Cheryl Miller & Pam Jackson

In 1971, two teenage girls left their homes in Vermillion, South Dakota — and never returned.

For more than four decades, the disappearance of Cheryl Miller and Pam Jackson remained an unsolved mystery. No witnesses. No clear answers. Only questions that followed their families for a lifetime.

This episode explores the night they vanished, the years of uncertainty that followed, and how the truth was finally uncovered after 42 years.

Mary Ann Cotton was a woman surrounded by death.

Throughout the 19th century, those closest to her — husbands, children, and relatives — fell ill and died one by one. At first, their deaths were blamed on disease and misfortune. But over time, a disturbing pattern began to emerge.

In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we explore the life and crimes of Mary Ann Cotton, one of Britain’s earliest known female serial killers.

How did she evade suspicion for so long?

And how many lives did she really take?

This is a story of trust betrayed, quiet cruelty, and a darkness hidden behind respectability.

Chillingham Castle, located in the north of England, is widely considered one of the most haunted places in the country.

For centuries, this medieval fortress has been linked to violence, torture, and unexplained deaths. Visitors and staff have reported glowing apparitions, disembodied voices, moving objects, and an overwhelming sense of fear — particularly within the castle’s dungeons and sleeping chambers.

In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we explore the dark history of Chillingham Castle and the paranormal phenomena associated with it.

From the legend of the Radiant Boy to chilling overnight encounters, we examine why so many believe the spirits of the past still remain within these ancient walls.

Is Chillingham Castle truly haunted —

or are these experiences echoes of centuries of suffering?

In the waters of Lake Michigan lies one of North America’s most mysterious regions.

Planes have vanished without distress calls. Ships have disappeared without a trace. Compasses have failed. Time itself seems to behave strangely.

In this episode of Mysteries of the World, we explore the legend of the Michigan Triangle — a stretch of water linked to unexplained disappearances, aviation incidents, and eerie reports spanning more than a century.

Is it natural forces at work? Human error? Or something far more unsettling?
