Creepy Unsolved Mysteries - From unsolved murders to unidentified people to unexplained supernatural events, what are some of the creepiest unsolved mysteries you've ever heard of?

Ever heard of the disappearance of Paresh Patel? He was an Indian immigrant who disappeared in September 2000 in downtown Austin, Texas. He was the owner of several nightclubs in Austin. He was last seen when he went to attend a meeting at a club in downtown. He hasn’t been seen since.

He was associated with the Yassine brothers, three Lebanese immigrant brothers who owned a lot of bars downtown. The brothers were arrested and charged with money laundering in 2012, and sentenced in prison time in 2013. The Yassine Brothers were charged as people of interest in Patel’s disappearance. Patel always had a lot of money on him, and this made him a target for money laundering. The city police made one of the brothers a person of interest in Patel’s disappearance.

Patel wasn’t a perfect person in his life, as he had an illegitimate daughter while married to his wife and mother of his two sons. He had divorced her, and was going through a custody battle with her. He also was accused of failing to pay child support for his daughter. But most likely, his disappearance happened at the hands of the Yassine brothers.

The only unsolved mysteries that have fucked me up are the ones where parents turn around for a second and their kid goes missing. I think they're part of the missing 411 series but I don't remember. The parents blink and their kids vanish and no amount of searching brings any clues. There's just no way to explain it. They coulden't have been kidnapped because you would hear/see someone running away with a screaming kid in their arms. They didn't fall into a hole because the parents know where they last saw the kid and searched the area. They didn't wonder off and get lost, because again, their parents saw them very recently. Even in a forest you would be able to see/yell to find someone that left so recently. The only mildly acceptable theory I've heard is that a biggish animal (leopard, eagle, etc) grabbed them and flew away or climbed up a tree.

The speed and totality is what makes it so creepy. It's like they were just erased.

Eagles in the US aren't big enough to carry off any child older than a new born and the people would notice a big ass eagle swooping away with their baby. We don't have leopards but we do have mountain lions which could take a toddler pretty quietly but mountain lion attacks are very rare because like most animals they know to not fuck with humans unless they're incredibly desperate for food. If you want a good channel that debunks a lot of Missing 411 bullshit check out The Missing Enigma. Unlike most debunkers the guy goes to the places where the people disappeared from and gets the actual police reports. David Paulides is a bullshit artist.

The thing with many of those cases is, oftentimes the parent or parents weren't turned away for a mere second. The poster above's recommendation, The Missing Enigma, does a good job debunking the "it was just a minute, than they were gone" aspect of so many missing 411 mysteries. Maybe the parents first said that to police/investigators in the beginning of the investigation, 'cause what parent is going to admit to authorities "...I was on my phone, shitposting on Reddit for approximately 10 minutes, and while I was distracted my 6 year old wandered off into the wilderness"? However, after interrogation the parent eventually admits the time period was different.
 
If we're talking Missing 411, can we discuss how Dave Paulides holds his cards very close to his chest, but if you listen to enough interviews where he's like at a UFO convention or something with his guard down and he's fielding questions, it becomes really clear that his pet theory is that Bigfoots are real and they might even time travel?

I thought with those cases that if you look closer they’re usually really shitty parents who probably killed their kids after buggering them and dumping their bodies deep into the woods.

Everywhere I look. Everywhere, are 'Missing Child' postings. In the motel bar - on a bulletin board, at the motel- taped to the front desk

Now that it's been a decade since this story took place can you please share which town in Wyoming had all of the missing kids?

As a follow up to this but I’ve been trying to find one of these “but we turned around and the kids just vanished near our camp” stories, except when police searched the house the clothes the kid was wearing when they went missing in were there and the grandad, who was the one who turned a rounded when they vanished, was also suspected of using the kid as a fleshlight.

I think it might be one of the famous ones that “researchers” take the family on their word and didn’t check anything else.

Doesn't he think the Bigfoot legend was people wearing animal pelts? It sounds plausible. He was also involved with a study where he proved that it was just people, if I remember correctly.

Ufos on the other hand...IDK about that but there is some weird stuff going on and it's so weird that the US government has hearings about the topic. At the beginning he wasn't involved in the UFO crap, only after his son died he became fully immersed.

Saying it was UFO's is as retarded as claiming everything is the work of the Smiley Face killers which is another bogus theory but from the anti 411 side.

In my opinion some not many (even Paulides said that it was only a small amount of people) are disappearing because of reasons that can't be explained with our current scientific knowledge. Even if it's not the work of Bigfoot and/or UFO's.

And these things aren't a recent phenomena either. Take a look into folklore and legends all over the world. There are lots of rules about what you should and shouldn't do in forests and mountains or else you disappear and myths about mysterious disappearences. For example Japan has "Kamikakushi" which is about mysterious disappearances or deaths. In other countries there are warnings that you shouldn't wear bright colorful clothes or you get taken away by spirits/faries/gods.

I'd say it's a real but rare phenomena.

I've always heard that you shouldn't whistle or ring bells in the forest.
