The Creepiest Mysteries You Probably Haven’t Heard Of

there's no shortage of creepy and terrifying mysteries in the world while technology has come a long way in terms of solving cold cases and explaining seemingly paranormal phenomena it has also expanded our ability to communicate with one another and share creepy off-putting and macabre stories from around the globe here today some of the creepiest mysteries that you probably haven't heard of [Music] back in 2014 a student in fiji got in a cab and found a cell phone on the scene next to him being the good samaritan that he was the student looked on the phone to see if he could find anything that might identify the owner so he could return it to them or maybe he was just hoping that the phone belonged to a girl who enjoyed taking erotic selfies since he went looking through the image and video gallery immediately either way nothing prepared him for what he was about to see the video on the phone showed four men clinging to wreckage in the ocean trying to hold their hands up in surrender their pleas for mercy were in vain and the 10-minute video recorded their lives ending in an unnecessarily plentiful barrage of gunfire shocked by the gruesome content the student immediately realized the correct cause of action was to turn the phone over to the fijian authorities but first of all he had to violate youtube's strict no snuff films policy neither the victims nor the assailants were ever identified and how could they be yes there was a video of the four men who were shot to death at sea and after their deaths the executioners whose voices were heard throughout the video yelling things like shoot shoot shoot and be prepared turned the camera around to reveal their faces and posed for several minutes with the camera turned around the registration number on the hull of the ship was visible and it was identified as a taiwanese tuna fishing ship named chun i-217 there really wasn't much evidence to go on the prevailing theory is that the victims were a group of somali pirates who tried to hijack the wrong fishing vessel the attacks in the video were speaking mandarin and the voices have been identified as being taiwanese thai and vietnamese what this ultimately means is that while the phone containing the video was found in fiji neither the alleged pirates or the fishermen were fijian so with no official complaints or reports of missing people the fijian authorities aren't terribly interested in investigating this matter further the people in this video may never be identified but there are two important lessons to learn from it first there was a banner on the fishing vessel that read safety is number one in mandarin so if you ever engage in piracy and see such a sign assume that the crew is heavily armed for their own safety the other lesson is to always lock your cell phone on march 26 1991 five young boys from daegu south korea wanted to have a bit of fun it was a national holiday on account of the first democratic elections in 30 years so with school council they went out to search for salamander eggs in the streams of mount warren one of the boys briefly returned home to grab a thicker jacket then ran off telling his mother that he was going back outside this was the last time any of the boys ages 9 through 13 would ever be seen alive when the boys didn't return home their parents got worried and contacted the police the police weren't all interested saying they were probably just out playing late everything in the country had been consumed by the elections and missing children were not being seen as a priority strange thing not to bring a priority there it took almost a week for the police to take any action at which point they referred to the children as runaways much to the ire of the parents while it had taken far too long for anyone to take the missing children seriously it quickly became a national story an early tv report said that they were hunting for frogs and thus they became known as the frog boys with the south korean media now focused on the story president ro taiwu sent 300 000 police and military troops to search for the missing children and the search was broadcast on live tv luckily for the viewers but unfortunately of the parents no one was found because they were searching for salamander eggs it was believed that they have to have been by the streams of mount war young the mountain was searched over 500 times the fathers of the children quit their jobs to dedicate themselves full time to searching for the children but to no avail after three years of searching they finally returned to work because of financial troubles there was a lot of speculation of foul playing there were plenty of conspiracies the area they were hunting for eggs was near a military base with the shooting range just a few hundred meters up the mountain from a pond well within the effective range of an m16 rifle there had been unofficial reports of a gunshot followed by a scream the day the frog boys went missing but this was largely dismissed because well reasons eleven years after the disappearance two hikers were collecting acorns on a trail on mount war yong when they spotted old clothes among the rocks followed by the boy's remains the sleeves of one of the boys shirts was tied together and when the knot was undone a collection of both unused bullets and empty casings fell out the police came and dug up the bone something they were in no way qualified to do by the time a forensics expert arrived he found an absurd situation the police had spent upwards of three hours destroying the scene due to not being trained to handle something like this and not realizing they should wait for someone who knew what they were doing the next day the police chief declared hypothermia to be the most likely cause of death it hadn't been cold the boys were in an area they knew extremely well and even if it had suddenly become cold rainy and windy it was only about a five minute run back to their houses no one believed this story and further investigation showed trauma to three of the skulls possibly from a blunt metal object the only piece of this case that has been solved is that it's now known to be 100 murder not simply boys who ran away and succumbed to the elements who the culprit is and the motivation remains a mystery by the time the bodies were found there was nothing left but bones and they had to be identified by their clothes and dental braces the parents took the ashes of all five boys to the nakdong river releasing them to float out into the pacific ocean one of the fathers remarked they died together so we wanted them to play together in the afterlife henry mccarth was a liberian man who emigrated to the united states living in mounds view minnesota on september 5th 2015 his wife was in california so henry and his friends went to the club they left the club early in the morning on september 7th henry's friend william kennedy dropped him off at a local gas station convenience store at around 2 o'clock in the morning the only problem was that he had no wallet and no keys william claimed that he had taken henry's wallet at the club to stop him from buying more drinks why yet henry's keys is less clear but with henry's wife out of town he would not be able to get into his house and he was unable to buy whatever snack food at the gas station he was craving when he requested being dropped off there it turns out that this was the least of his problems at 2 28 am his phone pocket died his wife when she picked up the phone she heard him exclaim that he had been shot followed by a combination of unsettling growling noises combined with more high-pitched squealing that was like henry crying henry's wife tried to add his brother to the call but he was asleep and didn't answer his voicemail recorded the last two minutes of the phone call the call is so disturbing that media outlets have not released a full unedited copy of the audio but the sounds of growling can be clearly heard it sounds like something between a bear a wolverine or perhaps chewbacca the voicemail ends with henry yelling stop it while william originally fell under suspicion as the cctv at the gas station did not show him dropping his friend off and because he had henry's personal items in his possession police later found cctv footage of william at a different nearby gas station he simply got the name wrong with no tangible leads all authorities could do was continue the search and hope that when they found henry's body it would give them some clue as to what happened it took almost two months but henry's body was found in rush lake on november 2nd finally it could be examined and they could find out who or what attacked henry the result was shocking the death was deemed unsuspicious there were no signs of a struggle no bite marks from an animal no wounds of any kind despite having explicitly said that he was shot his completely uninjured body seemed to tell a different story henry appeared to have just been another tragic tale of someone that got too drunk and fell in a river or a lake ultimately drowning by all accounts there were absolutely no signs of foul play in this case which makes the voicemail of the attack even more chilling what exactly did the phone record that night [Music] antoinette condito was born in gallup new mexico on christmas 1976. her mother was navajo and her father was hispanic her parents separated at a young age leaving antoinette and her two sisters with her mother around three in the morning on april 6 1986 there was a knock on the door the mother had been out at a bar the night before and was likely too fast to sleep to hear the knock antonette and her younger sister wendy were both awake so they approached the door and asked who it was the voice on the other side of the door said uncle joe and as the girls really did have an uncle joe antonette opened the door she was immediately grabbed by two men who took her kicking and screaming to a brown van wendy said she didn't recognize the men but also didn't get a good look at their faces the next morning her mother went to prepare the girls for bible school something antoinette reportedly loved but she was not in her room her mother checked with all the neighbors to see if anyone had seen her then called the police if you're wondering why wendy didn't immediately go to their mother when antoinette was taken remember that she was only five years old and was likely very scared and confused after witnessing such a traumatic event police along with the help of neighbors and the family searched the area but no trace of the nine-year-old girl was found as the weeks and months passed it seemed as if all hope was lost a year after the disappearance the gallup police department received a phone call from a frantic young girl who identified herself repeatedly as antoinette cardito she said that she was in albuquerque new mexico but before she could give more details an angry adult voice was heard shouting who said you could use the phone there was the sound of the girl screaming then a physical altercation and then nothing as the call disconnected her mother listened to the tape again and again there's absolutely no doubt in her mind that this really was the voice of her daughter but there were no more clues that could be found and the trail went cold the kidnapped girl had still been alive but for how long especially now that she had so severely violated the rules of whoever was holding her captive it seemed like she may never be seen again four more years passed when a waitress at a diner in carson city nevada called the carson city police department about a strange incident that happened that day she was waiting on a party of three an adult male and female both very unkempt and a young girl around the age of 14 or 15. the girl kept deliberately knocking her utensils off the table seemingly to get the waitress's attention and every time she came to pick them up the girl would grab the waitress's hand and squeeze it firmly apparently this sort of thing must happen all the time because the waitress didn't think anything of it and continued on with her job after the family left the restaurant she went to bust the table and upon lifting up the young girl's plate saw a napkin with four words written on it help me call police she called the police and she described the young girl as a potential match for antoinette this was the last time anyone allegedly saw antonette alive over 30 years ago she would be turning 46 years old this christmas and while law enforcement believes that she is deceased she is still officially listed as a missing person and her case remains open there are a lot of theories surrounding what happened to antoinette the girl was obviously kidnapped and seemingly kept alive for years after but with nothing in the way of leads or evidence everything else is just baseless speculation there are many theories some of which revolve around antoinette's mother but they lack any specific evidence with the aforementioned uncle joe having a firm alibi that was corroborated by witnesses the mother being allegedly asleep inside at the time of the abduction and no other leads to point the accusatory finger much of it has fallen to antonette's mother not because of evidence but because of lack of options and because she passed away in 1999 there's no one to defend her or set the record straight the fate of the poor young girl that was kidnapped from her home maybe forever unknown but if she really was the teenager that kept clinging to the waitress's hand in nevada one can only imagine the sort of hell that she was living through for those five years and who knows how much longer [Music] so i hope you enjoyed today's video before you leave let me tell you about a new channel
