In this spine-chilling episode, we zoom into the mysterious skies of Washington D.C. during the eerie summer of 1952, when the night was anything but quiet. Known as the "Invasion of Washington," this supernatural spectacle began when air traffic controllers at Washington National Airport, including the sharp-eyed Edward Nugent and his boss Harry Barnes, spotted baffling blips on their radars. These weren't your ordinary planes; they zipped and zoomed with bewildering speed and agility, performing jaw-dropping aerial feats that left even seasoned pilots scratching their heads. As the plot thickened and the skies buzzed with unexplained activity, the military scrambled fighter jets to chase down these enigmatic visitors. Yet, every attempt to catch these fleeting shadows proved futile, with the UFOs darting away as if playing a cosmic game of tag. Multiple radar confirmations from sources like Andrews Air Force Base lent a spooky seriousness to the sightings, turning skeptical whispers into alarmed conversations. Strap in and hold onto your hats as we unravel the tangled tale of the 1952 Washington D.C. UFO sightings, a night that turned the capital into a stage for one of the most mystifying aerial dramas in history. Visit us at Itsmysteryinc.com Join Unmasked at Patreon.com/itsmysteryinc

60: Encounters Over the Capitol: The UFO Frenzy of '52

Jinkies! In this episode, we plunge into the deep, mysterious waters off Yonaguni Island, Japan, where something utterly baffling rests beneath the waves. Imagine the shock of diver Kihachiro Aratake in 1986, when, instead of the usual hammerhead sharks, he discovered a colossal structure lurking on the ocean floor. With its precise, sharp angles and enormous, staircase-like formations, this undersea marvel stretches 165 feet long and towers 65 feet wide, much like a submerged pyramid crafted from sandstone and shale. Is this curious find a trick of nature or a relic from a lost civilization? Enter Masaaki Kimura, a researcher who argues that we might be gazing at remnants of the legendary continent of Mu, hinting at a society that might have rivaled the ancients of Egypt and Maya in its heyday. With eerie statues, animal carvings, and clear signs of advanced engineering like steps and channels, the monument poses a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside the sea. Could this be Japan's own Atlantis, claimed by the ocean's depths in a forgotten disaster? Dive into this episode as we sift through myths and scientific insights to unravel the enigmatic secrets of the Yonaguni Monument.

58: Vanished Below: The Mystery of the Shanghai Tunnels

Gee whiz gang, it was a chilling January morning in 1947 when Betty Bersinger, strolling through Leimert Park with her daughter, made a ghastly discovery that looked straight out of a detective novel. At first glance, what she mistook for a discarded mannequin turned out to be the halved body of a woman, posed with eerie precision. This wasn't just any crime scene; it was the gruesome beginning of the mystery surrounding Elizabeth Short, also known as the Black Dahlia. Her body, drained of all blood and sliced with surgical care, laid bare the dark underbelly of Los Angeles. As the fog of intrigue thickened, Elizabeth's past painted a portrait of a young woman caught in the winds of misfortune and mystery. Moving from Boston to California for a fresh start and better health, Elizabeth's life was a series of fleeting connections and lost dreams, including a brief engagement shattered by wartime tragedy. The last to see her alive was a man entangled in his own contradictions, leaving a trail of questions that led to a dead end at the Biltmore Hotel. Despite the fervor of investigations and over 150 suspects, the chilling tale of the Black Dahlia remains one of the most captivating unsolved mysteries, etched forever in the annals of American crime stories.
