There are many mysteries in life that still don’t
have answers, even though science,
technology, and research have come a very
long way. Although we may expect logical
explanations for these things in the future, as
of now we will just have to be satisfied with
our best speculations. These are the 25
greatest unsolved mysteries ever. Prepare to
be puzzled.

25 The Taos Hum
In the small town of Taos, New Mexico, there
is a certain buzz often heard on the horizon
that can be compared to the sound of a distant
diesel engine. Although it can be heard by the
naked ear, various sound detection devices are
not able to pick it up. This is known as the
Taos Hum and up to this day, no one still
knows how this sound is being created.

24 Voynich Manuscript
The Voynich manuscript was written in a
language that men through the centuries have
tried to decode to no avail. The only idea
anyone has of its origin are the drawings found
on various pages.

23 Jack the Ripper
The name Jack the Ripper has been heard in
many shows and movies, pertaining to the
serial killer who murdered 11 women in
London’s east end in the late 1800′s but was
never identified. Most of his victims were
prostitutes, whose bodies were mutilated
beyond recognition and their throats slashed.

22 Bermuda Triangle
Known as the Bermuda Triangle, this legendary
expanse of ocean can be found between the
points of Miami, Bermuda, and Puerto Rico.
Pilots often tell of their instruments going
haywire and numerous ships have been lost at
sea. With explanations ranging from gas
bubbles to aliens, no one is sure what is
behind the strange phenomena.

21 Kryptos
Just outside the CIA headquarters in Langley,
Virginia, you will behold a statue that has
coded encryptions on its surface. This very
captivating sculpture was created by Jim
Sanborn to show that everything can be
resolved and decoded with the use of patterns
and clues. Of the four inscription sections that
were included, only the first three have been
cracked. But the fourth? Not even the brilliant
minds in the CIA were able to get to the
bottom of it.

20 Shepherd’s Monument Inscription
In Staffordshire, England, there is a sculpture
that has invited the wits and intellect of many
intellectuals in an attempt to decode an
inscription reading DOUOSVAVVM. Although the
Shepherd’s Monument was constructed back in
the 18th century, the letters found therein were
never solved, even 250 years after it was
completed.

19 Tamam Shud
Back in December 1948, an unidentified man
was found dead in Somerton Beach, located in
Adelaide, Australia. Found in one of his pockets
was a piece of paper with the words “Tamam
Shud” written on it. The words were translated
“finished” or “ended” based on excerpts found
in The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. Although
governments around the world have tried to
identify the man his identity has remained
mystery.

18 Zodiac Letters
During the 1960s and 1970s, there was a
certain criminal in the San Francisco Bay area
that was identified as the Zodiac killer for the
mind-boggling letters he sent to the police and
to the press. Although one of the four letters
were cracked, which contained a very
disturbing message, the other three have never
been identified, even until now.

17 Georgia Guidestones
Also identified as the American version of
Stonehenge, the Georgia Guidestones located in
Elbert County are shrouded in mystery,
although they were erected only in 1979.
Written on the walls are 10 “new
commandments” written in English, Swahili,
Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, China, Russia, and
Spanish although no one is sure why or for
whom they were meant.

16 Rongorongo
In the mysterious Easter Islands where the
moai stands, a set of glyphs have been
discovered, called the Rongorongo. These
glyphs have never been deciphered although
they may contain clues concerning the huge
heads found scattered around the island.

15 The Loch Ness Monster
For ages, people have been hearing about the
Loch Ness monster and how it baffled everyone
thinking that it is a creature unlike any other.
There have been many sightings over the years
and photos and videos of actual footage have
been checked and looked at time and time
again, confirming if it could be some kind of
sea serpent or a descendant of the dinosaurs.
Even up today, as some are claiming, it still
exists and swims under the waters.

14 Bigfoot
Also known as Sasquatch, bigfoot is
supposedly a creature that lives in the snowy
mountainous regions of the United States and
Canada. It may be identified as a gorilla at
first, however, its walking posture can be
compared to that of a man’s.

13 Black Dahlia Murder
22-year old Elizabeth Short was very active at
promoting herself into showbiz at the time the
Black Dahlia murder occurred, however, no one
knew of the killer or who actually did the
murder.

12 Stonehenge
While Stonehenge is a very fascinating
structure due to the big rocks that stand atop
one another, the biggest mystery isn’t how it
was created but why.

11 Shroud of Turin
The shroud containing an imprint of a human
face has been one of the main focuses of
Christian research, as many have suggested
that the person’s face in the shroud could be
Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

10 The Lost City of Atlantis
The City of Atlantis has been imagined as the
crowning city of Neptune, where mermaids and
mermen live. But based on what Plato has
discussed during his time, specifically with his
two dialogues Timaeus and Critias, it
specifically mentioned the existence of Atlantis
based on the stories being heard during the
journeys, and how Atlantis was in its prime
state, thus giving a clue that the place did
exist as Plato was a real entity. Now that it
sunk into the deep, many are still wondering if
it is real, knowing that there are certain objects
underwater that may be the remnants of this
once beautiful city.

9 Extraterrestrials
From the mysteries found in the Eastern
Islands, to the Bermuda Triangle, and even with
the Roswell Incident during World War II, men
have always been in question as to whether we
are not alone in the universe. With some
claiming to have been abducted and others
calling hogwash, there is as of yet no
consensus.

8 Severed Foot Beach in British
Columbia
It is not uncommon for bodies to wash up on
beaches but for one beach in British Columbia
severed feet have consistently been floating
ashore for the past several years causing
numerous theories to be put forth.

7 Wow! Signal
When Jerry R. Ehman worked under the SETI
Project of the Ohio Wesleyan University’s
Perkins Observatory, he did not expect that he
would be able to pick up a radio frequency
supposedly coming from deep space. He was
able to get a 72-second signal from the
constellation Sagittarius and was never able to
get it again. Up to this day no one is sure
about the origin of the signal. It derived its
name, however, from the “wow!” that Jerry
wrote in the margin of the printout.

6 DB Cooper
When DB Cooper hijacked a Boeing 727 along
with $200,000, he proceeded to jump out of
the plane with a parachute. He was never
found, however, and this remains the only
unsolved case in US aviation history.

5 Lal Bahadur Shastri
He died an unexplainable death since he left
the country healthy. Many have claimed that
he died of heart attack, but the doctors and
other specialists who have checked him out,
including his wife, confirmed that he was A-
okay. His wife had also made the assertion
that the Tashkent Pact, upon signature, gave
the chance for him to be poisoned. This was
never proven since there was no post-mortem
diagnosis of the body so every assumption that
could be answered were already included in the
grave.

4 Nazca Geoglyphs
The Nazca civilization is responsible for some
of the most fascinating geoglyphs on the face
of the Earth. They include everything from
spiders, monkeys, sharks, orcas, and flowers,
the precision of which is incredible given that
the Nazca had no way of examining their work
from above.

3 SS Ourang Medan
What happened to SS Ourang Medan or “Man
from Medan” in Malaysia is perhaps one of the
most fascinating and mind-boggling mysteries
that ever existed in seafaring history.
Everything began with an SOS message in
1947 that mentioned the captain, along with
the rest of the crew, was dead. What’s worse,
even the telegrapher died during the
transmission of the message. When the Silver
Star was able to receive the distress call and
went to inspect the ship, they confirmed the
deaths of all aboard. Speculations of ghosts,
hazardous chemicals, and even aliens have
been raised, but there is still no conclusion as
to what actually happened.

2 Aluminum Wedge of Aiud
Back in 1974, a group of workers in Romania
discovered three different objects 10 meters
deep in a sand trench. Two of the items were
prehistoric elephant bones that have been
dated as old as 2.5 million years ago. The third
object however, is an aluminum wedge that
was found together with the ancient bones.
This discovery dumbfounded most researchers,
as aluminum was difficult to create even by
19th century standards. While some call it
evidence of extraterrestrials, others are calling
it a hoax. Whatever it is, we may never know.

1 Mackenzie Poltergeist in Greyfriars
The Mackenzie Poltergeist 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. Is
it all for show? Maybe there’s only one way to
find out…
