What unsolved mystery / unexplained phenomenon captures your interest the most?

[Valiss]

I listened to a podcast a while ago about Numbers Stations and it was really interesting stuff. You can read about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numbers_station - But bascially there are radio stations that are on 24/7 around the world that read off "random" numbers, repeating them over and over. No one knows where many of they come from or what the numbers mean and some of them have been going for years. You can google around and hear audio clips that people have recorded of the Numbers Station being read. It actually reminds me of LOST season 1 when they heard the message and numbers on the hand radio. Anyway, a cool mystery I thought.

You can listen to some that have been posted to YouTube. Here's a sample:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lC4JRXsWkk&feature=youtube_gdata

So, what strange things facinate you?

Ghosts!
Never acually seen one,and hearing so many people talk about it!

[Welsh Wench]

There are so many....In Search Of was such a great TV show.

I would have to say the lost colony of Roanoke.
Did they starve? Were they massacred by Indians? Did they assimilate into their society?

The only clue was the word "Croatoan" carved into a post of the fort and "Cro" carved into a nearby tree.

I loved "In Search Of"!  Always a great story that make you get the chills.

Don't buy aliens coming all the way to earth only to bugger cows but I do find some "classic" mysteries fascinating...Amelia Earhart and flight 19 are two I'm curious about.  That, and why can't I find that bottle of Sandyman port I know I had before the move...

Somewhere between the ancient drawings on the ground in Peru, the Bermuda Triangle and crop circles, have always been an interesting subjects.

Has anyone caught the show, 'Destination Truth' on the Travel Channel?
I do truly wish they would further their investigations instead of leaving you hanging wondering why they didn't.

I'm very strange in that i cant watch 'horror' movies nbut i am utterly fascinated by the paranormal.


number one on my list, though, is the Winchester Mystery House- i have recurring dreams about it and it is said to be potent with spirits- i really want to go there, but I dont know if i am brave enough to go inside.

i firmly believe in ghosts- our 'spirit', that which makes us alive and animate, is the result of elecrical impulse- and science tells us energy cannot be created or destroyed- so logically, our 'lifeforce' has to go SOMEWHERE!

Huaca Pucllana in Peru swear thats a lot of adobe bricks

[Invy]

Where do all those darn socks disappear too..

I am going to send a expedition of gnomes into my dryer to figure that one out.

I'm going with the Phoenix Lights in 1997.  When public officials, even the mayor, say something is rotten in Denmark, my curiosity is piqued.

If this is the same phenomenon I saw and remember on TV, this is an easy one.....it was skydivers with flares.    As I remember it, it was a string of 6 or 7 lights slowly descending over a city.  It was prolly a SpecOps drop that no one wanted to verify....(am I stirring the pot.....?)


I wanna know how to get rid of all the ghosts at my place, Rogue Manor...it's really bad when the guests start to complain....

[Rani Zemirah]

Well, Stonehenge, of course... but also all of the other standing stone circles around the globe, and how they all seem to be placed along intersections of ley lines, and can have fairly straight lines drawn between them that follow these ley lines...
