In 1994 I came from Italy to here US and I knew no English whatsoever.. and my only friend I had was the tv even though I couldn’t understand they were saying! A few days later I happened to watch these episodes and after that I couldn’t stop watching it bcuz of R. Stak. He’s voice was so freighting n interesting! His voice made the show feel so incredibly eerie n at the same time fun to watch every time! I wanted so bad to know what the stories were about n what was going on! I have to thank R Stak bcuz I was able to learn English fast so that I could understand the stories!!🗽📺
That is amazing ! Funny as I am rewatching this show as I live in Italy ( moved here 8 years ago from the US) as I couldn’t find an Italian crime show and I’ve now just discovered Carli Lucarelli
"perhaps someone, somewhere is watching who knows something. Perhaps..... it's you." *me as a ten year old pissing my pants he was so, so good and I still get goosebumps watching these episodes today on prime
Me as a six year old: "that child abduction would never happen to me" Also six year old me: "that ghost shit is REAL, and those damn aliens are abducting people now!"
This was absolutely one of the greatest shows that ever aired during the 80's -- well into the 90's. Robert stack's voice, combined with stories of mysteries, sad, sometimes eerie tales, were very well executed. I remember watching this show with my family as a kid, and enjoying it, This show was lightning in a bottle.
i agree. this show was one of those rare gems. everything clicked. the music, robert stack, the acting, the emotions, etc. a true masterpiece of television.
Mystery documentaries today just don't have the same creepy feel, like this show did. The directing, reenactments, music, and stack's voice are perfect. My children even love this show as I did as a child. Thanks for putting this out for our enjoyment and nostalgia.
It scared me so much as a kid that I was afraid to open my eyes at night for fear that I would see a ghost. But at the same time I couldn't stop watching it. The person who created this show definitely knew what they were doing.
@@jayslick2739Right!? Like, what are you talking about!? ALL the stories from this series are 100% real. If there's anyone out there who might not think so. 😅
@@Gambit22003 I think "real" is meant in the sense of tangible and present. There's also the point of them *feeling* real. Something can be real but not *feel* real.
@brigidtheirish I love it back then because they'll let the people family act in the segments, then round the mid 90's all that changed the music also but it's was still all good with Robert Stack. I miss the 80's and 90's growing up
When i was a lil girl that music and his voice (perfect combination) scared me... But i never missed an episode. Love the reruns... Thank you for posting them 👍😁❤
Same for when I was growing up. I'd go to bed with tv on after it went off because I didnt want to get oit of covers :p. Awesome that these are finally available!
Same for me i watched every episode it played every friday night's at 9pm as a kid...this show was heavy to watch before bed as a 9 or 10 yr old LOL...americas most wanted played rite after at 10pm
My sister used to say." Isn't he scared to be standing a dark street or in that alley alone?" I told her he isn't alone. He is on TV. He has the camera man, the director, the script guy and the lighting crew there with him.
In 1987, I toured the Queen Mary with my parents while also visiting the then-next door Spruce Goose. While we were in the restaurant, the same exact one that appeared in this episode,, which I believe was at the top of the ship, I had a similar paranormal experience myself. I was 8.5 years old at the time, and I didn't tell anybody about that experience during my childhood because I figured my parents would think I was crazy. It wasn't until I was in my late 30s that I finally told somebody about it. To this day, it was the strongest and most profound paranormal experience I've ever had in my life.
@@OtomoTenzi I distinctly remember we were sitting at a table for 6 which abutted a wall and an etched glass 1/2 divider exactly like the one in the UM episode. I was sitting at the opposite end of the table in the center and I remember feeling a sudden tremendous cold and considering I was a fat kid and it was mid to late April and not even remotely cool out, that struck me as very strange and I looked to my left which was lined with windows and I saw a woman standing by one of those windows who looked as though she had stepped out of a sepia photograph. She was wearing a uniform, it was a full length apron like outfit that went over her shoulders down to her waist, cinched in and the remaining length of it went to within 6 few inches of what I would describe as ankle strap shoes. She smiled as if she saw me and I could've sworn she waved cheerfully as well. I would guess that she was a waitress, or perhaps she was a nurse, early 20s, about 5 ft 5 maybe. Rather pretty too and I thought my mind was playing tricks on me, that I just saw somebody passing quickly but when I looked back, the cold sensation I felt had vanished, and she was gone. Nobody was there here and I quickly concluded that due to the location of our table, there was no way for anyone to have been able to enter or have otherwise passed through unnoticed. I recall feeling very freaked out and very uneasy and wanting desperately to get off that ship. But again, I didn't tell my parents about this because I felt they would never believe me and I didn't want to deal with potentially being called a liar. I think the most tangible feeling I can recall is that element of freezing cold that came and went within a matter of maybe 5 or 10 seconds. It's still gives me chills.
@@richardmills1505 Was that woman that you saw dressed or looked like anything that closely resembles the ghostly lady that was shown in this episode? What time period did you think she looked like she came from? I think they used a wax mannequin dressed in 1940s clothing and hairstyle in that segment instead of a live actress, but still she looked really creepy tho! 😳
@richardmills1505 You know what you saw & felt. I'm sure as you recalled this when you were older, you know exactly what it was. Have you ever thought about visiting the Queen Mary again?
SAME YEAR I TOURED IT!!!! And it WAS creepy as Hell. I had an experience at the Winchester Mystery House. I miss the Spruce Goose!!! I was 15 at the time.
The Queen Mary segment is one of the most memorable ever covered by the series. I just don't remember it airing in Season 1...but apparently, it did. I just loved "Unsolved Mysteries" when it aired in Prime Time...and it's nice to be able to re-watch the episodes now.

The Gail Delano case is an absolute perfect example of why this show was important. Had they never told her story, who knows much more time would’ve passed without knowing what happened to her
She was selfish, though, suicide and leaving her sons so young? I mean, that is cruel to her sons, famliy and is ridiculous. She coldn't be happy by herself???? Suicids is a selfish act.
@@larrywakeman4371 glad your life is so easy that you can look down on the difficult choices of others. Besides it does matter. Her family now knows what happened and that’s some form of closure for them.
Yes, he's very calming and reassuring and I think that's what made him such a great choice and so popular as the host of this show. I think most people are saying the show itself and especially the music was scary, but Robert Stack was not.
I think this show creeps me out more now as an adult than it did when I was a kid. Now as an adult I see how life and people can be so dangerous and some mysteries are never answered. Back then it was just a cool tv show to me.
I love how the two parapsychologist gentlemen approached the idea of paranormal phenomena. They actually came across as intelligent and logical (which is the opposite of how many skeptics who just scream “ghosts aren’t real and people who believe they are are idiots” come across, when they *think* they are coming across intelligent). The true geniuses of society have always kept an open-mind.
People with schizophrenia see things and have conversations with people they believe are as real as flesh and blood individuals. These ghosts/voices are the creations of their own brain. Others hallucinate and see ghosts or hear voices due to the influence of stress, extreme fatigue or intoxicants. Possible/likely the brain also produces these ghosts/voices due to other commonplace underlying stimuli that would not be known to the person experiencing such an occurrence.
Just found out that Gail's son Tim died this September at the age of 52. Very sad. Her other son, sister, and mother are all still alive and well however.
I remember the Gail DeLano story....because I live in Mobile And was saddened that she had ended her life here.Depression is something to be taken seriously as I have dealt with it.May her beautiful soul Rest In Peace
I live in Mobile too!!! Theodore to be exact!! I can not remember the first name alias she used at the hotel but the last was "Stafford." I thought it was weird because one of my best friend's growing up had a similar first name and the last name Stafford. She had the same body type. She is like 5'10. Similar hair cut but her hair was blonde or dirty blonde. Her mom still lives in Mobile and lives in one of the if not then THE first house built in Theodore. Its off in the woods off Highway 90. Looks like the house off "The birds." Remake not Alfred Hitchcock's. We thought it was haunted. There were servant quarters, an old chicken coop and barn. Really narrow stairs going up to a second floor and all of it was orginal!! You walked in and felt like you were in one of those scary plantation houses off the movies. Original claw foot bathtub. Even glass doors knobs. No one even knows the house is where it is. Its VERY close to Theodore High school. We walked there. We I sat hidden I mean HiDDEN. You have to go down a long driveway that could easily get mistaken for the driveway of a business thats in front. But this house is behind it near the train tracks. Also very oddly and I have yet to figure out....whoever owned that house owned a fair or carnival. There are bumper cars, ferris wheel you name it behind it in the woods. Has to have been sitting back there for 30 years. There is even a disco ball. Vines and rust. Even the toys you won. Crazy. Yep.
Being born in 1981 this show was a MUST SEE every week. I just knew that eventually there would be a story that I information on. Never came to fruition but I do now recognize some of the character actors that are now famous in some of the stories.
It's the way he talks to the audience; Robert Stack had a very clam and 'detached' tone of voice that nobody can ever match... That's why the show was such a HUGE success back in the 80's and 90's.
seems everyone is binge watching these. always loved this show my ex husband said i was addicted looks like my addiction has returned lol. thanks for uploading these !
@Hana Yancey yeah I can which is why you make no sense. What does "being in crystal clear quality" mean for them being in the 70s and 80s? Cryatal clear quality to a normal english speaker would refer to the picture qulity of the filming. Can you not speak english?
It could've just been fabricated to add more creepiness to the show... If all those banging noises and moaning voices were really constantly happening down there in the ship's hull, many modern-day paranormal researchers (armed with all the latest technology) would've made a TON of actual recordings by now! 🤔
@OtomoTenzi I don't think so, jack. There are mysteries in this world that man will never understand with all his technology. Some things aren't meant to be understood.
@@azchanna I know and yes it was stupid. When A&E started showing reruns of the old "In Search Of" series back in the early 2000's they ditched the original intro music and replaced it with some silly synth-pop sounding crap that did it no justice whatsoever.
@@phayzyre1052 I'm inclined to go easy on ol' Dennis: as a real-life ex-cop, he actually narrated true crime stories pretty well. It was simply the creepier mysteries that escaped him, and the revised music & graphics (as you say) didn't help the show as a whole. Dennis needed a co-host, really, and the show needed to keep the old music.
Nick Hentschel Dennis seemed to be a real down to earth kind of guy; almost like an old friend you could meet at the bar and have a few beers with. It’s a shame he’s no longer with us!
I loved his voice but the ghost stories scare me to death especially the episode the other episode in trying to think of it it's called Mary something I think resurrection Mary now that was scary
I never watched these when they came out but I'd heard a lot about them. Robert Stack has a certain compelling and classy nature with his presence and narration. I can see how he is able to draw you into the show.
So STOKED these originals were finally uploaded to RUclips legit! I’ve yet to watch a crime show that sends a chill down my spine like this show did. Woo hoo!
I remember going to see the Queen Mary when I visited California in 2007. It really was quite the ship. One part I remember in particular was seeing the area where the pool was. Looking at this video, I learned more about it than what I did from when I actually set foot on it. It really is strange of the things that have happened.
The two "friends" who sat in the backseat and watched that man sexually assault a teenager and then run off and harm her are partially involved as far as I'm concerned. Who just sits back and watches that?!
The Queen Mary story always scared the crap out of me as a kid, especially the part @9:49. When I was little he looked so much scarier, but now, I see he's just normal looking.
An episode of Quantum Leap was filmed on this ship permanently moored at Long Beach, CA. A Poirot episode was filmed on the supposed Queen Mary, although I do not know if it was filmed on this ship or another one. The pool area is quite fascinating. I know it's haunted but I wonder why the pool is not filled with water? It is a nice example of 1930s Art Deco design.
@@goombabear state regulation and the fact the during the conversion from ocean liner to hotel and attraction they gutted a lot of the ship. As time went by they feared that the weight of the water would collapse the pool cause there were no longer proper support underneath it. The ship is in really bad shape and some fear that the long neglect is beyond repair. The state of the pool currently is sad.
One of the best shows I ever watched. Made me love Wednesdays 800pm on channel 43 for me. I was home alone, scared watching this with every single light on in my mom's house 😆😄 Stack was the best!!
Same here, I was also about your age and grade level when these episodes first aired... Everyone in my class who watched it was SPOOKED. The whole 'creep factor' was definitely there! 😱
16:49 She never returned, So he came out of the woods to his friends without her, and moved her later from the woods to outside his home? Id likes to know what his "pals" actually said happened.
Did people mature faster in the 80s? I'm shocked Gail Delano was only 34! She seemed like a classy nurturing middle-aged mom (like a modern 54), not my age lol
the queen mary tape recorder scared me as a kid. i would snuggle up on the couch and be terrified to go to my bedroom. my dad would laugh and say it was just a tv show.
It could've just been fabricated to add more creepiness to the show... If all those noises and voices were really always constantly happening down there in the ship's hull, many modern-day paranormal researchers (with all the latest technology) would've made a TON of actual recordings by now! 🤔
I was on the Queen Mary when it was docked in California several years after this episode. I can tell you for sure it was haunted and looking back it was a great experience to be on this behemoth.
I have been binge watching every episode. I have been waiting for these but wow has times changed he pulled a shotgun out on cops and only got aggravated assault on a police officer and bail.
They did fire two "warning shots". I think they had no choice but to wrestle with him and it just ended up that they were able to take him in without harming him
Times haven't changed. In Texas, a White female cop, murdered an unarmed black man in his own house, after she performed a home invasion. She only received ten years, and even got a hug from the judge. The more things change, the more they stay the same
@Robert Courson it's not that simple with depression. It is complex and can be debilitating. Try and understand. Delano (if it is a suicide) didn't commit suicide because she couldn't get a man - depression can bring you to suicide even if one seemingly has no problems. That's how dangerous this mental illness is. I know, I suffer through it every day.
@@robertcourson8002 She was already taking medication, as was stated in the reenactment. Medication for depression is merely a bandaid. It doesn't solve the problem. You sound somewhat ignorant on this subject.
sigh. . . the title tune always brings back childhood memories of sneaking out of bed and creeping downstairs to catch the late night re-run every week, then being to creeped out to go back to sleep.
Ugh I didn't sleep for a week after seeing those darn watery ghost footprints from the Queen Mary as a kid!! I swear, this show caused me more anxiety growing up than anything else.
Oh man... The ghost of the woman who was sitting at the table and not moving made my skin crawl... It would be awesome if you guys compiled all the ghost stories. They're so creepy!
That was such a heartbreaking story. It's amazing how much older people looked/acted in the 80s too. Gail seemed like such a mature middle-aged mom, but today 34 is still pretty young
@@staceykersting705 I don't agree a lot of people are low and when they find someone they love and who loves them ,that's all you need,i no what you are saying about you have to love yourself and you are right,but I feel that all that gail wanted was a nice man to share the rest of her life with,she was very lonely.
@@joannerutledge1377 IMHO...since she was so lost, she'd be cruisin' for disaster. The guys who pick up on the lonely vibe can spot their next 'victim' a mile away. Truly nice guys seem to be drawn toward more self-sufficient women. This has been my experience. Also plenty of info about domestic violence, etc. Hurt people hurt ppl. You can't use someone else as a crutch to prop up your shaky life, and u can't 'fix' anybody. All that only ends up in resentment.
@@joannerutledge1377 I always wondered if her long conversations with the guy john that she was having over the phone were real. I also wondered how she picked such a far away place to disappear to for the suicide.
"Sheppard has recently been seen in El Paso, Texas. The authorities believe he may be living along the Mexican border." 28:20 "Update; London, Ontario, Canada." Me thinks the authorities were searching the wrong border. 😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂
@@mommabear5758 That's ridiculous considering it was Joe that tried to assault/kill the Monroe Cty deputy's that came to his door for questioning. My ex-stepdad and his extended family have lived in Tellico Plains for over 150 years, I'll have to ask him about this case since he was about 18 years old when it happened. Might've even known the vic/perp.
@@stupidkitty84 i didn't say the whole family wasn't crazy 😂 but it is a rumor that circulates there. My family has been there for about that long too.
The only terribly sad thing around here is how easy people can accept things without any questioning whatsoever. That case has more holes than a fishing net. I'm shocked to see all the comments of all these blind people just accepting the suicide story. SMH Personally I think she was kidnapped and murdered. Well...now that I think about it...that's terribly sad too, but...yeah. =(
9:50 exact same thing happened to me when I lived in an apartment complex in 2015, I was leaving out my apartment to run an errand about 6pm. As I'm walking down the long hallway , heading to the backdoor, and all of o sudden, I heard a man walking behind me and seen him briefly out the corner of my eyes, when I turned around and stepped to the side to tell him to go ahead of me, he wasn't there. I was really spooked. I remember it like it was yesterday.
It's the way he talks to the audience... Robert Stack had a very calm, soothing and 'detached' tone of voice that nobody on Earth could ever match. Leonard Nimoy (In Search Of) was also a pretty good host too. He seemed very serious and knowledgeable on the subject matter, and his voice was always a welcome familiar one with his fans. At least he was NO stranger when it came to Sci-Fi movies or paranormal shows. Mr. Nimoy was a true master of his art. That's why the old creepy shows were such HUGE successes back in the 70's, 80's, and 90's. At least they were NOT a waste of your time. They had good 'rerun value', so to speak. Nowadays, whenever I hear the way people talk with all those ULTRA annoying-ass voices combined with the stupid modern music and crappy low production values; I just want to turn the goddamn TV off and throw it straight out the window!

@@larrywakeman4371I was thinking the very same thing. Needed a man to define her, pitiful.
I know some people find these creepy, but I find Robert Stacks voice very calming.
Yes, he's very calming and reassuring and I think that's what made him such a great choice and so popular as the host of this show. I think most people are saying the show itself and especially the music was scary, but Robert Stack was not.
I think that's the point. He makes us feel better about this kind of bad stuff. Idk if that makes sense but I find it helps.
@@robbiereilly Also, Stack had a mysterious and ethereal voice suitable for this program.
Oh.
Me too Cat. He'd be good for ASMR. Isn't he dead now?
I think this show creeps me out more now as an adult than it did when I was a kid.
Now as an adult I see how life and people can be so dangerous and some mysteries are never answered. Back then it was just a cool tv show to me.
The production value of these reconstructions are amazing
This Show Is just a gem
I have been watching Unsolved Mysteries for 30+ years Love the show
Same!!
I love how the two parapsychologist gentlemen approached the idea of paranormal phenomena. They actually came across as intelligent and logical (which is the opposite of how many skeptics who just scream “ghosts aren’t real and people who believe they are are idiots” come across, when they *think* they are coming across intelligent). The true geniuses of society have always kept an open-mind.
It's one of those things you can't just wish away if you experience it personally.
People with schizophrenia see things and have conversations with people they believe are as real as flesh and blood individuals. These ghosts/voices are the creations of their own brain. Others hallucinate and see ghosts or hear voices due to the influence of stress, extreme fatigue or intoxicants. Possible/likely the brain also produces these ghosts/voices due to other commonplace underlying stimuli that would not be known to the person experiencing such an occurrence.
Just found out that Gail's son Tim died this September at the age of 52. Very sad. Her other son, sister, and mother are all still alive and well however.
Wow. Thanks
Sadly he took his own life aswell
If her mother is still alive (2023) she must be well in her 90s
Sorry. For. Ur. Loss😢
@@neilreynolds17681Her mom died 2023 at the age of 98.
Gosh, with Robert Stack talk about hauntings and ghosts makes me shiver. I really love the old Unsolved Mysteries broadcasts on ghosts.
I remember the Gail DeLano story....because I live in Mobile And was saddened that she had ended her life here.Depression is something to be taken seriously as I have dealt with it.May her beautiful soul Rest In Peace
Her poor family......especially her two boys. 🥺
@@elleblue07 They continue to live with the memory of her loss.Special prayer for both 🙏🏽🥺
Yes.
The family doesn't understand what having depression is like. They kept saying she will never do that and leave us ..
I live in Mobile too!!! Theodore to be exact!! I can not remember the first name alias she used at the hotel but the last was "Stafford." I thought it was weird because one of my best friend's growing up had a similar first name and the last name Stafford. She had the same body type. She is like 5'10. Similar hair cut but her hair was blonde or dirty blonde. Her mom still lives in Mobile and lives in one of the if not then THE first house built in Theodore. Its off in the woods off Highway 90. Looks like the house off "The birds." Remake not Alfred Hitchcock's. We thought it was haunted. There were servant quarters, an old chicken coop and barn. Really narrow stairs going up to a second floor and all of it was orginal!! You walked in and felt like you were in one of those scary plantation houses off the movies. Original claw foot bathtub. Even glass doors knobs. No one even knows the house is where it is. Its VERY close to Theodore High school. We walked there. We I sat hidden I mean HiDDEN. You have to go down a long driveway that could easily get mistaken for the driveway of a business thats in front. But this house is behind it near the train tracks. Also very oddly and I have yet to figure out....whoever owned that house owned a fair or carnival. There are bumper cars, ferris wheel you name it behind it in the woods. Has to have been sitting back there for 30 years. There is even a disco ball. Vines and rust. Even the toys you won. Crazy. Yep.
Being born in 1981 this show was a MUST SEE every week. I just knew that eventually there would be a story that I information on. Never came to fruition but I do now recognize some of the character actors that are now famous in some of the stories.
There's something about the way Robert Stack told these stories that just gets into your mind. I love this show.
It's the way he talks to the audience; Robert Stack had a very clam and 'detached' tone of voice that nobody can ever match... That's why the show was such a HUGE success back in the 80's and 90's.
seems everyone is binge watching these. always loved this show my ex husband said i was addicted looks like my addiction has returned lol. thanks for uploading these !
This is my favorite show I loved when rob was hosting these
Thanks for bringing back the past to the present Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack my favorite TV 📺 program of the 80’s way to go 🤨🤨🤨👌👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍
These are such an awesome period piece of the '70s and 80s, especially being in crystal clear quality
88 is the first season
@Hana Yancey they weren't recorded in the 70's though..
@Hana Yancey yeah I can which is why you make no sense. What does "being in crystal clear quality" mean for them being in the 70s and 80s? Cryatal clear quality to a normal english speaker would refer to the picture qulity of the filming. Can you not speak english?
@Hana Yancey ya know, I apologize, I thought you were the original commentor! My mistake.
The audio recorded of the ship's noises is absolutely frightening.
Big time! I could hear men's voices, but I couldn't make out what it was they were saying.
It could've just been fabricated to add more creepiness to the show... If all those banging noises and moaning voices were really constantly happening down there in the ship's hull, many modern-day paranormal researchers (armed with all the latest technology) would've made a TON of actual recordings by now! 🤔
@OtomoTenzi I don't think so, jack. There are mysteries in this world that man will never understand with all his technology. Some things aren't meant to be understood.
I am so glad and happy that they brought all of these Robert Stack episodes back!!
Amen son.
As a kid I always loved the paranormal one's. Especially ghost. Still do
The guy standing behind that lady on the escalator..I would've pissed my pants. That was creepy as hell
The ghost with footprints, I would have stared at them with amazement for a few seconds. Then, I would have ran out of the room, if that were me.
Ones; would have run.
LoveEverton John That wasn’t really even that scary
Honestly they’re my least favorite because I know they are fake.
So happy these are the original with Robert stack, I l hate the ones with Dennis farina
Dennis Farina wasn't all that bad. And besides, Robert Stack died in 2003 so someone had to take over....I thought Dennis did a good job!
@@phayzyre1052 they changed the music too, some stupid rock music
@@azchanna I know and yes it was stupid. When A&E started showing reruns of the old "In Search Of" series back in the early 2000's they ditched the original intro music and replaced it with some silly synth-pop sounding crap that did it no justice whatsoever.
@@phayzyre1052 I'm inclined to go easy on ol' Dennis: as a real-life ex-cop, he actually narrated true crime stories pretty well. It was simply the creepier mysteries that escaped him, and the revised music & graphics (as you say) didn't help the show as a whole.
Dennis needed a co-host, really, and the show needed to keep the old music.
Nick Hentschel Dennis seemed to be a real down to earth kind of guy; almost like an old friend you could meet at the bar and have a few beers with. It’s a shame he’s no longer with us!
This was ALWAYS, ALWAYS my favorite segment of the Robert Stack Unsolved Mysteries, the supernatural.
I loved his voice but the ghost stories scare me to death especially the episode the other episode in trying to think of it it's called Mary something I think resurrection Mary now that was scary
Not mine. OMG, I ALWAYS hated thG part.. IDK why ...
I never watched these when they came out but I'd heard a lot about them. Robert Stack has a certain compelling and classy nature with his presence and narration. I can see how he is able to draw you into the show.
@@shalsmark piss off. He's a legend
Binge watching these having a full on Stack attack!
The same here! I've been under the weather for the last few days and have been watching USM and Barnaby Jones episodes non-stop, lol.
Would you like a Big Mac with that Stack attack lmao
I've been binge watching for 25 years
Urrrrr.
stack attack lmao
RIP. Robert Stack. The best host of am iconic program.
So STOKED these originals were finally uploaded to RUclips legit! I’ve yet to watch a crime show that sends a chill down my spine like this show did. Woo hoo!
I remember going to see the Queen Mary when I visited California in 2007. It really was quite the ship. One part I remember in particular was seeing the area where the pool was. Looking at this video, I learned more about it than what I did from when I actually set foot on it. It really is strange of the things that have happened.
"She had that Northern accent pretty bad." Love that! Lol, that's exactly how I feel when I hear one of those Yankee accents.
The two "friends" who sat in the backseat and watched that man sexually assault a teenager and then run off and harm her are partially involved as far as I'm concerned. Who just sits back and watches that?!
I was going to ask: at 16:38 whose 'two friends' it was.
Male buddies
Thanks for putting this up, Unsolved Mysteries is one of the best shows
The Queen Mary story always scared the crap out of me as a kid, especially the part @9:49. When I was little he looked so much scarier, but now, I see he's just normal looking.
I thought the lady at the start that looked like a mannequin was the creepiest
@@0532MOET The QueenMolly
OMG I’ve MISSED this show (with Robert Stack) SOOO much!! Thanks for this channel! 💕 I’m a kid again. 😜
akeames oh yeah you just said it we feel kids again watching Unsolved Mysteries way to go
I love tis RUclips channel. I have saved it to my favorites on my computer. Thank you to whoever put this channel on RUclips.
One of the best shows ever! I used to watch it with my mom, now watch it with my husband .
I really liked the Robert Stack version! It was so creepy I enjoyed it!
Me Too
love the healthy skepticism of the Queen Mary section.
Damn ghost did not even leave a tip....
An episode of Quantum Leap was filmed on this ship permanently moored at Long Beach, CA. A Poirot episode was filmed on the supposed Queen Mary, although I do not know if it was filmed on this ship or another one. The pool area is quite fascinating. I know it's haunted but I wonder why the pool is not filled with water? It is a nice example of 1930s Art Deco design.
@@goombabear state regulation and the fact the during the conversion from ocean liner to hotel and attraction they gutted a lot of the ship. As time went by they feared that the weight of the water would collapse the pool cause there were no longer proper support underneath it. The ship is in really bad shape and some fear that the long neglect is beyond repair. The state of the pool currently is sad.
Yes.
Unsolved mysteries was one of my favorite shows growing up as a child. Robert Stack made it seemed spooky rest in peace.
That music still makes my chest seize up. RIP Robert Stack.
"Double_D cups"
robert stack + retro unsolved mysteries music = great ASMR
Robert Stack and UM was really something special. I can't put my finger on it.
Ghost stories are my favorite part of unsolved mysteries
One of the best shows I ever watched. Made me love Wednesdays 800pm on channel 43 for me. I was home alone, scared watching this with every single light on in my mom's house 😆😄
Stack was the best!!
Yes the ghost stories always had me shook I can't watch unsolved mysteries ghost stories scary
I remember watching this as a kid in the 4th grade. After it aired, alot of kids would discuss the previous nights episode.
Same here, I was also about your age and grade level when these episodes first aired... Everyone in my class who watched it was SPOOKED. The whole 'creep factor' was definitely there! 😱
I've been on the Queen Mary and it is eerie
I have been watching since a kid and I’m 35yrs old 💕
The classic closing theme appears at last! Why does it leave me feeling so relaxed?
Maybe you’re brave. It seems creep everyone else out!
It sounds creepy but I like it 😅
16:49 She never returned, So he came out of the woods to his friends without her, and moved her later from the woods to outside his home? Id likes to know what his "pals" actually said happened.
You have to be a real genius to bury a body in your yard
“For every mystery, someone, somewhere knows the truth. Perhaps that someone is watching, perhaps it’s you.”
I love this show still to this day I got it uploaded on my firestick this is where I got the scoop on DB Cooper🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was also the episode where the Tallman House segment aired. It is not included in the FilmRise release.
Did people mature faster in the 80s? I'm shocked Gail Delano was only 34! She seemed like a classy nurturing middle-aged mom (like a modern 54), not my age lol
I'd rather been born an animal, not a human
Maybe you don’t look as young as you think you do.
I remember when 30 was called "middle age"
@@cruisepaige it's not just looks it's how she acted 55 or 60. Nowadays 34 still go clubbing and wear hoodies
Like larry merchant on HBO looked old forever. Bob barker looked old forever.
keep adding these. Although you can get em on amazon id rather watch them here
A 90s baby but still come back and watch this show till this day
I love vintage shows like this
the queen mary tape recorder scared me as a kid. i would snuggle up on the couch and be terrified to go to my bedroom. my dad would laugh and say it was just a tv show.
It could've just been fabricated to add more creepiness to the show... If all those noises and voices were really always constantly happening down there in the ship's hull, many modern-day paranormal researchers (with all the latest technology) would've made a TON of actual recordings by now! 🤔
@@OtomoTenzi oh for sure. alot of this show was exaggerated.
I was on the Queen Mary when it was docked in California several years after this episode. I can tell you for sure it was haunted and looking back it was a great experience to be on this behemoth.
OK, but did you see or hear anything unusual tho? 😳
@@OtomoTenzi not that i recall
So glad these are on you tube. I remember going to bed scarid because the music freaked me out lol
I have been binge watching every episode. I have been waiting for these but wow has times changed he pulled a shotgun out on cops and only got aggravated assault on a police officer and bail.
Not really, it's pretty much what you would get today for the most part if that happened.
They did fire two "warning shots". I think they had no choice but to wrestle with him and it just ended up that they were able to take him in without harming him
He would've been killed today trying that shit
Times haven't changed. In Texas, a White female cop, murdered an unarmed black man in his own house, after she performed a home invasion. She only received ten years, and even got a hug from the judge.
The more things change, the more they stay the same
@@bugg2032
Not necessarily Wiil. He is one of the boys. He was off his meds THAT is ALL
feel so sad for Gail that she could never get the help she needed to improve her health.
Northern New England is very desolate & depressing
Lol I don't. She left 2 kids behind because she could not find a man. That is selfish and cowardly
@Robert Courson it's not that simple with depression. It is complex and can be debilitating. Try and understand. Delano (if it is a suicide) didn't commit suicide because she couldn't get a man - depression can bring you to suicide even if one seemingly has no problems. That's how dangerous this mental illness is. I know, I suffer through it every day.
@@Justanopinionnooffense But you don't kill your self when you have 2 young kids. They have good medications for depression
@@robertcourson8002 She was already taking medication, as was stated in the reenactment. Medication for depression is merely a bandaid. It doesn't solve the problem. You sound somewhat ignorant on this subject.
Poor Roxanne had terrible friends! Who would see their friend fighting someone off and just sit there without helping?!
They Were Not Her Friends, They Would Have Tried To Stop Him From Attacking Her If They Were.
They were the guy’s friends. They taped and killed her
@@cruisepaige taped her up???
Those Howard Johnson detectives are just the best. When you need help, call your local Howard Johnson first!
So many memories of watching this with my parents late at night. Good times.
If that happened to me on an escalator... That’s the day I find a new job! Scared af
Oh my.
sigh. . . the title tune always brings back childhood memories of sneaking out of bed and creeping downstairs to catch the late night re-run every week, then being to creeped out to go back to sleep.
This show somehow perfectly nailed the balance of being both haunting and comforting.
I went to the Queen Mary ...... And the only supernatural experience I had was their OUT OF THIS WORLD SPLIT PEA SOUP... .AMAZIN!!!!!
This was filmed when the pool had actual water and was in use....now if you go it is bone dry.
Mike Manners Well that sucks :( How ya gonna see lil wet footprints with no water in there?! They should keep it full.
The ghosts probably pee'd in your soup.
😂😂😂😂😂
Yuk.
Ugh I didn't sleep for a week after seeing those darn watery ghost footprints from the Queen Mary as a kid!! I swear, this show caused me more anxiety growing up than anything else.
😂😂😂
Best series of the 80's 🌎✌️🌹
July 30 2024 i still. Watch this every night his voice only one ever to make me relax
Oh man... The ghost of the woman who was sitting at the table and not moving made my skin crawl... It would be awesome if you guys compiled all the ghost stories. They're so creepy!
If I were the restaurant employee who saw her I would have at least said something to her just to see if she'd react.
His damn voice and that lil music 🥶🥶can’t be these videos way bettter than that new shit
The original Unsolved Mysteries theme always gave me chills when I heard it, classic xD
My family loved this show. Wewatched every week. The music never creeped us oil. Rip Robert stack. And Joe farina.
This is scarier than modern horror movies.
thank you for not infecting the videos with ads🙏🏻
"Join me. Perhaps YOU...may be able to help solveee a mystery". Nobody delivers that line like Mr. Robert Stack did. R.I.P
That music spooked the hell out of me as a kid. Especially when a ghost story was about to play
poor gail she could of found someone and been happy she was on 34,but depression is horrible,bless her ; [
That was such a heartbreaking story. It's amazing how much older people looked/acted in the 80s too. Gail seemed like such a mature middle-aged mom, but today 34 is still pretty young
'Finding someone to take care of you isn't the answer.....no one else can complete you....that's your job...to feel whole.
@@staceykersting705 I don't agree a lot of people are low and when they find someone they love and who loves them ,that's all you need,i no what you are saying about you have to love yourself and you are right,but I feel that all that gail wanted was a nice man to share the rest of her life with,she was very lonely.
@@joannerutledge1377 IMHO...since she was so lost, she'd be cruisin' for disaster. The guys who pick up on the lonely vibe can spot their next 'victim' a mile away. Truly nice guys seem to be drawn toward more self-sufficient women. This has been my experience. Also plenty of info about domestic violence, etc. Hurt people hurt ppl. You can't use someone else as a crutch to prop up your shaky life, and u can't 'fix' anybody. All that only ends up in resentment.
@@joannerutledge1377 I always wondered if her long conversations with the guy john that she was having over the phone were real. I also wondered how she picked such a far away place to disappear to for the suicide.
I love both unsolved mystery’s to me there both fantastic I wish new season will come back
Netflix is supposed to produce a new series
Heck yes! Ikr Can't wait for the revival to hit DVD.
"Sheppard has recently been seen in El Paso, Texas. The authorities believe he may be living along the Mexican border."
28:20 "Update; London, Ontario, Canada."
Me thinks the authorities were searching the wrong border. 😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂
This happened in my town. The shitty thing is... none of is think it was him. He was covering for his brother. It's still pretty known around here.
@@mommabear5758 Word? Well that sounds interesting enough to wiki...
Evidence seems fairly damning against Joe.
@@mommabear5758 That's ridiculous considering it was Joe that tried to assault/kill the Monroe Cty deputy's that came to his door for questioning. My ex-stepdad and his extended family have lived in Tellico Plains for over 150 years, I'll have to ask him about this case since he was about 18 years old when it happened. Might've even known the vic/perp.
@@stupidkitty84 i didn't say the whole family wasn't crazy 😂 but it is a rumor that circulates there. My family has been there for about that long too.
It broke my heart that that woman killed herself. Terribly sad 😭
I agree 😭
I think someone killed her
@@KEICRUMBIE cause of death was overdose
same.
The only terribly sad thing around here is how easy people can accept things without any questioning whatsoever.
That case has more holes than a fishing net. I'm shocked to see all the comments of all these blind people just accepting the suicide story. SMH
Personally I think she was kidnapped and murdered.
Well...now that I think about it...that's terribly sad too, but...yeah. =(
9:50 exact same thing happened to me when I lived in an apartment complex in 2015, I was leaving out my apartment to run an errand about 6pm. As I'm walking down the long hallway , heading to the backdoor, and all of o sudden, I heard a man walking behind me and seen him briefly out the corner of my eyes, when I turned around and stepped to the side to tell him to go ahead of me, he wasn't there. I was really spooked. I remember it like it was yesterday.
the music makes this series!
That child laughing at the pool sounded evil! 👻
I would starting laughing with 😆 it I would've probably quit working there
Agree!
Not a pleasant laugh at all
It's the way he talks to the audience... Robert Stack had a very calm, soothing and 'detached' tone of voice that nobody on Earth could ever match.
Leonard Nimoy (In Search Of) was also a pretty good host too. He seemed very serious and knowledgeable on the subject matter, and his voice was always a welcome familiar one with his fans. At least he was NO stranger when it came to Sci-Fi movies or paranormal shows. Mr. Nimoy was a true master of his art. That's why the old creepy shows were such HUGE successes back in the 70's, 80's, and 90's. At least they were NOT a waste of your time. They had good 'rerun value', so to speak. Nowadays, whenever I hear the way people talk with all those ULTRA annoying-ass voices combined with the stupid modern music and crappy low production values; I just want to turn the goddamn TV off and throw it straight out the window!
What do you mean “ultra annoying-ass voices?”
Robert stack voice scared the hell out of me as kid
Roxanne...💔 So heartbreakingly terrible, Joe Shepard was a monster.
Oh Gail. How sad, but I am happy that the family found out what happened.
No thanks to Gail who purposely tried to leave them suffering for years wondering what happened to their mother
@@yashamaga13 She was deeply depressed. Depression is a mental ILLNESS!!! You are judging Gail on your standards of normality. That is unfair.

Such a sad outcome. Feel bad for her family. It's sad that she couldn't even leave a note or anything for her kids. RIP Gail, may you find peace.
@@antonioacevedo5200she didn’t disappear and left a note saying what she would do. She just disappeared.
