Chantelle, Leela, Simon and Tony lived in a house in the small Australian town of Nannup. Some locals knew that the head of the family, Simon, was the leader of a religious group, but few were aware of what kind of cult it was.
When the entire family disappeared without trace in 2007, wild theories were put forward. Had they committed collective suicide? Or had the four actually travelled to Brazil to do charity work, as they had told some people?

10. The Missing Backpackers
The two young Swedish backpackers Heidi Paakkonen and Urban Höglin wrote many letters and postcards from their trip to their friends and family in the late 1980s. But one day they wanted to go hiking in the New Zealand wilderness and that’s when the correspondence dried up.
Whether the right perpetrator was held responsible was considered questionable when Urban's body was discovered some time after the trial.

8. The Circleville Letters
In 1976, the residents of the small town of Circleville in the US state of Ohio found ghostly letters in their mailboxes for the first time. The writer threatened to reveal their greatest secrets. He also made it clear that he knew things about the recipients' lives that they did not want to make public.
The letters influenced the lives of many people and were probably the reason for at least one death. Who wrote them, however, was never found out.
