Creepiest segments on "Unsolved Mysteries"?

One, that I remember giving me the creeps was the one about "Mothman", even though I don't believe in such a thing (and I agree with most people that the "glowing red eyes" likely came from an owl), but some of the witness counts, and the re-enactments were just eerie!

What's you pick?

I love "Unsolved Mysteries"!

My own choice for creepiest segment would this one case about an attempted murder in New Hampshire. It's the middle of the night and this woman stops to use a soda machine somewhere, when she gets attacked by this guy and stabbed. He leaves her for dead, but the woman somehow survives and gets into her car and drives off. She thinks she's escaped her attacker, but she soon finds herself driving behind him. Eventually, she gets to a friend's house and retreats to safety inside. The would-be killer pulls up in front of the house, stares at it for a bit, and then finally drives off.

Another candidate for creepiest segment is the one about the arsonist. This family finds a VHS cassette on the side of the road. They take it home and plug it into the VCR, and what they end up seeing is footage of a house burning while some ecstatic weirdo gloats about it off screen. Not very scary, but definitely a strange case. They eventually did an update and announced that the idiot was caught.

What's weird is they don;t know if the harassment stopped after the husband died.

For me, it was the case of Marvin and Sandra Maple, grandparents who (to all evidence, and very much IMO) lied and said their daughter and son-in-law had abused their kids, ending up kidnapping them, apparently with the aid of other members of the daughter's family. The original segment said that they initially agreed to take care of the kids while the parents upgraded their skills during an economic downturn. It indicated that they liked feeling young again while taking care of the kids. Notably, they never sought custody of the daughter's then-youngest child, despite the multiple-times disproven allegations of abuse.

This one always struck me as creepiest for the sheer selfishness the kidnapping grandparents exhibited. For those that side with the Maples, let me just say I've looked this whole thing over from several angles, and believe that yes, they were lying about the abuse.

Just looked that up on the UM wiki, and found this pretty devastating.

"The kids are alive and and well-adjusted adults now but with little emotional attachment to their own parents due to the abduction. The grown children have refused all efforts to reunite with their parents. Whether this is due to some form of brainwashing by the grandparents remains to be seen."

There is one bit of long-term hope. The kids, at least right after the arrest, did agree to talk with their siblings, who presumably may be able to convince them that they (the younger set who were not sought or who were born after the original custody suits) were not abused.

I think the grandparents' other children must maintain a mantra that their daughter and son-in-law for these children really were abusers, or they just didn't like their sibling calling out their parents so publicly, and the kids buy the line. Or maybe, it's understandably hard for them to take in that the people who probably told them never to take so much as a stick of gum stole ya know, them.

I think this one sticks with me for how chillingly mundane it is, compared to some of the complex and bizarro schemes you hear about on UM.

This one is creepy, particularly the phone call to police.

Also the possibility that the mother may have been behind her own daughter's kidnapping.
