Hey guys,

What is the creepiest photo of a person you ever saw on the show? For me, it's Dennis and Marylin Depue. :eek:

That's a good one.

For me, it's Elizabeth Campbell's purse. I'm not kidding, but that picture scared the ever loving crap out of me.

Also, one of the pictures of Judith Hymes scared me pretty bad as a kid...

Hey guys,

What is the creepiest photo of a person you ever saw on the show? For me, it's Dennis and Marylin Depue. :eek:
Is this case available on amazon? If so what season/episode is it? Thanks

So many to choose from:

Terri Hoffman
Wadada's deformed hand sketch
Elena Souza
Eduwigis Escalante (My jaw still drops when they list her age as 51, ditto to Lupita/Emma Figueroa being 41.)
The burned-out remains of Kristi Krebs' car
Selena Edon's accident scene photos
Joe Welden Smith


Also, I find pictures of victims taken just before their death to be very haunting. The man calling himself Tom Hughes had his picture taken just hours before he had his fatal heart attack. Rachael Runyan had a family portrait (not shown in segment, but available online) taken the day before her abduction. The segment also showed a pic of her wearing the same dress she was wearing the day she vanished and added that she might be wearing it in the alleged snuff movie. Stuff like that just gives me chills.

I forget the name of the victim, but it involved a motorcycle death and the sketch of the suspect with the craziest eyes and brows.

I'll throw these in the maybe pile? I know Tina Resch has been written off. But I struggle with how she pulled this off in front of two newspaper reporters, her foster parents and a Child Services caseworker...

http://jamesaconrad.com/images-Tina/Tina-Resch-frame25-793x575.jpg

The above photo was the one printed in the Columbus Dispatch in 1984. This second rare photo shows two phones flying across Tina and towards Lee Arnold, who was a child services caseworker. (Apparently the reason for the second phone was because the foster parents had bought a cheaper one because their regular one was malfunctioning.)

Also, one of the pictures of Judith Hymes scared me pretty bad as a kid...

I only remember one photo they used of Judith. Were there others?

On a sidenote, it's stunning to me that she was only 22. That picture made her look so much older.

This photo of James Donald King always freaked me out all blown up on the TV with that music rolling.

Any photo of a Homicide Victim or Missing Person that's really bad in quality creeps me out for some reason.

Seeing as 95% of Cases profiled were pre Digital Cameras this was quite common.

That's a good one.

For me, it's Elizabeth Campbell's purse. I'm not kidding, but that picture scared the ever loving crap out of me.

Also, one of the pictures of Judith Hymes scared me pretty bad as a kid...

Can't say a purse ever creeped me out...but I'm guessing it was the age-progression photo of her? (Judith)

Is this case available on amazon? If so what season/episode is it? Thanks

Season 3, episode 20.

Also, the movie "Jeepers Creepers" (released in 2001) has almost certainly used the first several minutes of that segment as inspiration. (If not a major element of the plot)

http://wickedhorror.com/features/dennis-depue-the-real-life-killer-that-inspired-jeepers-creepers/

For some reason, the second sketch of the Canadian Hitchhiker that Philip Fraser picked up still gives me the willies.

The photo of the 1980 Donald Eugene Webb always creeped me out.

The age progression one? No so much. That one has kind of a "Yo, Adrian!" look to it.

His remains were found in June of last year, his wife hid him after he died from a series of strokes in 1999.

The "alien" creature featured in the Guardian UFO video.

I know it's a hoax, but it still creeps me out to this day.

I was thinking that was from UM! I was like "Uhhh....I don't remember this segment!"

https://unsolved.com/wp-content/uploads/existing/mur_terri_mcclure3.jpg

https://unsolved.com/wp-content/uploads/existing/mur_terri_mcclure3.jpg

I've always wondered about Tim McClure, especially his bewilderment about being considered a suspect in his mother's death and his feelings about the lie detector test and feeling like a victim.

Every time I see that segment, I think of Lennie Briscoe..."This is no interrogation. When we interrogate you, believe me you'll know it."

Oh, s**t.

I've forgotten the WORST picture UM ever showed. THE WORST.

Jasper Watkins, aka Steamer Trunk John Doe. They showed his post-mortum picture in order to ID him. It worked. And that picture scarred me for life.

It's this picture. Not scary now, but it really freaked me out as a kid. I can't tell you why.

The pic of the Son of Sam killer in the cheep straight wig...I still can't watch that without feeling my skin crawl.

Holy ****, good one.

I just watched this segment the other day and it's still creepy. If I saw that picture without seeing the UM segment, I would think he was a juggalo.

That blind river suspect pic is pretty spooky

https://unsolved.com/wp-content/uploads/existing/mur_terri_mcclure3.jpg

I'm not sold one way or the other on his guilt or innocence. I do know he could win the title of Most Ugly Man in America for that picture.

This image was the most disturbing ever on UM for all the youngsters out there that happened to watch the original airing of this case. Kept me awake for a long time. The Trench Coat Robbershttps://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/unsolvedmysteries/images/6/61/Robber/revision/latest?cb=20170716144814

It's the background music. Like I said in a previous post, if you played some of that creepy UM background music to a picture of puppies, you're still going to feel a little uneasy.

What case is this from?

Bill Henderson killer. Dude was probably a Johnny Rotten fan.

Jusr adding an actual picture of him for comparison

The B&W mugshot of Paul Stamper

Henry Plummer, the outlaw sheriff of Bannock, Montana

John Saint Helen's post mortem photograph.

About 90 percent of all police sketches of suspects featured on UM, especially the two male suspects in the Stanley Gryziec case.

Not a bad likeness-he probably put some weight on & lost the punk hair in the intervening years, he was captured 15 years later but the chin, mouth, nose & ears are pretty much spot on.

I actually recall watching that segment in 1992. I remember watching the Clifford Sherwood segment as well. It may have been around the same time. For some reason the old man pic of Tex Sherwood that they showed creeped me out. I can’t find it online anywhere. I also can’t find the segment on RS amazon.

When Robert Stack says "Janice was starting to become a suspect in her own daughter's disappearance" (although as it turns out it was Angela and Eric Mize) gave me the chills when I saw it.

http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e27/gonejakid/0244-Owen.jpg

Great thread. Something about how this shows zooms up in close to pictures slowly with that dark synth line and Robert Stack's voice is usually disturbing.

Then there's one that I can't find that shares similarities with the Depue's photo. It's the one of Jerry and Brenda Bowen on where he has a suit on.

This one is in the same sequence of photos of the one I mentioned above that I can't find but it has the same effect – scary murderer.

I am amazed at how utterly crappy yet chillingly accurate this particular composite sketch was to the actual perpetrator.

No matter what you think of the Cindy James case, I still find these notes disturbing.

I thought there was a picture of him as an elderly man that they showed with that creepy dark UM desktop design in the background.

Yep! Thank you, that's the one I was thinking of. I didn't think it was a particularly creepy picture, the background music when showing it was kind of eerie.

He definitely belongs in the Most Punchable Hall of Fame.

As a ten year old, I briefly tried to quit watching UM because of the nightmares I had following the Fish Springs, Nevada haunted house segment (which aired immediately after the Joe Smith segment so I was already a little on edge.)

This photo would not get out of my head...

I'm surprised nobody mentioned the reconstructed skull of Gabby's shooting victim.

This is the one I had in my head immediately, but couldn't for the life of me remember the case. Can you remind me, so I can have some nightmares tonight? :lol:

Idk why but that scared me as a kid. And yes the music they played as they showed the pic did not help. I was already on edge though.

The Blind River rest stop killer always takes the cake for me. The music makes it that much more creepy. Others ...
* Jasper Watkins
* Laura Gomez (very beautiful girl but that picture freaked me out for whatever reason)
* The Ohio prostitute murder victims
* Tom Dixon
* Judy Hymes. I always thought she bore a strong resemblance to Mary Tyler Moore.

Don Hoffman's video at the beginning of this segment is creepy as hell too!

There was a segment one time about two young men, one black and one white, that robbed a post office and then drove the postal worker out to the middle of nowhere and then just left her there. At the end of the segment, they showed artists' reconstructions of the two culprits.

The black man's portrait was one of the creepiest photos I've ever seen.

I just found my copy of the NBC airing of the 1/24/90 episode which featured a repeat of the Tara Calico/Michael Henley segment with a missing child roll call tacked on at the end. The first of the missing children profiled was seven-year-old Leticia Hernandez who went missing from her Oceanside, CA apartment complex on December 16, 1989. She was reportedly seen multiple times with her abductors, described as a white male and female with "light-colored hair". The result was these two composites. If they hadn't mentioned that the first one was a male, I'd have thought it was two women.

Sadly, Leticia's remains were found in 1991 and her murder remains unsolved.

Not sure whether to laugh or be scared of this ridiculous composite.

There was an a,ternate composite which I only saw on the Farina version of the bill Henderson segment that was super eerie.

Naturally the second I 70 killer sketch
