Part 1 of 2 A FAMILIES SILENCE : The Burari Deaths | True Scary Stories

When 11 members of a Delhi family are found dead under bizarre circumstances, investigators uncover eerie rituals and a series of cryptic diaries. This Obscurata episode dives into the mysterious 2018 Burari deaths of the Chundawat family – exploring the chilling discovery of their bodies, the family’s seemingly ordinary life in Burari, and the haunting clues that blurred the line between a shared psychosis and the supernatural. Beginning at a disturbing midpoint and unfolding with cinematic detail, we follow the step-by-step investigation: the morning the bodies were discovered, the unsettling notes about a banyan-tree ritual, and one man’s claims of otherworldly guidance. In the aftermath, we examine how a shocked public, frenzied media, and local superstitions turned the Chundawats’ house into a ghostly legend that still lingers.

Part 2 of 2 PROPHETIC DREAMS : The Vanishing of Cindy Anderson | True Scary Stories

In the summer of 1981, 20-year-old Cindy Anderson vanished without a trace from her Toledo law office. No witnesses. No struggle. Just a locked door, a ringing phone, and a deepening mystery.


What followed was one of Ohio’s most unsettling cold cases — a story tangled in prophetic nightmares, shadowy suspects, and the lingering question: did Cindy see it coming?.

Part 2 of 2 BENEATH THE BLUE | Lake Tahoe’s Eerie Legends & Unsolved Mysteries | Paranormal, True Crime, Folklore, Cryptids

It’s nearly 2 a.m. on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe. Inside the Sahara Tahoe casino, slot machines still jingle for a few lingering gamblers. But the night nurse, Donna Lass, is gone. Her logbook open mid-sentence, and the only clue is a mysterious phone call claiming she had a “family emergency.” No such emergency existed. Donna Lass vanished without a trace—and Lake Tahoe stirred once more with whispers of something sinister beneath its surface.

GHOST IN THE MACHINE: The Dodleston Messages | True Scary Stories

In the quiet English village of Dodleston, a borrowed school computer became the epicenter of one of the strangest documented mysteries of the 1980s. Without internet or any external connection, messages began appearing—written in archaic English, claiming to be from a man living in the year 1546. The bizarre files described the house in perfect detail and responded to questions typed by the owners. Was it an elaborate hoax… or something far stranger? This is the true story of the Dodleston Messages—one of the eeriest cases of electronic communication ever recorded.

ANGELS OF DEATH: The Poison Pact of Nagyrév | True Scary Stories

In 1929, a remote Hungarian village revealed one of the most chilling murder conspiracies in modern history. Dozens of women, led by a pipe-smoking midwife known as “Auntie Suzy,” quietly poisoned their husbands, children, and in-laws over two decades—often with the help of flypaper. The Angel Makers of Nagyrév justified their crimes as mercy… or liberation. But what started as whispers between neighbors turned into mass graves, arsenic-laced meals, and a legacy of death that shocked the world. This is the true story of how a quiet village became known as The Murder District.

THE SWEET SMELL OF FEAR: The Mad Gasser of Mattoon | America’s Phantom Anesthetist

In the sweltering summer of 1944, residents of a small Illinois town awoke to a strange sweet smell—and paralyzed limbs. As more victims reported choking fumes and prowlers, fear swept through Mattoon. Was it mass hysteria, a chemical attack, or something stranger? This is the story of the Mad Gasser: a faceless phantom who stalked a town at night, left no trace, and vanished into legend—leaving only questions in his wake.

HEX AND POWER: The Witch Queens of Modern Romania | Occult Protest and Digital Spells

In post-communist Romania, witchcraft didn’t vanish—it went viral. From riverbank hexes on corrupt politicians to livestreamed love spells for clients in Dubai, Romania’s witches have become spiritual entrepreneurs, political provocateurs, and global influencers. But beneath the incense and smartphone screens lies a deeper story: one rooted in ancient folk magic, persecution, power, and survival. This is the tale of the modern vrajitoare—the witches who now issue receipts and wield curses.

THE PACT: The Haunting Call on La Mano Peluda | Mexico’s Demonic Radio Confession | True Scary Stories

In 2002, a trembling caller phoned into La Mano Peluda, Mexico’s legendary late-night paranormal show, and confessed to a pact with the devil. He spoke of ritual murder, demonic torment, and a mysterious ring of power – all broadcast live on air. But what happened after the call made it infamous. A TV reunion years later, strange deaths, and chilling occult symbols have turned the tale of Josué Velázquez into one of Mexico’s most enduring urban legends. Was it a hoax? Or a real broadcast from the edge of damnation?

STORMWALKER: The Gray Man of Pawleys Island | Coastal Hauntings | True Paranormal Stories

On the windswept dunes of South Carolina’s Pawleys Island, a spectral figure has appeared for over a century – a man in gray who walks the shore just before deadly hurricanes strike. Locals swear by his warnings. Homes spared by the storm. Lives saved. But who is he? In this episode of Obscurata, we wade through witness reports, folklore, and chilling coincidences to uncover the legend of the Gray Man. Was he a grief-stricken lover? A Civil War spirit? Or something older – a guardian bound to the coastline by a pact forgotten in time? What we do know is this: when the Gray Man appears, the storm is coming.

Part 2 of 2 RITUAL ON MEON HILL | The Witchcraft Murder of Charles Walton (1945) | Unsolved Mystery, True Crime, Paranormal, Folklore

On Valentine’s Day, 1945, the peaceful village of Lower Quinton in Warwickshire was shaken by one of Britain’s most brutal and mysterious murders. Charles Walton, a 74-year-old farm labourer, was found gruesomely slain near Meon Hill—his body pinned to the ground with a pitchfork, his throat slashed by his own billhook. What at first seemed like a horrific act of violence soon spiralled into something stranger. With ritualistic overtones, missing charms, and a long history of folklore surrounding Meon Hill, whispers of witchcraft emerged almost immediately. Scotland Yard’s top detectives were baffled. Was this a crime of superstition and fear—a modern-day witch killing? Or something more calculated and mundane disguised in ritual?.

Obscurata | True Scary, Paranormal, Ghost, Supernatural & Mysterious Stories
Part 1 of 2 RITUAL ON MEON HILL | The Witchcraft Murder of Charles Walton (1945) | Unsolved Mystery, True Crime, Paranormal, Folklore

On Valentine’s Day, 1945, the peaceful village of Lower Quinton in Warwickshire was shaken by one of Britain’s most brutal and mysterious murders. Charles Walton, a 74-year-old farm labourer, was found gruesomely slain near Meon Hill—his body pinned to the ground with a pitchfork, his throat slashed by his own billhook. What at first seemed like a horrific act of violence soon spiralled into something stranger. With ritualistic overtones, missing charms, and a long history of folklore surrounding Meon Hill, whispers of witchcraft emerged almost immediately. Scotland Yard’s top detectives were baffled. Was this a crime of superstition and fear—a modern-day witch killing? Or something more calculated and mundane disguised in ritual?.

Obscurata | True Scary, Paranormal, Ghost, Supernatural & Mysterious Stories
THE MADNESS IN THE MIRROR : The Eriksson Twins & the M6 Motorway Incident | Unsolved Dark Mysteries

Two sisters, identical in every way, walk into traffic on one of the UK’s busiest motorways. Cameras capture the horror: one is struck by a lorry, the other hit head-on by a car. Moments later, one of them rises — wild-eyed, screaming of stolen organs and secret threats. And that was only the beginning. This is the story of Ursula and Sabina Eriksson, whose bizarre and violent descent unfolded on the M6 and culminated in a senseless killing. Was it madness, shared psychosis, or something far stranger? From Sweden to Stoke-on-Trent, the Eriksson twins left behind a trail of mystery, tragedy, and one of the most unsettling true events ever captured on film.
