Jonathan Hoang, 21, disappeared from his home in Arlington, Washington on the night of March 30th, 2025. Hoang was highly autistic -- capable of some basic life skills, but unable to drive and needed a guardian for life. His parents immediately contacted police, but a search proved fruitless. Several months later, in June 2025, Hoang was spotted on a security camera outside a home in Kirkland, Washington -- more than 40 miles from Arlington. Interestingly, he appeared to be inspecting a house with an address similar to his own. He has not been seen since.
On August 31st, 2004, a man was found naked, sunburned, injured, and covered in ant bites next to a dumpster behind a Burger King in Richmond Hill, Georgia. The man could not remember anything about himself except for his birthday, which he was confident was exactly ten years before that of legendary pop singer Michael Jackson. He chose the name Benjamin Kyle, and for eleven years, he struggled to live without a driver's license, passport, or social security card. In late 2015, however, genetic testing discovered his true identity: William Powell of Lafayette, Indiana. He was reunited with some family members and has since been receiving public assistance, however the decades leading up to his discovery in 2004 will likely never be known.
From 2020 to 2021, a suspected serial killer operated in the Little Rock, Arkansas area. He committed three (known) murders, and one attempted murder (the victim was severely injured, but managed to survive). The killer, dubbed the "Little Rock Slasher", seemed to prefer to target lone walkers during the late-night hours. Police are confident all four crimes were committed by the same person, though his identity is still unknown.
Vernon Henry murdered his wife and daughter at their Athol, Idaho home in August of 1996 with a handgun, then drove off, and has never been apprehended.

Byblos is an ancient city in modern Lebanon which appears to have been inhabited continuously for about 7,000 years. Fourteen ancient artifacts (stone tables, plates, and spatulas) have been discovered bearing an unknown writing system now called the Byblos syllabary, which appears (at least partially) similar to Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. Many attempts have been made to decypher the strange text, but to this day, it remains un-translated.
On October 16th, 2012, the body of a young girl (aged approximately 16) was discovered on the side of a road in Houston, Texas. She appeared to have been mixed race (black and white), and was wearing a shirt bearing an image of Smurfette, leading to her unofficial name "Smurfette Jane Doe". Her body was badly decomposed, so a cause of death could not be determined, but it is very likely that foul play was involved. She has never been identified and no arrests have been made in relation to her death.
Not exactly a "mystery" per-se, but there was an ancient animal in what is now Illinois that was so unlike anything else, scientists have not been able to definitively classify it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tullimonstrum
Jason Jolkowski was 19-years old when he left his house in 2001 to catch a ride to work with a friend. Somewhere along the half-mile walk, he disappeared, and has never been found.
A woman, approximately 20-years old, was found dead -- apparently due to starvation -- on Christmas day, 1990, near Teteringen, Netherlands. She was wearing a red sweater, but no socks, shoes, or underwear, and her body showed signs of abuse. Her identity is still unknown.

August 5th, 1993: Seven people went on a hiking trip in the Khamar-Daban mountain range in Russia. After beginning their descent, one of the hikers began to scream, while blood seeped from his ears and eyes. A fellow hiker went to help him, but soon began screaming and showing the same symptoms. Another, apparently unable to breathe, bashed her skull against a rock until she was dead. Two more died after vomiting blood, and the final death occurred as a victim was attempting to flee. Only one person survived.Theories range from altitude sickness, poisonous plants, secret military experiments, and beyond. Yet to this day, none have been solidly proven.

>>41889526Good post anon actually interesting
This is the largest circle made of giant stones in the world. It was built around 5000 years ago, but no one knows why. Some of the stones weigh over 80000 (yes, four zeros) pounds.
>>41889715This one’s been pretty much figured out. Wendigoon and a few others have good videos about it. Basically it’s “Welcome to the union of soviets, sorry we oops chem warfare tested your nice hiking valley. We did warn the army and police, maybe bribe your officials better next time you want to hike you dykes”
>>41889937>Soviet Union>1993

>>41889397Thanks OP, I'll be milking this shit for my Spanish paranormal slop channel :)
>>41889433https://findjonathanhoang.com/faq/>Jonathan also likes “researching” online via YouTube (but has no YouTube account). He has an interest in cryptids (animals whose existence is debated or unproven by science, like Bigfoot) and modern folklore (like Krampus and Slender Man).>What if I had a psychic premonition about Jonathan?>Our family does not subscribe to or believe in psychics, tarot card readers, highly intuitive premonitions, visions, or any other metaphysical manifestations. Though skeptical, we have already listened to and followed some leads from psychics, and none have been helpful, accurate, or credible. No leads from psychics have been consistent, and many told us Jonathan would be found deceased in various locations with vague descriptions. At this time, we are focusing our efforts on tangible tips and sightings that are actionable.lol
>>41889858There was some guy in Florida that was able to build with these giant stones, he only worked at night though and never revealed his way.I think it's named crystal castle or somethingAnother interesting case is the 'smiley face' killer. There's been a significant amount of dead bodies found with a smiley face spray painted somewhere near by.
>>41889581weird. Here's another unsolved one listed under the related articles section:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraquat_murders>The paraquat murders (パラコート連続毒殺事件, Parakōto renzoku dokusatsu jiken) were a series of indiscriminate beverage poisonings carried out in western and central Japan in 1985. The drinks were placed in and around vending machines, where the victim would consume the beverage. All the beverages were poisoned with the herbicide paraquat dichloride, except for one which was poisoned with diquat. The most targeted beverages were the energy drinks Oronamin C and Real Gold. The first known case was on April 30, in Fukuyama. At least 13 people died and 35 became seriously ill, in what is possibly the deadliest product-tampering case in history. Warning labels and leaflets were posted around Tokyo, and on many of the 5.2 million vending machines across Japan. Police were unable to gather any evidence about the murders, and the case remains unsolved.
In 1761, five women were returning from collecting sticks near Ventimiglia, in northern Italy. Suddenly one of them cried out and dropped dead. Her companions were shocked by what they saw. Her clothes and shoes were torn into fine shreds and scattered up to six feet around her. There were wounds on her head that exposed the skull; the muscles on her right side had given way exposing her intestines; her sacrum was broken and most internal organs were ruptured or livid; her abdominal region bore many deep and parallel incisions, and the flesh of one hip and thigh was almost carried away, exposing the pubic bone and the broken head of the femur which had been forced from its socket. This horrific event was reported to the French Academy of Sciences by M. Morand, and the Annual Register for that year quotes him as noting that these grievous effects took place with no signs of penetration of the womans clothes, nor was there any blood on the scene, nor any sign of her missing flesh.

Karolina Olsson was 15 years old when she fell asleep after complaining of a toothache in 1876. She continued sleeping for over 30 years, never once waking up until 1908. Afterwards, she remembered everything from before she had slept, although she did not recognize her surviving family members. Doctors were unable to determine a cause, though it is believed she was in some sort of coma.
>>41891014Nah, you're more of an enigma.>>41891034https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karolina_Olsson>Olsson was visited by doctors who noted that her hair, fingernails, and toenails did not appear to grow. The family reported that Olsson occasionally sat up and "mumble[d] prayers she had learned by rote in childhood".>In July 1892, Olsson was hospitalized in Oskarshamn, where she was treated with electroconvulsive therapy. On 2 August 1892, she was released from the hospital without awakening or her situation improving. The hospital said that the appropriate diagnosis was "dementia paralytica". However, there is little to suggest that she actually suffered from that illness. She was not re-examined by a doctor until she awoke from her sleep....what if we hook her up to a car battery and see what happens? Nah, didn't work, bitch must just be too crazy to move, oh well we tried everything.>Upon the death of her brother in 1907, Olsson began crying hysterically, although she remained in an assumed coma. She reportedly did not touch any food that she received during her years in bed, and the family's maid never heard her speaking.>It has been speculated that Olsson may not really have been asleep and hibernating all that time. There were many unexplained characteristics of her state; for example, her hair, fingernails, and toenails did not seem to grow.>It was later revealed that Olsson did wake up occasionally and, when she did, she reacted with sorrow and anger. Frödeström speculated that Olsson thought that she was seriously ill, and that she remained still with her eyes closed and refused to eat to elicit sympathy. It has been conjectured that her mother had helped her and kept the fact secret that she was no longer hibernating.hmmmm, the prospect of her faking it for decades is just as crazy as if she was actually fucked up medically.

There have been some updates to this case, around 25 years after it occurred.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Asha_Degree#Later_developments
A single gunman entered a Lane Bryant store in Tinley Park, Illinois on February 2nd, 2008, and murdered five employees with a handgun. A sixth victim narrowly survived and was able to provide a description of the perpetrator to police, however nearly 18 years later, he has still not been identified.
>>41891559>five employeescorrection: one employee (the store manager), and four customers. the survivor was a part-time employee.

>>41892912I don't have a whole lot about ancient biology (it's definitely very interesting, but there aren't as many YouTube channels based around it), but here are a couple: https://youtu.be/KgQFeq6tNcwhttps://youtu.be/AoRsa0Q5pA0
>>41893003Thanks, I'll check this out. Not just ancient biology, but the "one-off" stuff. It's just bigfoot, U.F.O.s, and true crime most of the time. Never any Sandown Clown or Hopkinsville goblins.

>>41893223I know a couple of these. What about the silence on the odd giant burial mounds in the Great Lakes region of the US? Nobody ever talks about that.
In January of 1947, a young woman by the name of Elizabeth Short was found brutally murdered in Los Angeles. The 22 year old's body had been cleanly severed in half at the waist, and her intestines were neatly tucked under her backside. Her legs had been spread, her elbows bent upwards, and her hands positioned gracefully above her head, not unlike like those of a ballet dancer. Her face had been carved from the corners of her mouth, all the way up to her ears, forming a scar commonly known as a Glasgow smile.In the decades since, Short has become one of the most famous murder victims in American history. Her murder came less than a year after the release of a famous murder-mystery film starring Alan Ladd, which may well be how Short came to be known as the Black Dahlia.Her killer has never been identified.
"Mommy is in the trees."In 1985, Steven Harkins and his girlfriend Ruth Cooper went camping in a remote area of Pierce County, Washington. When they did not return several days later, their families reported them missing, and a search began.Investigators quickly discovered Harkins' body, with a gunshot wound to the head. His pet dog had also been shot to death. It wouldn't be until several months later that Cooper's body was found, about a mile and a half away, with a tube sock tied around the neck. Her head was about 50 feet away.Over a month later, a little girl was found wandering, alone, outside of a Kmart in Spanaway, Washington. When asked where her parents were, the young woman simply replied: "Mommy is in the trees."The girl's face was shown on local television, and her grandmother successfully identified her as Crystal Louise Robertson, age 2. Her parents, Mike Reimer and Diana Robertson had gone camping earlier that day, not far from where Harkins and Cooper went camping.Reimer's truck was eventually found, along with Robertson's body, half buried in snow, nearby. Just like with Ruth Cooper, a tube sock was tied around her neck.It wouldn't be for another 25 years before Mike Reimer's skull was found about a mile away, though a cause of death could not be determined.To this day, no one is sure if the four deaths are connected, or who is behind them. Some have noted that in both cases, there was a significant age gap between the couples.
On an icy Friday in January of 1956, six-year old Susan Cadieux was playing with her older brothers and a friend at a playground not far from her home in London, Ontario. At approximately 7:45 PM, a man approached Susan, and claimed that he had something to give her. He then told the other children that he was meeting with a priest at a church, and that he lived on York Street (although he pointed towards King Street). When Susan had not returned by 8 PM, her brothers told their parents, who then contacted police. By 1:30 AM, around 300 people had joined the search. The following morning, at about 10 AM, Susan's body was found in a nearby warehouse. She had been sexually assaulted, and her cause of death was listed as exposure. It is believed she died less than 3 hours before being found.Tears were frozen to her face.Her killer was never apprehended.

>>41890413They didn't empty all the vending machines after that? Just put warning labels saying one of these drinks might be poisoned? Lol
