Unexplained Mysteries
Unexplained mysteries are found all around the world. All cultures love to tell tales that have strange or unknown endings.
Some very famous mythological examples include:
The Loch Ness Monster
The Yeti
The Chupacabra
Unexplained mysteries can also be about real events or people. Some examples include:
Amelia Earhart
Jack the Ripper
Anastasia
