20 is too many to list, I'll go for 15. Yesterday I had all my cases listed up, picked up the better ones. First there was 42, then narrowed that down to 19 and I got it down to my top 9. The 10th was really hard to choose. And some cases are my favs but I've seen them alot so I might prefer others, anyways here's my fav 15.

Zodiac/Unabomber
East Area Rapist
Cynthia Anderson
Son of Sam (1 and 2)
Coral Polge-Psychic Artist

Of course, there's more but to list them all here would take forever!

Ragged Mile · 02-06-2007, 10:40 PM

OK I can't name 20 BUT ... does anyone remember the episode with a ship that was haunted? Crew members would have strange sightings of people ... Investigators left a tape recorder in the bowels of the ship in the middle of the night and recorded some bizarre sounds that should not have happened. My hairs stood up on end!

Yes.....I think you're referring to the Queen Mary if I'm not mistaken. With the footprints at the pool and the old woman?

LooksLikeCRicci · 02-07-2007, 09:06 PM

Don't forget the little children laughing while the footprints were being made at the pool. I don't like ghost stories, normally, but this one made me shiver....
