On June 26th, 2007, 25-year-old Sara Hulbert was found murdered at a truck stop in Nashville, Tennessee.

Her body had been placed deliberately, suggesting she had been killed elsewhere and then dumped at the scene.

As investigators dug deeper, disturbing patterns began to emerge — linking her case to multiple other murders across different states.

What initially appeared to be a single crime soon revealed something far more terrifying.

In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we explore the murder of Sara Hulbert and the investigation that led to the capture of a serial killer operating along America’s highways.

On May 20th, 2001, 20-year-old Carrie Nelson was found brutally murdered inside a visitor centre at Blue Mounds State Park in Minnesota.

The building had been turned upside down. Money was missing. And it quickly became clear that she had interrupted a robbery.

Despite multiple clues — fingerprints, DNA, and witness statements — the case remained unsolved for years.

It wasn’t until advances in forensic technology revealed a crucial connection that investigators were finally able to identify a suspect.

In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we examine the murder of Carrie Nelson — a case of violence, missed leads, and the long road to justice.

In the forests of Vermont lies a place known as the Bennington Triangle — an area often compared to the Bermuda Triangle.

Between the 1940s and 1950s, several people vanished without a trace. A guide who knew the land better than anyone. A young student in a red jacket. A man who disappeared from a moving bus. Even an eight-year-old boy.

No bodies. No answers.

In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we explore the disappearances, the legends, and the theories surrounding one of America’s most mysterious locations.

Was it the wilderness? A serial killer?

Or something far more unexplained?

In 1989, three-month-old Ryan Stallings was rushed to hospital with symptoms doctors believed could only mean one thing — antifreeze poisoning.

The evidence appeared overwhelming. Laboratory tests detected ethylene glycol in his blood, and investigators soon began to suspect the unthinkable: that Ryan’s own mother, Patricia Stallings, had poisoned him.

When Ryan later died, Patricia was charged with his murder.

But the case would take a shocking turn when new medical findings revealed a rare genetic disease that mimicked antifreeze poisoning almost perfectly.

In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we examine the tragic case of Patricia Stallings — a story of medical misdiagnosis, flawed forensic evidence, and a mother accused of killing her own child.

In July 1974, the body of an unidentified woman was found at Race Point Dunes in Provincetown, Massachusetts. She had been brutally murdered. Her hands were removed. Several of her teeth were missing.

She became known as the Lady of the Dunes.

In this episode, we examine the crime scene, the failed attempts to identify her through dental records and facial reconstruction, and the many theories surrounding the case — from serial killers to organised crime, and the modern use of forensic genealogy.

Nearly fifty years later, her identity remains unknown.

Who was she?

And who killed her?

On June 4, 2010, seven-year-old Kyron Horman walked into Skyline Elementary School in Portland, Oregon — and was never seen again.

What should have been an ordinary school day turned into one of America’s most haunting unsolved mysteries.

With hundreds of visitors present for a school science fair, no sign-in logs, and conflicting accounts of what happened that morning, investigators were left with more questions than answers.

Did Kyron wander away from school grounds?

Was he abducted in plain sight?

Or was someone close to him responsible?

In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we examine the timeline, the suspicion surrounding those closest to Kyron, and why — more than a decade later — this case remains unsolved.

A story of disappearance, suspicion, and a search that never truly ended.

In 1970, Harvey and Jeanette Crewe disappeared from their rural farm in Pukekawa, New Zealand.

Their home was left in disarray. Blood stained the living room floor. Their 18-month-old daughter was found alive — but severely dehydrated.

Weeks later, both Harvey and Jeanette were discovered in the Waikato River. They had been shot at close range and bound with copper wire.

A local man was convicted.

Then pardoned.

After it was revealed that key evidence had been planted by police.

More than fifty years later, no one has been held accountable.

Who killed Harvey and Jeanette Crewe?

And how did a wrongful conviction reshape one of New Zealand’s most controversial cases?

This is an unsolved mystery.

Episode 8 — The Crescent Hotel

In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we travel to some of the most haunted locations across the world.

We begin at St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 in New Orleans, where centuries of death, Voodoo legends, and restless spirits still linger among the tombs. From the ghost of Marie Laveau to wandering souls who never found peace, this cemetery is known as the City of the Dead for a reason.

We then move north to Scotland and The Drovers Inn, a historic inn where frozen spirits, a drowned child, and unexplained apparitions continue to disturb guests centuries later.

Finally, we end in England at Shrewsbury Prison, a place marked by executions, suffering, and despair. Today, visitors report screams in the corridors, shadow figures, and an overwhelming sense of dread that refuses to fade.

Three places. Three dark histories.

And countless spirits that may never have left.
