I’m not laying in bed, but sitting on it. And toking green leafy substance. I’ve been watching “Unsolved Mysteries” since its original time slot on NBC. Robert Stack’s voice itself made this show. This surfacing of the styrofoam container from out of nowhere, in the middle of the ocean, is nothing else but a divine miracle and intervention. He made it. I was 26 when this happened in 1990, and I regret the others are presumed dead. But I see the survivor as God’s Will, and yet I’m probably wrong due to the other three. Triumph with tragedy. Another memorable episode of “Unsolved Mysteries” is the horror story of the Horicon, Wisconsin demon. And the bunk bed.

Oy the Cassie Nicole. I'll never forget the reenactment (getting chills typing this) when the woman relative who had been getting strange phone calls looks out her kitchen pondering about everything that had transpired following anther abrupt call. Stack's commentary of: "After only a moment, the connection was broken. There have been no calls since. The Niesmiths and the Tysons are convinced that the three missing men were taken aboard the passing freighter, and perhaps transported to a foreign country against their will" That statement combined with the eerie music, and then the photos of the three men against the black granite background UM always used has haunted me all these years. Chills. Damn I wish I knew what happened to them.

is it really likely though, that a passing freighter which must contain a reasonable amount of crew who would all likely be fully aware of the situation that they had 3 american captives would be, for whatever reason, around 20 or so miles off of the coast of georgia with the entire crew except for potentially one guy all in on it, all keeping quiet, all contributing towards their captivity and their.....what? torture? murder? for what reason? because they just dont like americans? i think that the ship mightve seen the debris and taken it aboard, i think its logical that if they found survivors that it would be followed up in some way, because why wouldnt it be? they probably just drowned and i dont blame this guy for hoping for the best, he probably feels responsible, but i think they died shortly after he swam away. i dont think he shouldnt have swam away, he clearly made the right decision or he wouldve been dead too.......but they shouldve gone too, they should have tried

This old show is so nostalgic for me! I used to watch this as a kid with my grandparents! It was one of our favorites!

I was a big fan of this show, watched pretty much every episode, and even after all these years, the Philip Fraser story still stands out as one of the creepiest stories they ever covered. It still sends chills up and down my spine listening to the café owner and her daughter describing the creepy, sinister vibes that weird hitchhiker gave them.

Lol I used to hitchhike and ride trains and we were always scared the drivers that picked us up were going to be killers. One guy really seemed like it, he wore leather gloves the entire ride, didn't say anything but was listening to Frank Zappa in a spotless car with entomology flyers sitting around, right when we got out my girlfriend was like "did he feel like a serial killer you?" And I said "I was just about to ask you the same thing". But sometimes it's a pain getting a ride but you understand why people are cautious of you too like you are of them.

I have a feeling the hitchhikers is still out there somewhere. He’s getting older but still here.

"Flabby belly", lol, Stack funny

I always loved the Mac McDonald segment. It was a complex situation and I think he was genuinely remorseful about what happened. You can also see it all in the reaction of Helen during the reunion. Her manner of speaking and expression had me feeling that she realized her own mother was right all along about him. His daughter was an incredibly thoughtful and open person about the whole thing.

Old post but you are spot on. As an added though, he had all that money and couldn't find his daughter doesn't sound right. I don't think he tried too much, not sure if he was still scared because of statute of limitations or what but he had the means to find her IF he really wanted to. Sadly when he died there's no mention of his daughter, so maybe it's more complicated than we think. Maybe he was NOT her father after all. It's been done before, who knows.

Sad whatever it was that happened between Sherry and Mac.

After watching this episode I wonder how Mac's daughter Sherry and him got along after the show. She seemed to not want him to be part of her life. Although I feel bad for Sherry because she was born into a pretty crazy situation. I looked at Mac's obituary and it didn't mention her. I have a feeling perhaps the two drifted apart after the years. I wonder if the two made peace with each other and that it was an accident that Sherry's name wasn't on there. Sometimes with these updates there's more that goes on which we don't know and that it isn't always a happy ending. But I really hope things turned out ok.

Why would you go to her house if the fear of being arrested made you leave not even 5 mins later? Especially when the mother wasn't being mean towards you at all. He ran away because he didn't wanna be a dad. He could've sent money or even waited til Mary was 18 to ask for marriage. Then, he waits until he's old & the child is well past 18 to want to reconnect. Please. Just a selfish old creep who wanted to feel better about abandoning his child.
