14 Unsolved Mysteries That People Would Love To See Solved

True crime has experienced a total renaissance over the past decade. So many people are into it, love playing armchair detective, and I think imagine that the more of it they watch, the less likely something terrible will happen to them.

There are some mysteries that go unsolved, though, and it really bugs folks not to have answers – and these 14 cases have gone on for far too long.

14. More than earned it.

I would like John Walsh to be able to find the person who murdered his son, the reason behind CODE ADAM.. Being raised in Florida in the ’80’s, this story was heard so many times.

Now with what John Walsh has been doing my entire lifetime, and currently with Gabby Petito’s case, I think he’s more than earned it.

13. This one is totally on my list.

What happened to the Beaumont Children. Changed the way parents in my home town thought about letting their kids out on a weekend forever.

I can’t imagine the feeling they had when the kids didn’t show up at 12…then at 2….then they couldn’t find them at the beach.

That crescendo of panic is absolutely miserable. So sorry for them.

12. That’s a movie that needs made.

The disappearance of Sandy Irvine and what’s on the camera he was carrying. Sandy Irvine and George Mallory attempted to summit Everest in 1924.

Mallory was discovered in 1999 but the body of Irvine is still missing.

11. It seems everyone has a similar story.

Mine is The abduction of Michael Dunahee. I was 8 years old when it happen. Three years older than Michael at the time. It happened about an hour from where I lived. From that day on being kidnapped was my greatest childhood fear.

Abducted meters from his parents. No witnesses. Still missing.

10. Still so many questions.

Disappearance of Madeleine McCann.

This is one I’d like to see answered.

Did she die in the hotel room? Is she somewhere still alive not knowing who she really is? (Or even reading this right now wondering what happened to that little girl with the same eyes as her?) Did the parents do it? What, if anything, does the German suspect have to do with it?

So many unanswered questions!

9. Too many army stories to count.

My best friend’s little brother disappeared from an army base last July.

Good or bad, I’d like to know what happened to Pvt. Richard Halliday.

8. Rightfully so.

I’d like to know who murdered my sister in 1984.

7. To know for sure.

What caused the Bronze Age Collapse. I know that it is a bit esoteric but I really wanna know for sure.

There are a few interesting theories but no definitive answer

6. A matter of time.

MH 370. I’m sure they’ll eventually find the wreckage and have a better idea exactly what happened but even today they’re still finding old WWII ships and even ships older than that.

So I hope that it’s found before I leave because I do wonder what happened to that plane. I just hope it’s a matter of years or decades, and not centuries.

5. They just solved this one!

The boy in the box. His body was exhumed a couple of years ago to obtain DNA for forensic genealogy. I just want the poor little thing to have his name back.

Whoever he was, I hope someone remembers him and still thinks about him.

4. Spill the tea.

What is the “disturbing hurtful event” that my uncle Bill won’t talk about and what does it have to do with me ? I was adopted out.

Found my birth mom after she had died and the rest of her family defers to uncle about not talking to me because of that “event”.

C’mon Uncle, it’s been over 57 years.

3. Unlikely.

Are we alone in the universe?

I can’t believe more people didn’t want to know this. This would be one of my top questions. But the question I want the answer to the most is how the universe came to be and why there is something rather than nothing.

2. Definitely murder.

How This Lawyer in Argentina managed to shoot himself in the back of the head twice in a locked bathroom days/hours before he was going to depose the former PM of Argentina.

1. What’s in the Vatican?

Not all of the Egyptian Pyramids have been full explored, I’d like to know what’s in and under those pyramids.

Also, what is hidden deep in the vatican’s archives? I’d like to know that too.

And while we’re here – What about the mystery of the missing packet whenever you send something over the internet.

I have to agree with some of these – I want answers too!

Is there a case you would add to this list? Let us know in the comments.
