some of the food had been eaten. Still, 90-something years after the murders, no one really knows who did it.

Here's a picture of the farm, and for those morbidly curious, a picture of the crime scene in the barn was taken.

One of the creepiest examples of social memetics ever. Imagine being the killer, safe in the knowledge that you got away with murder. And yet... there it is, "Who put Bella in the wych elm" scrawled on an old chimney. You see it again on wall of a ruined building, written on the pavement - you can't get away from it. It's everywhere, people won't stop writing it. It's almost Poe-esque.

The Voynich Manuscript. Who knows what it could possibly mean. - Source

The Voynich manuscript is an illustrated codex hand-written in an unknown writing system. The vellum in the book pages has been carbon-dated to the early 15th century (1404–1438), and may have been composed in Northern Italy during the Italian Renaissance. The manuscript is named after Wilfrid Voynich, a Polish book dealer who purchased it in 1912.

The pages of the codex are vellum. Some of the pages are missing, but about 240 remain. The text is written from left to right, and most of the pages have illustrations or diagrams.

The Voynich manuscript has been studied by many professional and amateur cryptographers, including American and British codebreakers from both World War I and World War II.No one has yet succeeded in deciphering the text, and it has become a famous case in the history of cryptography. The mystery of the meaning and origin of the manuscript has excited the popular imagination, making the manuscript the subject of novels and speculation. None of the many hypotheses proposed over the last hundred years has yet been independently verified.

I have read that this has been suggested as the most likely "solution" to the mystery. If it is a troll then it is a damn good troll and the author must still be laughing away in his grave.

The fascinating thing is that experts determined that the syntax, structure and semantical word patterns follows a relatively logical language patterns, making it seem like a language that definitely could exist. So indeed, a damn good troll.

I think this is it. It reminds me of the art/writings of Henry Darger, a loner Chicago janitor that every assumed was retarded. When he died his landlords found he has been working for year on writing and illustrating a 1000+ page epic about little girls with penises who were Christian warriors... or something. There is a great documentary about it called In the Realms of the Unreal. It is a beautiful story. Today we would probably call it autism.

Yeah, but just trying to translate it to figure out what the hell it's talking about is so fascinating. It is definitely a coherent language, constructed or not, it's just that nobody has been able to figure out what it's saying. It's more about the act of deciphering the puzzle than the answer itself, really.

The WOW signal

The signal lasted for 72 seconds, the longest period of time it could possibly be measured by the array that Ehman was using. It was loud and appeared to have been transmitted from a place no human has gone before: in the constellation Sagittarius near a star called Tau Sagittarii, 120 light-years away.

Ehman wrote the words "Wow!" on the original printout of the signal, thus its title as the "Wow! Signal."

[–]GlobbyBottle 337ポイント338ポイント  (30子コメント)

This may be irrelevant but worth putting out there, so here goes. In 1931 a radio engineer named Karl Jansky was assigned to research different types of possible static interference for the telephone company he worked for. Amongst his research he noticed one frequency, which he could not find the origin of. However, after an extensive search he later concluded that the signal was strongest when directing his antenna towards the constellation, Sagittarius.

Years down the track with improved technology, an astrophysicist by the name of Reinhard Genzel decided to continue Jansky's work and find the origin of the frequency. What Reinhard found was a bunch of stars orbiting what appears to be an empty space, but he believes he may have indeed found a black hole. This could be the same signal that Ehman picked up.

TL;DR, the WOW signal might actually be caused by a black hole.

[–]Ob101010 184ポイント185ポイント  (6子コメント)

The WoW signal was a one time event, centered on about 1420Mhz, and was extremely 'loud'.

The signal Karl Jansky was looking at was a hiss, repeatable, and your wiki article does not note the frequency.

They both pointed in vaguely the same direction, twoards the center of our galaxy, so yeah... gonna say not the same signal.

It was an attempted murder according to Farrell in the Fallon skit. And I don't believe he said anything about it being unsolved to this day.

Sounds real spooky ...except if you actually watch the video you will find that it was an attempted murder case where someone beat a man and left him for dead.

I believe one of the explanations was that he found himself inverted which isn't too uncommon while flying in low light conditions - he basically flew upside down at a low altitude until he crashed into the water, and the lights he saw were most likely his plane's own reflection on the water.

These guys aren't exactly wrong, but they also obviously have never experienced it.

When flying in instrument conditions (no visual reference outside the aircraft) it is extremely easy to enter into what is called a graveyard spiral. Basically, when you've been turning for awhile (30 seconds or so), and turn back to straight and level you feel like you are in fact turning in the opposite direction. If you rely on your instruments like you should, it's not a problem at all. However, if you start flying by "feeling", that's when your get messed up and potentially result into a controlled flight into terrain.

I recently pulled apart my dryer to replace the belt that snapped, and I found a pile of at least 8 socks that had, by some fucking spooky miracle, slipped through the well-sealed lip of the drum in the back.

Makes me wonder how many have been devoured since then. Also, dryers are mostly open space and are just a simple motorized pulley system with a surprisingly crude heating element and a small computer that handles timing and the moisture sensor (which also went out soon after I bought the it.) Makes me wonder why it was 800 fucking dollars.

Heard this from a friend who says it's true:

In 1984 there was a camping trip that went deep into a Hungarian forest. Five adults and eight children were brought along. They were never heard of again, until now.

Earlier this year, one of the children who disappeared (now an adult) was found roaming the outskirts of the forest. He was taken to a hospital, but soon died of shock. Before he died, he claimed that there were more survivors. The police went to investigate. Eventually, they found the camp. It turned out five of the eight children went missing during the camp and four of the five adults committed suicide (all this was recorded in a journal found at the site). None of the people who killed themselves had any background of depression or something that could lead to suicide. Skeletons were found, confirming that the rest had died.

When the search team returned, the body of the man they found was gone. They went back to collect the bodies from the camp... and found the man's body laying among the others.

Kinda hard to believe, but creepy nonetheless.

I saw this one on the TV show Unsolved Mysteries. There was a group of five guys who went out in their small whaling boat in Hawaii to fish in 1979. There was a storm, and they never came back. Ten years later, their boat was found on the shore of a small island in the Marshall Islands with a shallow grave that someone made. The grave had some bones from one of the fishermen. However, scientists estimate it would have only taken 3 months for the boat to drift all that way, and a government survey of the small island was conducted six years prior and the boat and grave was not there. Nobody knows what happened to the rest of the men and nobody knows who laid the grave, no one knows how the boat was in the four years prior to the island's survey.

Stories in the area persisted for decades about a ghost who would haunt a plantation. Beautiful lady dressed in red. She'd be seen wandering the plantation but never interacted with anyone.

Till, an umarked grave was discoverd during digging for some reason or other.

They found a perfectly preserved woman in a lacy-red dress. In a glass, sealed coffin filled with alcohol.

No one knows who she was, why she was buried so extravagantly in and umarked grave. And no one has seen the ghost since.

Dyatlov Pass Incident. 9 hikers all mysteriously found dead after cutting their way out of their tent. There are many theories regarding how they died ranging from avalanche to military testing. The official cause of death is listed as "compelling natural force".

I think it was something really mundane, but the evidances got lost because the search parties were so big and the first detective was inexperienced. But we'll probably never know. The thing that actually gets me is the photos that were retieved from the cameras that were found on the scene. They look so happy and young and totally unaware of the terrible stuff that was going to happen to them. http://archives.colta.ru/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Dyatlov_Pass_incident_01.jpg http://www.epochtimes.ru/eet-content/uploads/06/differents/161_taina-perevala-djatlova-1_3.jpg http://cdn.static4.rtr-vesti.ru/vh/pictures/b/275/343.jpg http://im7.asset.yvimg.kz/userimages/orangeboy/cW89D4CVNJu6N3Bd54est3OY6bi9v2.jpg

They made a movie related to this that was(is?) on Netflix called 'Devil's Pass'.

In Canada we have a highway of tears, where a number of women have gone missing. Investigators believe it may be the work of one or more serial killers.

Should've put a serious tag on this one lol.

[–]Ndonkeykong__Suh 270ポイント271ポイント  (12子コメント)

No shit. I hate how reddit tries to be cool and funny when there isn't a serious tag. These threads can be really interesting but if there isn't a serious tag the edgy teenagers take over.

Basically the government was dicking around trying to make a cloaking device and got more than they bargained for.

A great story. Which led me to believe it had been covered by Skeptoid. It had. TLDR: It was all fabricated by a crackpot. This is a great website that covers all sorts of stories like this, and I'd recommend it to anyone.

Death of Elisa Lam

It's creepy because of the video but there's likely no foul play or supernatural aspects. /r/unresolvedmysteries has done some fantastic work on it.

I've always thought she looked like she had had a psychotic break or something.

People do strange things when the mind is no longer working as it should.

[–]Spartanhero613 14ポイント15ポイント  (14子コメント)

I'm honestly a little creeped to watch the video, it's late at night for me. Could you summarise what happens? What I've gotten in: shaky hands, foot that doesn't belong to her, and something about a water tank

In the elevator she appears to be hiding from someone, then moving her hands in a weird way, like she was having some kind of psychotic episode. People also said that she was trying to go somewhere but the elevator wouldn't work, the door wouldn't close. But the explanation is that she was actually pressing the button to keep the door open. She was then found inside a closed water tank, so it is super weird to think why and how she put herself in there. Her body was in there for three weeks I think.

Yeah, her body was in there until guests complained about the taste and color of the tap water. Barf

eh not really - some of these are good but some of them aren't that interesting, but you can't downvote the bad ones and upvote the good ones, you have to wade through all the crap yourself. It's not really as helpful as just submitting each one individually and letting the high-voted ones be at the top.

And then there's some that you hear about alllll the time(like DB Cooper) that have lost interest.

The "Texarkana Moonlight Murders" was made into a film in 1976 & re-made last year.

Edit:- I gotta say this having read the wikipedia link you provided OP, the Texarkana killer's tactics are very eerily like the Zodiac's. Same man......different decades?

"CROATOAN"

[–]420Blaze1t 156ポイント157ポイント  (8子コメント)

It's highly likely they just assimilated but I wish it was a much creepier explanation.

[–]Phillywakeup 108ポイント109ポイント  (4子コメント)

Yea, the mystery stories on it tend to leave out that when the other settlers returned to the area, they found native americans who looked strangely more european than when they were last there. It was pretty much just assimilation

[–]lemonhopogatari 16ポイント17ポイント  (0子コメント)

From Wikipedia:

Before he left the colony, White instructed them that if anything happened to them, they should carve a Maltese cross on a tree nearby, indicating their disappearance had been forced. As there was no cross, White took this to mean they had moved to "Croatoan Island" (now known as Hatteras Island), but he was unable to conduct a search. A massive storm was forming and his men refused to go any farther; the next day they left.

This sounds extremely plausible. Was that hypothesis ever debunked?

[–]tinwhiskerSC 49ポイント50ポイント  (2子コメント)

Basically, the stories told make it seem like it all happened in a very short time, but the reality is that the whole thing took many, many years. That takes nearly all the mystery out of it. (Eg, the house was there, then a decade later, it wasn't. Very spoopy.) The colonists most likely just integrated.

I think this is the episode where they talk about the timeline. http://www.futilitycloset.com/2015/04/13/podcast-episode-53-the-lost-colony/
