Top 10 Freeky Photo That Remain Unexplained

1) Solway Firth Spaceman

Jim Templeton was in a marsh taking photos of his young daughter and after getting them developed there appeared to have been a Spaceman in full astronaut gear standing behind her. Except there wasn't anyone else around while they were there. Even Kodak verified that it was not tampered with.

2) The Mysterious Hinterkaifeck Murders

In Germany, 1922, the murders of six people at the Hinterkaifeck farmstead shocked the nation. This wasn't just because of the gruesome nature of the case, but also because the case was so incredibly weird, and it remains unsolved to this day. Over 100 people were interviewed in the murder, but no one was ever arrested. No motive was ever established as to explain the murders. The previous maid had left 6 months earlier, saying the home was haunted. The new maid arrived only hours before the murders. It is believed that the perpetrator(s) remained at the farm for several days – someone had fed the cattle, and eaten food in the kitchen: the neighbours had also seen smoke from the chimney during the weekend. This photo depicts one of the victims as he lay in the house barn. 

3) The Dead Body Falling From Ceiling

This is the first photograph of the family sitting together taken in the Cooper's new Texas house, but as the photo is taken, a body falls from the ceiling.The OP said he wasn't sure if it was real, but he thought it was real creepy. 

"Gloomy Sunday"- Cursed Song That Killed More Than 100 People

Gloomy Sunday is a hit song written in 1933 by Hungarian composer Rezső Seress. It's commonly known as the "Hungarian Suicide Song" because more than hundreds of  people committed suicides for no reason after listening to the song. There's something with the lyrics, melody and in some versions, voice of the singer that drive a sad person towards suicide.

Rezső Seress

The song originally wrote by Rezső Seress to woo his girlfriend, who had recently left him. The song succeeded in bringing them back together for a short time, before she jumped from his apartment window. In January 1968, 35 years after writing the song, Rezső Seress also committed suicide. He jumped out of a window in Budapest, but survived.However, later in the hospital he choked himself to death with a wire.

The Strange Case Of Elisa Lam (CCTV Footage)

Elisa Lam inside the Cecil Hotel's elevator

February 2013, a 21 years old student from Vancouver, Canada was found dead inside the Cecil Hotel's rooftop water tank in Los Angeles. The L.A. County Department of Coroner ruled the death "accidental due to drowning" and said no traces of drugs or alcohol were found during the autopsy. However, there more to the story than what is implied by police reports. The first piece of evidence that need to be considered is an elevator surveillance tape that recorded Elisa's behaviour only a few moments before she die.

The Hairy Hand of Dartmoor

The Hairy Hands is a ghost story/legend that built up around a stretch of road in Dartmoor, United Kingdom, which was purported to have seen an unusually high number of motor vehicle accidents during the early 20th century. According to the story surrounding them, the Hairy Hands are a pair of disembodied hands that appear suddenly, grab at the steering wheel of a moving car or the handlebars of a motorcycle, and then force the victim off the road. In some cases the hands are described as being invisible.

It's began in 1920s where spate of accidents plagued a lonely road crossing Dartmoor in Devon. All of the accidents were fatal and seemingly unexplained as there was nothing particularly strange about that part of the road. One evening another accident occurred but this time the driver survived. When he regained consciousness in hospital he was visibly shaken. He explained to the police what happened: as he approached the accident prone part of the road he felt a pair of rough hairy hands grab the steering wheel wrenching it from his control.

Further accidents happened and yet another survivor described the very same thing. Some time later a self-proclaimed psychic was driving on the road and as she passed the area she saw a pair of disembodied hairy hands crawling up her car window.

Greyfriars Kirkyard is the graveyard surrounding Greyfriars Kirk in Edinburgh, Scotland. It is located at the southern edge of the Old Town, adjacent to George Heriot's School. Burials have been taking place since the late 16th century, and a number of notable Edinburgh residents are interred at Greyfriars. The Kirkyard is operated by City of Edinburgh Council in liaison with a charitable trust, which is linked to but separate from the church. The Kirkyard and its monuments are protected as a category A listed building

Mackenzie Poltergeist in Greyfriars is one of the most famous attractions when taking the City of the Dead tour within the Greyfriars Kirkyard in Edinburgh as people who join the tour experience bruises, scratches, and some even faint as they enter and see the Black Mausoleum where Sir George Mackenzie lies

SS Ourang Medan : Man From Medan

According to widely circulated reports, in June of 1947 — or, according to alternate accounts, February of 1948 — multiple ships traversing the trade routes of the straits of Malacca, which is located between the sun drenched shores of Sumatra and Malaysia, claimed to have picked up a series of SOS distress signals. The unknown ship’s message was as simple as it was disturbing:

“All officers including captain are dead, lying in chartroom and bridge. Possibly whole crew dead.”  This communication was followed by a burst of indecipherable Morse code, then a final, grim message: “I die.” This cryptic proclamation was followed by tomb-like silence.

THE SILVER STAR COMES TO RESCUE:

A conscripted American merchant ship called the Silver Star was closest to the presumed location of the Ourang Medan. As the merchant craft neared the ill-omened vessel, the crew noticed that there was no sign of life on the deck. The Americans attempted to hail the Dutch crew to no avail. That’s when the Captain of the Silver Star decided to assemble a boarding party. As they left the safe haven of the Silver Star, these unfortunate souls had no idea that they were about to walk into a living nightmare.

As soon as they boarded the Ourang Medan, the men swiftly realized that the distress calls were not an exaggeration. The decks of the vessel were littered with the corpses of the Dutch crew; their eyes wide, their arms grasping at unseen assailants, their faces twisted into revolting visages of agony and horror. Even the ship’s dog was dead; it’s once intimidating snarl frozen into a ghastly grimace.

The boarding party found the Captain’s remains on the bridge, while his officers’ cadavers were strewn about the wheelhouse and chartroom. The communications officer was still at his post, as dead as the rest, his fingertips resting on the telegraph. All of the corpses, according to reports, bore the same terrified, wide-eyed expressions as the crew on deck.

Below deck, search party members found cadres of corpses in the boiler room, but almost as disturbing as this grim find was the fact that the American crew members claimed to have felt an extreme chill in the nadir of the hold, even though the temperature outside was a scorching 110°F. While the search team could see clear evidence that the crew of the Ourang Medan suffered profoundly at the moment of their deaths, they could find no overt evidence of injury or foul play on the swiftly decaying corpses. Nor could they spy any damage to the ship itself.

The decision was made to tow the mysterious ship back to port but before they could get underway, smoke began emanating below decks, probably originating in Number 4 hold. The boarding party hurriedly returned to The Silver Star and barely had time to cut the tow lines before the SS Ourang Medan exploded with such force that she "lifted herself from the water and swiftly sank”.

To this day, the exact fate of the Ourang Medan and her crew remain a seemingly impenetrable mystery. Speculation has been made that pirates killed the crew and sabotaged the ship, although this doesn’t explain the peculiar grimaces and lack of injuries on the corpses. Others have claimed that clouds of methane or other noxious natural gases could have bubbled up from fissures on the sea bed and engulfed the ship. Even more fantastical theories involving aliens and ghosts abound. Skepticism exists about the truthfulness of the entire story, suggesting perhaps that the ship may never have actually even existed, but what is certain is that while the Ourang Medan’s story is not the most well known, it refuses to disappear.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OURANG MEDAN?

While rumors about the Silver Star’s grisly discovery circulated wildly along the trade routes of the East Indies, the first official account of the event would not be printed until May of 1952, in the form of the “Proceedings of the Merchant Marine Council,” which was published by the United States Coast Guard. The testimony therein described the alarming state of the Dutch crewmen, even going so far as to state:

“Their frozen faces were upturned to the sun… staring, as if in fear… the mouths were gaping open and the eyes staring.”

What really happened to the SS Ourang Medan? Over the decades several marine historians have sought to uncover the truth about the ship’s puzzling fate. Among these, Roy Bainton’s research stands out. He writes:

“Searching the Dutch Shipping records in Amsterdam seemed only to deepen the mystery. There was no mention of the ship at all, and my enquiries to the Maritime Authority in Singapore drew a blank.

“I was facing the distinct possibility that this was simply a hoary old fo'c'sle yarn… until Professor Theodor Siersdorfer of Essen, Germany entered the frame. He had read the plea [I placed] in ‘Sea Breezes’ [a British magazine for old sailors] and I suddenly discovered that I was not alone; Siersdorfer had been on the case for 45 years.”

Unit 731

There are many theories on this ship that range from natural to paranormal. Carrying dangerous cargoes and failed black ops. Attacks by vengeful spirits causing the terror upon the crews faces. There is even a link to unit 731, a secret Japanese chemical and biological testing unit that disappeared at the end of WWII. Whatever the case we at Nightwatch Paranormal can be sure of one thing. Only the crew really know what happened, and they up to this point haven’t volunteered any information. 

As with many of these mysteries, it is unlikely that the truth will be uncovered and for now at least, the Ourang Medan remains a dark tale to tell on stormy nights.

Dyatlov Pass Incident

INTRO

Dyatlov Pass incident host to one of the most fascinating unsolved mysteries in the modern age.On the surface, what's become known as the Dyatlov Pass incident seems fairly explicable: Of a party of ten skiers, nine perished in the middle of a high-difficult trek. But the details, which are mostly based on diaries of those involved as well as records from Soviet investigators, are chilling: The ski hikers' tent was shredded. The skiers were scattered around the grounds wearing either very sparse clothing or just their underwear. Three of them were found with crushed ribs and fractured skulls, but no visible defence marks or other signs of a struggle and one of the bodies was missing a tongue

picture taken before they die

BACKGROUND

A group was formed for a ski trek across the northern Urals in Sverdlovsk Oblast. The group, led by Igor Dyatlov, consisted of eight men and two women. Most were students or graduates of Ural Polytechnical Institute:

1. Igor Alekseievich Dyatlov, the group's leader, born January 13, 1936
2. Zinaida Alekseevna Kolmogorova, born January 12, 1937
3. Lyudmila Alexandrovna Dubinina, born May 12, 1938
4. Alexander Sergeievich Kolevatov, born November 16, 1934
5. Rustem Vladimirovich Slobodin , born January 11, 1936
6. Yuri (Georgiy) Alexeievich Krivonischenko, born February 7, 1935
7. Yuri Nikolaievich Doroshenko , born January 29, 1938
8. Nicolai Vladimirovich Thibeaux-Brignolles , born July 5, 1935
9. Semyon (Alexander) Alexandrovich Zolotariov, born February 2, 1921
10. Yuri Yefimovich Yudin born July 19, 1937, died April 27, 1936

The goal of the expedition was to reach Otorten, a mountain north of the site of the incident. This route, at that season, was estimated as "Category III", the most difficult. All members were experienced in long ski tours and mountain expeditions.

According to photographs developed from rolls recovered by investigators, Dyatlov's crew set up camp in the early evening of February 2 on the slopes of a mountain next to Ortoten. The mountain is known to the local as Kholat Syakhl, which supposedly translate to " mountain of the dead,"

DISCOVERY

On February 26,When Soviet investigators went looking for the hikers that failed to return on schedule, they were shocked to find the tent was apparently cut open with a knife and covered with snow. It was empty, and all the group's belongings and shoes was left behind.  Further discovery found that a chain of eight or nine sets of footprints, left by several people were only wearing socks or were barefoot, could be followed and led down toward the edge of nearby woods.

the hikers's tent

At the forest edge, under a large cedar, the searchers found the remains of a fire, along with the first two bodies, those of Yuri Krivonischenko and Yuri Doroshenko, shoeless and dressed only in their underwear. Between the cedar and the camp the searchers found three more corpses, Dyatlov, Zina Kolmogorova and Rustem Slobodin, who seemed to have died in poses suggesting that they were attempting to return to the tent.

the dead bodies

On May 4, the remaining four travellers were finally found under four meters of snow farther into the woods from the cedar tree. These four were better dressed than the others, and there were signs that those who had died first had apparently relinquished their clothes to the others.  Zolotaryov was wearing Dubinina's faux fur coat and hat, while Dubinina's foot was wrapped in a piece of Krivonishenko's wool pants.

INVESTIGATION

A medical examination on the first five bodies concluded that they had all died of hypothermia.

However, the four bodies which were found in May changed the picture. Three of them had fatal injuries: the body of Thibeaux-Brignolles had major skull damage, and both Dubinina and Zolotarev had major chest fractures. Major external wounds injuries were, however found on Dubinina, who was missing her tongue, eyes, and part of the lips, facial tissue and a fragment of skullbone, she also had extensive skin maceration on the hand.

investigation shows that they were not attacked and murdered by Mansi people. Furthermore, the nature of their deaths did not support this hypthesis; the hikers footprints alone were visible, and they showed no sign of hand-to-hand struggle.

CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING INVESTIGATION

Some researchers claim some facts were missed, perhaps ignored, by officials:

• 12-year-old Yury Kuntsevich, who would later become head of the Yekaterinburg-based Dyatlov Foundation , attended five of the hikers' funerals and recalls their skin had a "deep brown tan".

• Some of the hikers' clothing (2 pants and sweater) were found to be highly radioactive.

• Another group of hikers (about 50 kilometers south of the incident) reported that they saw strange orange spheres in the night sky to the north (likely in the direction of Kholat Syakhl) on the night of the incident. Similar "spheres" were observed in Ivdel and adjacent areas continually during the period of February to March 1959, by various independent witnesses (including the meteorology service and the military).These were later confirmed by Eugene Buyanov to be test launches of R-7 intercontinental missiles.

• Some reports suggest that there was a great deal of scrap metal in the area and around the area, leading to speculation that the military had utilized the area secretly and might have been engaged in a cover-up.

• The last camp of Dyatlov's group was located on direct way from Baikonur Cosmodrome (where some test launches of the R-7s were executed) to Chyornaya Guba, Novaya Zemlya archipelago (which was a major nuclear testing ground of the Soviet Union).

Freddy Jackson's Ghost

This creepy photo, taken in 1919, was first published in 1975, by Sir Victor Goddard, a retired R.A.F. officer. The photo is a group portrait of Goddard’s squadron, which had served in World War I, aboard the HMS Daedalus. An extra ghostly face appears in the photo. At the back of the airman positioned on the top row, fourth from the left, can clearly be seen the face of another man. It is said to be the face of Freddy Jackson, an air mechanic who had been accidentally killed by an airplane propeller two days earlier. His funeral had taken place on the day this photograph was snapped. Members of the squadron easily recognized the face as Jackson’s. It has been suggested that Jackson, unaware of his death, decided to show up for the group photo. In case you don’t notice the ghost – look behind the head in the inset on the left of the picture.
