Netflix fans have been left so scared they couldn’t sleep after watching Unsolved Mysteries.

Since the series first dropped on July 1, viewers have become hooked on the reboot of the 1987 show of the same name, The Sun reports.

The first series of Unsolved Mysteries is available to binge on Netflix right now.

The 12-part series follows a different unsolved mystery each episode, which include unexplained disappearances, brutal murders and paranormal encounters.

Viewers have become obsessed with the creepy new series, but some haven’t been able to get a good night’s sleep because of how spooky it is.

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.

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.
