UNEXPLAINED: The Mary Celeste

Join Josh as he sails into one of history’s most haunting maritime mysteries—the disappearance of the crew of the Mary Celeste. In December of 1872, this seaworthy ship was discovered drifting in the Atlantic, her cargo intact, her provisions untouched, and yet every soul on board had vanished without a trace. The captain, his family, and the entire crew were gone, leaving behind only a ghostly vessel and a trail of unanswered questions.

Was it a catastrophic accident, a case of human treachery, or something far stranger—sea monsters, curses, or even extraterrestrial intervention? Through court hearings, eyewitness accounts, and the enduring legends that have grown around the ship, Josh explores the mystery, fear, and speculation that still grip imaginations more than a century later.

UNEXPLAINED: The Beast of Gévaudan

Join Josh as he descends into one of history’s most chilling mysteries—the reign of the Beast of Gévaudan. Between 1764 and 1767, something stalked the forests of rural France, slaughtering villagers with a savagery unlike any known predator. Entire communities lived in terror as the killings mounted, while soldiers, hunters, and even the King’s men failed to stop it.

Was this a monstrous wolf, a cursed hybrid, or a nightmare born from folklore itself? Through eyewitness accounts, royal hunts, and the whispers of werewolves, Josh uncovers the fear, superstition, and unanswered questions that still haunt this tale more than two centuries later.

UNEXPLAINED: The Project Stargate

Join Trevor as he delves into one of the most intriguing government programs ever declassified—Project Stargate. Once hidden deep within the files of the CIA, this top-secret initiative explored the possibility of psychic phenomena, from remote viewing to telepathy, as tools of intelligence gathering. Could the mind itself be a weapon?

From Cold War espionage to astonishing first-hand accounts by military-trained psychics, Josh uncovers the strange history, controversial experiments, and lingering questions surrounding this decades-long program. Was Project Stargate a groundbreaking leap into human potential—or a costly detour into pseudoscience?

UNEXPLAINED: The Reincarnation Stories

Join Josh as he explores one of the strangest mysteries of the human experience: reincarnation. From a boy who recalled vivid details of being a WWII pilot, to a girl convinced she was Anne Frank, to a woman who believed she once walked among pharaohs in ancient Egypt—these are stories that blur the line between life, death, and something beyond.

Alongside famous cases, Josh dives into lesser-known tales and the groundbreaking work of Dr. Ian Stevenson, who spent decades collecting thousands of eerily specific memories from children around the world. Could these accounts be proof that our souls don’t just vanish—but return, again and again?

With ghostly legends, weathered records, and unsettling theories that range from the violent to the otherworldly, this episode explores a mystery suspended in time. Was it the sea? Madness? Or something older, watching from the cliffs?
