Watching the old school episodes of "Unsolved Mysteries" before bed was a poor choice. Please let me sleep. #UnsolvedMysteries #nightmares

Watching Unsolved Mysteries on Netflix. I was totally okay watching the ones about murderers (Patrice's husband did it), but they snuck a UFO episode in there. Now I'm scared and I'm definitely going to have sleep paralysis tonight.#UnsolvedMysteries pic.twitter.com/ShGSAjHKjl

Welp. I binge watched the new season of #unsolvedmysteries on @netflix last night and in classic fashion of watching it before bed in the 90s, I didn't sleep for obvious reasons.

Canât sleep because the theme music for #UnsolvedMysteries is still as terrifying as it was 25 years ago when I stayed up past my bedtime. ð

In one shocking episode, a man revealed that he used to sleep with his dead wife’s ashes and carried her skull around a funeral home.
The husband of Patrice Endres – a wife and mother who mysteriously went missing from her salon in Cumming, Georgia in broad daylight in 2004 – made the shocking confession during the second episode of the documentary series, titled 13 minutes.
Patrice’s husband, Rob Endres, said: “Probably for a year or longer after Patrice was returned to me – her ashes – she stayed in my bed. I slept with her.
“It’s something that I typically don’t share with people. But she was like my teddy bear.
“Because that’s how we used to sleep … snuggled … It just brought back good memories. And yes, I’m protective of Patrice. And I have her. That’s a good thing.”
Viewers were disgusted by Rob’s confession.
Iâm so uncomfortable.. why is Rob just showing Patriceâs ashes all willy nilly to the cameras?? And keeping it in some beat up box #UnsolvedMysteries pic.twitter.com/TqYFEuPdkd

Okay, but how weird for Patriceâs husband Rob to say that he âhasâ her. As if no one can have her but him? He doesnât even allow her son to have proper closure or keep even part of her remains. #UnsolvedMysteries

This Rob guy is creepy and crazy af. And the fact he specifically keeps Patriceâs ashes away from her son. What an ass. #UnsolvedMysteries #unsolvedmysteriesnetflix

The show has even converted UFO sceptics with the “most compelling evidence yet” in the Berkshire sightings case.
Several viewers have admitted to changing their minds about UFOs after listening to accounts from four families who claim to have been abducted by a flying saucer on September 1, 1969.
Creator Terry Dunn Meurer recently revealed the reboot had prompted 1500 new case leads in its first week, and it’s thought the case of Alonzo Brooks – who disappeared from a Kansas party in 2004 – could be the first case to be solved.
The creator told TMZ that around 50 of the 1500 tips the team has received have been “forwarded to the appropriate law enforcement agencies”.
Alonzo was last seen on April 3, 2004, at a local house party in rural Kansas.
His friends, confused about who was giving who a ride home, accidentally left Alonzo at the party. He never made it home and his body was discovered a month later.
