Unsolved Mysteries That Will Keep You Up at Night -P(II)
Dive into a chilling collection of eerie tales, from the haunting time slip experienced by two schoolteachers at Versailles to the terrifying disappearance of Emma Fillipoff. Each story unveils the dark mysteries lurking just beyond our understanding, reminding us that some truths are far scarier than fiction.

*A Slip in Time: The Terrifying Tale of Anne Mobberly and Eleanor Jordane*
In 1901, two English schoolteachers, Anne Mobberly and Eleanor Jordane, took a holiday trip to France, a getaway that would forever haunt them. They decided to visit the grand Palace of Versailles, an innocent trip that took a horrifying turn. As they strolled through the palace grounds, time itself seemed to unravel around them.
The two women claimed they were transported back to the year 1792. In this twisted echo of the past, they found themselves on the *Petite Trianon*, a manor house given to Queen Marie Antoinette. The world around them was eerily alive—people in outdated 18th-century clothing roamed the grounds, the gardens bloomed in ways that no longer existed, and the very air felt different. But what terrified them most was a chilling encounter: there, sitting quietly in the garden, was none other than Marie Antoinette herself.
The queen turned her head and locked eyes with them, but said nothing. The cold, penetrating gaze was not that of a living person but more like a spirit—trapped between worlds, aware of their intrusion but unable to stop it.
Years passed before the teachers realized just how bizarre that day had been. Upon their return to Versailles and after seeing historic paintings, they were struck by the truth: the palace they visited wasn't from 1901. No, they had walked through pathways that hadn’t existed in over a century. Skeptics argued it was some elaborate costume party, yet no historical record of such an event could be found.
Was it a shared delusion, or had they slipped into a ghostly portal, doomed to witness the final days of Marie Antoinette’s life? Either way, the truth remains terrifyingly elusive.
*The Mount St. Helens Creatures: A Nightmare in the Wilderness*
1924. Deep in the wilderness near Mount St. Helens, a group of prospectors experienced something horrifying, something that would leave them scarred forever. Fred Beck and his crew had been surveying the Ape Canyon region, but strange things started happening. Gigantic footprints, too large for any man, appeared outside their cabin each night. Laughter turned to dread as the footprints multiplied, always there, watching.
One fateful day, they saw it—a hulking creature, half-human, half-beast, staring at them from the tree line. It stood eight feet tall, its eyes glowing with an intelligence that chilled them to the bone. Terrified, they shot at the creature, but it fled into the shadows.
That night, their terror reached its peak. The beasts returned in force, surrounding their cabin, pounding on the walls and roof with unnatural strength. The men fired their guns in panic, but the creatures were relentless, attempting to tear down the cabin with their bare hands. Hours passed, and finally, the creatures left. The ground outside was ripped apart by their massive footprints.
The men never returned. They left everything behind, knowing that whatever those creatures were, they weren't human. The mystery remains unsolved, but one thing is certain: some things are best left undisturbed in the deep forests of Mount St. Helens.
*The Curse of the Wild Hen: Death by Superstition*
In 1682, deep in the Congo, a young man named Zuri made a fatal mistake that cost him his life—not by poison, but by sheer belief. Zuri, warned never to eat a wild hen by a village magician, unknowingly consumed one during a breakfast with friends. Years later, when he discovered what he had done, something snapped inside him.
The next day, Zuri was dead. No poison, no physical ailment—just the crushing weight of his own fear. He had broken a forbidden rule, and his body shut down under the power of superstition. Was it dark magic, or the terrifying strength of the mind? No one will ever know, but his death remains a chilling reminder that sometimes, belief can kill.
*The Disappearance of Emma Fillipoff: Vanishing into Darkness*
Emma Fillipoff's story is one of the most unsettling disappearances of the last decade. Emma, a young woman full of life and artistic talent, began spiraling into paranoia and fear in the months leading up to her vanishing. She was last seen outside the Empress Hotel in Victoria, barefoot and confused, speaking in riddles to friends and police.
That night, Emma disappeared without a trace. Despite multiple leads, including strange sightings and a man who claimed she had been his girlfriend, Emma remains missing. Was she running from something, or did her paranoia give way to something far more sinister? The only certainty is that Emma vanished into the night, and her story is a haunting mystery that refuses to fade.
These stories blur the lines between reality and the unknown, giving us a glimpse into the unsettling possibilities that exist just beyond our understanding. Whether it’s a slip in time, an encounter with mysterious creatures, or a death caused by sheer fear, one thing is certain: the unknown holds far more terror than we can comprehend.
