WatchMojo.com is a YouTube channel that's been ranking pop culture subjects for years. They mostly feature top ten videos. However, yesterday they released their picks for the 30 most frightening Unsolved Mysteries segments, picked from the entire history of the show. Here is the link if anyone is interested in watching....

Wouldn't put the Tatum House on there. If there was a ghost, it just seems like a ghost pulling harmless jokes. Just having some fun, could be annoying, but not creepy.

I'd put the Michaela Garecht case on here. That composite terrified me for years.

Thank you for sharing this. Cool idea for them to do. But I hate that they included the Dennis farina version. That cheesey rock music they layered behind still angers me.

My personal scariest that they included:
The CRV Killer segment with the "he just looked at me...and kept driving" moment
Angela Hammond's kidnapping
OMAR fire video (I was 12, yes it scared the crap out of me even though it's laughable now)
Circleville voice over
The Son of Sam asking "what took you so long?"

My personal scariest moments I would've included:
Chaim Weiss, when the killer opens someone else's room
Thelma & Harold Swain the pov shot of the killer walking around the church always scared me
Jeffrey McDonald segment

I'd rate the Harper's Ferry remains as #1 scariest. Finding the old man dead in a steamer trunk, as well as the morgue photo and computerized composite. I still can't watch it without covering my face.

PS: Please, for the love of God, don't post any media on that story. My eyes, mind and heart can't take it.

There's a similar moment for me with the deveroux/johnston segment with the killer walking up to Johnston's car and UM plays some of the same twisted metal type music.

I don't think these are featured in the top 30, but I go back to my childhood (6 years old). and recall the Kevin Hughes segment whenever someone jiggles the doorknob on them right before they leave. Also in the same episode was "Carol" when she looks in the rearview mirror and sees the truck tailgating her. that segment scared me.

the what took you so long line LOL. what a sick puppy. pun intended.

I generally associate the term "WatchMojo" with awful shovelcontent produced by a combination of unqualified humans and low quality computer AI that gets recommended to you by YouTube for some unknown reason.

Completely agree - I have no idea why they keep choosing Shane and Sally for their 'scariest UM case'. I like the segment (and obviously sympathize with everyone involved) but it's not one that has stayed with me over the years. Dick Hansen should have at least been in the top 10.

It was a lot creepier when Robert Stack was introducing the mysteries! Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we’re looking at chilling episodes of “Unsolved Mysteries” from the original run all the way through the Netflix revival. Our countdown includes mysteries such as spirits at the Comedy Store, the Circleville letters, Resurrection Mary and more! Which “Unsolved Mysteries” segment disturbed you to your core?

I forgot about one segment, it was actually a lost loves segment where a guy goes into a bar and kills his wife who was tending bar. UM did a weird POV angle with the shot gun.

another segment that bothered me was the Ohio Trucker Serial Killer. that segment bothered me even as an adult. I used to drive from Cincinnati to Columbus once every couple of weeks and I would think about this segment.

My best friend lives outside Columbus and whenever I go visit her (it's a 3 hour drive for me) I always pass through Licking County on the way. This UM segment starts with a discovery of one of the victims in Licking County. Always pops in my head as a landmark.

UM is so engraved in my brain that I always do this if I'm in a certain city. For instance, I went to a wedding in Miami several years ago. The night before the wedding, my friends and I had dinner at a steak house in Coral Gables. For most of the car ride, I couldn't help but look out the window and think about how this is where Judith Hyams lived back in the day. Two days later, we got to go on a tour of the Everglades...which of course made me think of Little Ms. Panasoffkee. The UM connections never stop wherever I go.

well I have the same travel habits. this summer I am hoping to spend a night in Marfa. I think location wise the Ohio serial killer segment affected me the most. I lived there for about 4 years and drove the interstates a lot for work. I was an AF recruiter and I would have to often drive from Cincinnati to the Military Entrance Processing Station in Columbus. I also had to drive to Dayton a lot because that was the closest AF base. The Buckskin Jane Doe, Marcia King, was found near there so I would often wonder if her murder would ever be solved, unfortunately it has not been solved, but she has been ID'd as of 2018. on an annual summer trip to Gettysburg I would pass the "truckomat" that they show in the segment. That is in Licking county, as you mentioned, on IH 70 just east of Columbus. the neon sign looked the same as it did in the segment the last time I drove by it. that would be more than 10 years ago now. But every time I drove between Columbus and Cincinnati I would wonder what was going on in those trucks parked on the side of the road. some of them would just park on the sides of exit ramps at night/early in the morning.
