    The Lead Masks Case: Brazil’s Most Bizarre Unsolved Deaths

    In 1966, the bodies of two men were discovered on a remote hill outside Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. They were lying side by side, dressed in matching suits and waterproof coats. What made the scene truly eerie were the lead masks covering their eyes, like homemade radiation goggles and the cryptic handwritten note found nearby: "Be at the agreed place at 16:30. Take capsules after the effect, protect metals, await signal, mask..." The victims, Manoel Pereira da Cruz and Miguel José Viana, were local electronics technicians with an interest in spiritualism and scientific experimentation. But there were no signs of violence, no clear cause of death, and no trace of drugs in their system.

    America’s Cold War Secret and the Mystery of the Missing Room

    Beneath the opulent halls of The Greenbrier Hotel in West Virginia lies one of America's best-kept Cold War secrets a massive underground fallout shelter built in the 1950s, known as Project Greek Island. For over 30 years, this covert government facility remained hidden in plain sight, ready to house every member of the U.S. Congress in the event of nuclear war. But when the existence of the bunker was exposed in the 1990s, questions began to surface—questions about areas of the complex not found on any blueprint. Whispers emerged of a missing room, sealed off behind reinforced walls, its purpose unknown. Was it simply an unfinished part of the project or something more sinister? From Cold War paranoia and government deception to the eerie silence surrounding what still lies locked underground, this episode of Mysteries at Bedtime explores the true story of The Greenbrier bunker… and the chilling rumours that refuse to be buried.

    The Dodleston Messages: Time Travel or Hoax? The BBC Micro Mystery

    In the quiet village of Dodleston, Cheshire, a bizarre and baffling mystery began unfolding in 1984. Ken Webster, a schoolteacher, was working on a BBC Micro computer when strange messages began to appear—written in an archaic form of English, and allegedly sent by someone living in the year 1541. The messages continued over the following months, becoming more elaborate and unnerving. Later, new messages arrived this time from someone claiming to live in the year 2109, warning of unseen forces manipulating time itself. Known today as the Dodleston Messages, this case remains one of the strangest examples of alleged time slip communication in modern paranormal lore. Was it an elaborate hoax, a psychological trick… or genuine contact across centuries? In this episode of Mysteries at Bedtime, we examine the digital trail, the witness accounts, and the unanswered questions behind one of Britain’s most haunting tech-era mysteries.

But his body was never formally identified, and questions still swirl around whether Granger died that night or went somewhere else entirely. In this haunting episode of Mysteries at Bedtime, we explore the life and mind of Granger Taylor, the cultural impact of his disappearance, and the enduring theories: Was it suicide? A delusion?

    The Vanishing Sailor: Donald Crowhurst and the Golden Globe Race Mystery

    In 1968, an amateur sailor named Donald Crowhurst set out from England in a homemade trimaran to compete in the Sunday Times Golden Globe Race—the first ever solo, non-stop circumnavigation of the globe. But what began as a bold quest for fame and fortune soon turned into one of the most baffling mysteries in maritime history. With an untested boat, limited experience, and mounting financial pressure, Crowhurst quickly found himself in trouble. Rather than turn back and face ruin, he began faking his journey, submitting false radio reports and logbooks from the middle of the Atlantic. As other competitors dropped out, Crowhurst’s deception pushed him closer to the spotlight—and to the edge of his sanity. Nine months later, his boat, Teignmouth Electron, was found adrift in the Atlantic. The sails were intact. Supplies were untouched. But Donald Crowhurst was gone. What investigators found in his recovered logbooks shocked the world—philosophical ramblings, dual logs, and evidence of a mind in collapse. Was it madness? Guilt? A cosmic revelation? Or all three? This is the true story of a man who vanished into the ocean and into legend. A tale of ambition, pressure, isolation—and the deep, unknowable silence of the sea.
