Murder They Wrote: 7 "Buzzfeed Unsolved" Videos To Watch
@ryansbergara via twitter

The only thing consuming my life right now during my downtime is watching YouTube videos. Specifically, "BuzzFeed Unsolved" videos. They are single-handily addicting to watch, I can't stop. I've also been watching some YouTubers visiting abandoning, haunted places.

Anyway, "BuzzFeed Unsolved" started up in February 2016. It has been a weekly web series on their Youtube channel and has been divided into true crime and supernatural where the talk about history's famous unsolved mysteries. It's hosted by Ryan Bergara and Shane Madej and their commentary is one of the best things throughout the videos.

Enough with the basics, let's get down to business and talk about some videos to watch because what's life without a little crime and mystery, am I right?

1. "The Suspicious Assassination of JFK"

In the finale of season 2, Ryan and Shane discuss the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and if the gunman, Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone. They discuss four different theories of how it all went down:

1. Lyndon B. Johnson, former Vice-President to JFK then President after assassination played a role in his murder.

2. Russians were behind the assassination.

3. The Mob killed JFK. There were actually three different mob groups who separately claimed that they took responsibility for killing JFK.

4. The CIA was behind the assassination.

2. "The Tragic Murder Of JonBenét Ramsey"

One of America's most discussed cold cases, the murder of JonBenét happened December 26th, 1996 after her mother discovered a ransom note for her six-year-old daughter. Eight hours after she was reported missing, her father found her located in their basement dead.

Even with hints of possible suspects who killed her, they all came up short on evidence.

3. "The Mysterious Disappearance Of The Sodder Children"

On the night of Christmas Eve in 1945, a family's house burned down with five children trapped in their upstairs bedrooms. The parents and four other children did, but the other five did not. The staircase was on fire, the father discovered his ladder was missing and both of his trucks he was going to use to climb on top would not start.

But the weirdest thing, even after one of the children ran to call the fire department that was 2.5 miles down the road, they didn't arrive until seven hours later.

No bones were found, so the parents suspected their other five children were kidnapped. But by who?

4. "The Creepy Murder In Room 1046"

Roland T. Owens who checked into a hotel in Kansas on January 2nd, 1935 was found badly beaten and tortured in his room a few days later. The hotel maid at the time said he looked like he was worried or afraid of something because he always wanted to be kept in the dark.

People at the hotel heard two male voices and a female voice in his room the night of the incident. But, on the way to the hospital, Owens said he was alone. He died on January 5th.

But, the incidents following his death is what makes this case even stranger.

5. "The Strange Drowning of Natalie Wood"

Famous actress Natalie Wood was found floating face down in the Pacific Ocean about 200 yards away from Catalina Island. Two days before her death, Woods, who with her husband and Christopher Walken, was invited on to join the two on their yacht.

Quick note, Wood's has always had a fear of water and a fortune teller said she was going to die by drowning in water

The theories of her death?

1. Fell in the water and drowned.

2. Foul Play involving her husband

6. "The Spirits Of The Whaley House"

Rated the number one most haunted house in America by the Travel Channel. The house, built in 1857 in , holds the spirits of Thomas Whaley Jr. who died from scarlet fever, Violet Whaley who killed herself over a failed marriage. Anna, Francis and Lillian also would go on to die inside the house.

Shane and Ryan touch base in the video of their experience and how they felt as if they were being watched, flashlights going out and creaking in unoccupied chairs.

But what else do they experience during their stay?

7. "The Haunted Decks of the Queen Mary"

The haunted Queen Mary shipped is docked in Long Beach, California. After running into a smaller boat in October 1942, only 99 out of 430 passengers survived. Many say most ghosts haunt the boiler room and bow of the ship.

Many have experienced supernatural activities of their own experiences in different places of the ship.

But many refuse to enter room B340, especially alone. But why might you ask? Mhm, guess you'll have to watch to find out.

Supernatural, mystery's and dead-end cases, what more exciting thing can you watch during breaks between classes?

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
