Binging this now in Iceland in the summer time, which I guess is more like your weather in the winter (and same time of the year). Beautiful midnight sun stuck around the horizon, but my eyes are locked on the screen.
I think it’s the intro song, excellent, the later show with Dannis Ferrina god rest his soul, intro song sucked and it was becoming more like forensic files murders all the time and less about mysteries
Personally, I hold nothing against the late Dennis Farina. When the series was revived, Robert Stack had passed away a few years prior so they needed to find someone to carry the baton. It is true that things were different for Farina such as cases that had updates previously, but in all honesty, it was good to see there was still interest for the show. I feel that updating the theme and graphics was an idea to stay modern, but I agree it did take away from the concept in some way. Like I said, nothing against Farina...but Stack definitely had the right style and capabilities for Unsolved Mysteries
Charita and Nikki’s story made me cry. I had major surgery when I was twelve years old. My spleen began to rupture when I was six years old and for six years I was misdiagnosed by doctors. When my the rupture it caused my spleen to soak up all my blood. I was clinically dead for a minute and a half. I had surgery and had to stay in the hospital for two weeks. I never had a roommate and I remember feeling lonely sometimes. I did get to meet and play with other kids in a game room at the hospital. I do have fond memories of a nurse named Karen who helped me be brave every time I felt scared. I am 40-years-old now and never had any kids because of other medical complications. I was born with Sickle Cell Anemia and that’s what caused my spleen to rupture. Watching this episode made me wish I had a roommate back then. Someone to talk to late at night when I couldn’t sleep. My mom did stay overnight with me every weekend, but she and my dad had to work and couldn’t stay on weeknights. This story also reminded me how great full I am to be alive. I should’ve died back then, but God speared my life and I will always be great full to be alive.
These are edited from the originals. I know a few stories that have been edited I guess for different reasons. The original last ep on the house fire they found a jacket, and a bowl you use to crush herbs. But that wasn't mentioned in this series. I have also noted this one a few eps but I still love the production.
I like this episode, but I LOVED the Charita Harding episode. It was so selfless of her friend to share her daughter with Charita, since she does not have children. A BEAUTIFUL STORY!😘
Tricia Johansen Oh gosh that segment brought tears to my eyes. I remember back when I first watch this just hoping and praying that they would reunite again, and then feeling so happy when they did. 😊
The last story is absolutely beautiful. I forgot about it until this posting. Now I remember it as a kid. It's nice to know that friends, no matter how long they don't see each other, are always friends at heart and never forget each other. And not to mention the impact people can make on one another. So glad Niki found Charita and got to fulfill her wish. I wonder how they are doing now. Niki's little girl is all grown up now. I'm sure she knows all about their beautiful history. UM is amazing with these reunions.
They’re both alive and well. The mother is my grand aunt and the little girl is her daughter Kennedy, she’s my 1st cousin once removed and she has 3 kids of her own now
@@Stefan-ji2ek Same here! Yeah, sometimes they would have bittersweet updates to them (there were a couple eps where siblings who'd been separated by Foster Care found out after the episode aired that one of them had died - I remember the one where it was identical twins who, unbeknownst to them, lived in the same town basically their entire lives, unfortunately one died just a few weeks before reuniting), but at least the person who was on the show would get a sense of closure, and often learn what happened to the other person. They were really nice, optimistic segments that would balance the true crime and paranormal segments, and this was one of the best of the UM "Lost Love" segments, and was just so sweet with the updated info.
Kevin Poulsen is a true example of a person turning their life around. After serving his prison sentence, Poulsen used his computer skills to assist the FBI to stop internet banking scams, terrorist financiers and online sexual predators. He later became an editor at ‘Wired’ magazine.
@A Fing oh no! EYE'M 90 YRS OLD AND my husband juss died five seconds ago! (Owww! Grrrr! Ohhh!?) Does dat mean im a gonner soon? Say it aint so.....😭😭😪😪😪😥😢😢😃
@cinnamongirl3121 I agree I wish I could get another picture, this one is embarrassing its a dumb vacation pic. Yes Michael is my real name, gotta run i'm still on season 3...
I went to the Syracuse flea market this last weekend and bought an advertising piece. Its for Stanley E. Gryziec Wine and Liqours store from the 50s or 60s in a frame. It has a thermometer and a lithograph of a hunting scene. The guy that sold it to me told me about the sad story but I liked it for the picture. I found this video pretty easily. Another cool piece for my collection.
Oh my, I love this program. I love that they had a mix of different cases it's not just homicide or UFOs. I really enjoy watching all these stories, some might be scary, but some others like Charita's are so beautiful. I am glad that both friends were finally able to reunite. I hope that up to this date they are still alive and doing good.
The case of Kevin Paulson is still one of my favorite episodes of unsolved mysteries probably because I like vintage technology and of course the reenactment itself.
The first story is so weird on so many levels. Who are these two guys? Why did the first autopsy state that Stanley died from a stab wound when he was shot? Why the cover up from the original investigators? Really strange. 😕
Like check out the story of bobby darin? I think that is his name he wrote the song I fought the law a d the law won. He was found dead under suspicous circumstances
Wow you people need to take the tinfoil hats off. The cops were stupid and lazy and messed up the investigation and didn’t want to admit that and look stupid hence the cover up
The story of the two girls in the hospital really hits home. Couple years ago my son ended up with a extremely rare brain tumor, ATRT. While going thru treatment we made some friends, Harper. Unfortunately my son did not make it, but harper is still doing cancer treatment and is doing well. She still talks about kaine.
None of Your business I’ve been trying to get him to help me with my fantasy baseball... he still won’t help me cheat... Good for him... using his powers for good... yea.... good for him...
Very touching this story about Charita and LaHarriet and how can a real friendship bond endure for keeps. I enjoy watching so edifying videos as these.
Omg... 😞😥😩 @39:05 had me bawling my eyes out 💔 soo sweet 😭😭 i so remember this episode from back in the day ♡⚘ Tysm to the uploader of these great nostalgic videos! 😘😘💕
Best story imo was of Niki and Charita. How wonderful and heartwarming. So thrilling that they were reunited after all those years, and under such happy circumstances. Beautiful story.❤️
There might be infamous criminals and lost souls, and yet, the friendship of the two little girls brought tears to my heart. After all, love and friendship save the world from its evil and misery...
Stanley Gryziec's case is tricky, at least when the shell casing turned up. On one side, the police do keep details in these cases secret so if someone confesses to the crime but leaves out that detail, they can be exposed as frauds (people do confess to killings they didn't do, bizarre as it may be), and so there IS secrecy needed to an extent, but when it's clear there's something deeper then that going on, it's too late to get the physical evidence because it's been whisked away out of sight.
This is an old post so, but I’d like to give my two cents. - A lot of the bars owned in the Rome/Utica area of upstate NY were fronts for “wise guys” so to say. They’d get some local individuals to sign the deed and liquor license, then these mafia types would run the place as they wanted. Gambling, prostitution and drugs were everywhere. Even old time speak-easy places that were open 24/7. There was at the time a huge U.S. Air Force base in Rome that was basically like a giant piggy bank for these types. And Utica was always known as place for people who were wanted in other jurisdictions to hide/jump bail or flee into. Lots of street types, lowlifes and gang members flock to that particular area. All this combined for a massive organized crime presence. I believe that played into that case.
I believe the police was trying to cover it up and keep something or someone from being exposed because lets just say they wanted to keep the spent shell casing under wraps just for the sake of someone confessing… but then you have Cause of Death: Stabbing… when clearly he was Shot! If it wasn't for his wife being persistent on him being shot (because she saw the gun laying right in front of her eyes 👀) it more than likely would've remained as a stabbing! Then the cops not writing anywhere in the reports about witnesses who gave pacific details. Smells shady all across the board to me!
So, on the first story the investigators were so thorough they knew the only things missing were 2 beers; and also knew that they must have been looking for a "piece of paper".
18:00 COMPOSITE sketches!! I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Japanese-American. Male. Composite sketches used to scare the CRAP out of me. I needed my mother or father to watch with me, because these were so scary! Great to read in comments, that I wasn't alone, in that regard! Robert Stack's PERFECT voice for this kind of show, added to the scariness!!
@@HeavyJ713 There is supposedly new info about the "boys on the tracks" case. Something about drugs being dropped from airplanes and the police were in on it and the boys happened to come across a transaction to where they could identify people. I think an inmate that is currently locked up came forward with this info. It was looked into and all his info was turning out to add up and be real. I can't remember where I heard this but it's on here [youtube]
@@brandysigmon9066 I think young Norman Ladner died for the same reason as the boys on the tracks, he witnessed an elaborate drug deal in the forest and was silenced.
@@brandysigmon9066 former pro wrestler billy jack haynes said he was there at the tracks. He talked to the mom recently. Google it. Its on YT too. I was shocked because i remember him as a WWF wrestler from the 80s!
This show rocks so hard. It's even better on youtube, because there is a communal aspect -- comments. We can all be like WHA???? :o and get creeped out together. :)
Okay now unsolved mystries....it's not okay to make me burst into tears when I watched the two little beasties. I come here expecting ghost stories/fugitive stories. I literally was praying they had an update and they didn't disappoint.
The first story makes me feel really sad for the mother. As much as I adore the happy stories at the tail-end of these episodes, it's the first stories that give me a sobering reminder that the universe is not fair and life is just never ending miasma of pain and misery. This is why we sedate ourselves with excessive consumerism, television, videogames and drugs.
*Join Me Again Next Week; Perhaps YOU May Be Able To Help Solve A Mystery* *When this episode aired, Dark-Dante crashed unsolved mysteries 1-800 number lol*
Are you serious is that true he crashed one 800-876-5353 with those chintzy disguises I would love to have one of those call sets back then that I could just listen to people's conversations and stuff and that makes me creepy I mean I don't want to spy on people like physically but I would like to listen in on them
Here's what I think happened in the first story. The bar that his brother owned the license for had illegal drugs and gambling and possibly other things going on in it and the police were paid off to look the other way and so the cops when it got time to investigate the murder scene didn't want their cash to dry up so that's why they ignored the evidence.
The Nikki and Charita story reduced me to tears.Such overwhelming compassion for a fellow human being we can all learn a lesson from this poignant story.
Season 3 is when this show really picked up. I have no recollection of big foot and aliens on Unsolved Mysteries, but the general sense of dread and impending doom from these tragic homicidal stories, yes, yes I do.
The one about Charita, Niki, and daughter Charita was unequivocally one of the sweetest stories l ever saw on Unsolved. And l saw many an episode. Young Charita, l hope you grew up with the heart of gold that your mother and godmother do!!!!
In 2007 Kevin Poulsen posted that he would trade his car for a jailbroken apple iPhone. I emailed his secretary stating I would trade and surprisingly I heard back and Kevin had a good laugh he said it was actually a joke and that he had already purchased an iPhone and figured out how to jailbreak it. He said I was actually the only person to reply to his request even though it was a joke he added. 😂
Shortly after the broadcast, FBI investigators received information that Poulsen was living in the Los Angeles area. Authorities located several of Poulsen's acquaintances and one of them stated that they had seen Poulsen at "Hughes Market" and frequented that location. Three weeks later, Poulsen returned to the market. Manager Brian Bridges recognized Poulsen when he entered the store and notified the FBI. However, Poulsen left before agents arrived. One of the investigators decided to do surveillance on the market and shortly before midnight Poulsen returned once again. Once he entered the market, the agent told Bridges that Poulsen was once again at the store. While checking him out, two store clerks tackled Poulsen to the ground and he was soon arrested by a security guard. FBI agents later came and took him into custody. Poulsen pleaded guilty to conspiracy, fraud, and intercepting wire transmissions. He was sentenced to 54 months in prison. After he was released, he changed his life for the better by becoming a journalist and making a computer script that helped locate over 700 sex offenders on Myspace.
Following his release, Poulsen reinvented himself and tried to distance himself from his criminal past. He became a journalist, writing about cyber security topics. He is now a contributing editor for The Daily Beast. In 2006, he created a computer script that helped locate over 700 sex offenders on MySpace.
How could they even determine 2 beers were taken in the first place? Did they ask the grieving wife what the beer count was before? Did she offer up the info? I think her mind was on much heavier issues. Who even checked the fridge contents to begin with? Is that typical when investigating a burglary?
Given what we now know about their surveillance of citizens without their knowledge, you have to wonder if the NSA made use of Kevin Paulson's talents at some point.
Cold rainy night here in Australia, I'm laying in bed with a coffee and chocolate binging on these videos. Thanks for uploading these videos

Beautiful story of friendship between the two little girls in the hospital .
No else can do this series justice like Robert Stack. His dead pan, creepy demeanor is what made this show in my opinion.
And he was just as deadpan when the situation was humorous. Some of the series' best moments.
I think it’s the intro song, excellent, the later show with Dannis Ferrina god rest his soul, intro song sucked and it was becoming more like forensic files murders all the time and less about mysteries
A true legend...

The hospital story with those two girls, that was heartwarming.
Keep them coming!! I love this show!!
It seems as if at least one cop was covering for the murderer of Stanley Greesic.
That's certainly a possibility. It could also be that they were too embarrassed to admit they botched the crime scene.
@@buddapudgie8482than why lie about the cause of death being a stab wound too

So, on the first story the investigators were so thorough they knew the only things missing were 2 beers; and also knew that they must have been looking for a "piece of paper".
Surprise! Another police cover up! 😀
Also, the way Robert Stack says, "But who?? And why??" Simply the best.
the best part is how surprised so many people are in the comments. So many people drunk on the 'police never do wrong' koolaid.
It’s a hick town. I really think the cops were bumbling idiots.
I could hear his voice while reading your comment lol
It wouldn't surprise me if Kevin was evenually hired or contracted by the U.S. Government to be a hacker. This was a wild time.
He wrote a piece of software that could help track down Pedophiles on Myspace. I'm not sure what h s doing now though
@@HeavyJ713 He is also now a journalist with The Daily Beast.
H e went on to be an editor of a tech magazine.
Used to whatch unsolved mysteries all the time. R i p Robert stack
Man, I love the updates.
Me too.
18:00 COMPOSITE sketches!! I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Japanese-American. Male. Composite sketches used to scare the CRAP out of me. I needed my mother or father to watch with me, because these were so scary! Great to read in comments, that I wasn't alone, in that regard! Robert Stack's PERFECT voice for this kind of show, added to the scariness!!
Omg 😭 The last story is beautiful. I hope they are still a close family 💖
Funny as hell.. they looked for this guy so hard, made him out to be some awesome criminal mind, just to give him a job. Lol
That is what they always do.
Frfr boredom is a helluva drug
His only crime was being nosey ..
You're sick. I may have to kick your ass
Operation Paperclip
7:34, "yea, that's a shell casing alright!"
Those ladies from the hospital are awesome!!!
last story was beautiful...
The Stanley Gryziec segment is one of my favs
The ones that stick out in my mind are Angie Hammond, Dick Henson, and The Boys on the tracks.....
@@HeavyJ713 There is supposedly new info about the "boys on the tracks" case. Something about drugs being dropped from airplanes and the police were in on it and the boys happened to come across a transaction to where they could identify people. I think an inmate that is currently locked up came forward with this info. It was looked into and all his info was turning out to add up and be real. I can't remember where I heard this but it's on here [youtube]
@@brandysigmon9066 I think young Norman Ladner died for the same reason as the boys on the tracks, he witnessed an elaborate drug deal in the forest and was silenced.
@@brandysigmon9066 former pro wrestler billy jack haynes said he was there at the tracks. He talked to the mom recently. Google it. Its on YT too. I was shocked because i remember him as a WWF wrestler from the 80s!
@@HeavyJ713 need to look up Henson the other two omg yesss they stick out in mind too over all these years
This show rocks so hard. It's even better on youtube, because there is a communal aspect -- comments. We can all be like WHA???? :o and get creeped out together. :)
I myself lost touch with the Testa family from Hometown, IL. I knew them from 1984 till 2000. I miss them terribly.
u mean the Tesla family, right?
Yep, that's a shell casing alright!
Last story was touching
Aw, the two little actresses playing the girls in the hospital did a great job.
We need updates on the updates for 2023
21:59 - What is your favourite song? - Star Wars.
your comment made me laugh so hard i woke up my boyfriend
Damn they had internet in 1983, I had no idea. Weird seeing a computer during that time. I was born the next year.
Lmao really? The 90's is when the computer games were really good. You haven't lived if you didn't play the original Oregon trail lol
They had computers in the60s, analog computers before that in the 40s
Last segment: I appreciate these more now that I'm older.
Okay now unsolved mystries....it's not okay to make me burst into tears when I watched the two little beasties. I come here expecting ghost stories/fugitive stories. I literally was praying they had an update and they didn't disappoint.
The story about Harriet & charita is very sweet!
The first story makes me feel really sad for the mother.
As much as I adore the happy stories at the tail-end of these episodes, it's the first stories that give me a sobering reminder that the universe is not fair and life is just never ending miasma of pain and misery. This is why we sedate ourselves with excessive consumerism, television, videogames and drugs.
The last story made me cry of happiness. 😢❤
*Join Me Again Next Week; Perhaps YOU May Be Able To Help Solve A Mystery*
*When this episode aired, Dark-Dante crashed unsolved mysteries 1-800 number lol*
Are you serious is that true he crashed one 800-876-5353 with those chintzy disguises I would love to have one of those call sets back then that I could just listen to people's conversations and stuff and that makes me creepy I mean I don't want to spy on people like physically but I would like to listen in on them
Aaron Bradley Creepy? More like harrowing. Seek help sir.
Aaron Bradley you need help
@@aaronbradley3232 you should have been born in East Germany
@@decimusmaximus2486 or east virginia (not west virginia)
Im surprised the cops didnt say the old lady tied herself up after killing her husband
Here's what I think happened in the first story. The bar that his brother owned the license for had illegal drugs and gambling and possibly other things going on in it and the police were paid off to look the other way and so the cops when it got time to investigate the murder scene didn't want their cash to dry up so that's why they ignored the evidence.
Not implausible, but where does the murder tie into all of it?
I agree cops were obviously paid off, i mean a 2yr old could put all these pieces together
Frank Halik killed Stanley. It was mob connected. Rome police investigators got paid off to botch the investigation
Captured in Kenosha !!! SWEAT HEART SWINDLER! ONLY thing my city is famous for lol
Jake Doc Not anymore...
@@jackbray3554 lol
Kenosha WI was home to the Nash automobile plant which eventually became American Motors and then subsequently Chrysler.
The Nikki and Charita story reduced me to tears.Such overwhelming compassion for a fellow human being we can all learn a lesson from this poignant story.
Season 3 is when this show really picked up. I have no recollection of big foot and aliens on Unsolved Mysteries, but the general sense of dread and impending doom from these tragic homicidal stories, yes, yes I do.
I ALWAYS cry like a little baby at Niki & Charita's story ❤
The one about Charita, Niki, and daughter Charita was unequivocally one of the sweetest stories l ever saw on Unsolved. And l saw many an episode. Young Charita, l hope you grew up with the heart of gold that your mother and godmother do!!!!
In 2007 Kevin Poulsen posted that he would trade his car for a jailbroken apple iPhone. I emailed his secretary stating I would trade and surprisingly I heard back and Kevin had a good laugh he said it was actually a joke and that he had already purchased an iPhone and figured out how to jailbreak it. He said I was actually the only person to reply to his request even though it was a joke he added. 😂
Oh lord. Another swift kick in the feels! The hospital friends segment.
Laharriet Wade was hit by a car and killed in May 2017 while removing a deceased cat from the road. May she rest in peace.
Hows this for an unsolved mystery: this episode mentioned an event in 1991 but the credits say copyright 1990.
Time machine 😂
Miss the 80s we dont get to see this tipe of tv series in south Africa anymore....
I feel so let down when there’s NO Update on the story I just watched!!!! 😞
I know the feeling lol
True Friendship always lasts forever 💜💜💜
That deep piano note at 28:54....😂 Great stuff
Shortly after the broadcast, FBI investigators received information that Poulsen was living in the Los Angeles area. Authorities located several of Poulsen's acquaintances and one of them stated that they had seen Poulsen at "Hughes Market" and frequented that location.
Three weeks later, Poulsen returned to the market. Manager Brian Bridges recognized Poulsen when he entered the store and notified the FBI. However, Poulsen left before agents arrived. One of the investigators decided to do surveillance on the market and shortly before midnight Poulsen returned once again. Once he entered the market, the agent told Bridges that Poulsen was once again at the store. While checking him out, two store clerks tackled Poulsen to the ground and he was soon arrested by a security guard. FBI agents later came and took him into custody.
Poulsen pleaded guilty to conspiracy, fraud, and intercepting wire transmissions. He was sentenced to 54 months in prison. After he was released, he changed his life for the better by becoming a journalist and making a computer script that helped locate over 700 sex offenders on Myspace.
Thanks tips i think we got that from the show
You need a life bro. TLDR
@@noneofyourbusiness6193 but I do have one
Jamie Phillips not you ,my bad. I was talking about the idiot who wrote all that out
@@noneofyourbusiness6193 ya he does it every episode and I break him every time
Following his release, Poulsen reinvented himself and tried to distance himself from his criminal past. He became a journalist, writing about cyber security topics. He is now a contributing editor for The Daily Beast. In 2006, he created a computer script that helped locate over 700 sex offenders on MySpace.
22:52 - Wow, I know it was the 80s, but you'd think their password still would have been longer and much less obvious.
How could they even determine 2 beers were taken in the first place? Did they ask the grieving wife what the beer count was before? Did she offer up the info? I think her mind was on much heavier issues. Who even checked the fridge contents to begin with? Is that typical when investigating a burglary?
This made me 😆 laugh! Your right!
police: /cracks open two bottles
"You're down two beers in the fridge there"
It was all a cover up guys the cops were paid off
Poor old woman :(
Given what we now know about their surveillance of citizens without their knowledge, you have to wonder if the NSA made use of Kevin Paulson's talents at some point.
