Netflix will release the second half of season 1 of the Unsolved Mysteries reboot in October. Hosted by the late Robert Stack, the original Unsolved Mysteries aired in 1987 and featured phenomenal, unbelievable, and unsolvable experiences of ordinary people. Despite numerous revamps, Unsolved Mysteries lost traction with viewers and experienced a decline in ratings after being shuffled around networks.
Last month, Netflix released a fresh batch of real-life mysteries with the premiere of the Unsolved Mysteries reboot. Helmed by Shawn Levy (Stranger Things), the newest season of Unsolved Mysteries featured six spellbinding episodes and unique opportunities for the audience at home to solve the case. Following the series premiere on July 1, Netflix streamers reached out to the producers to relay credible tips. Featuring a vast range of tales that include a hairdresser disappearing in just 13 minutes, UFO sightings, and the mysterious death of Alonzo Brooks, the first half of season 1 garnered significant traffic for the streaming service and left audiences wondering when the rest of season 1 would release. Now, it appears more Unsolved Mysteries is coming very soon.
Per TVLine, Netflix revealed the next six episodes of season 1 would launch on Monday, October 19. Teasing that volume 2 of Unsolved Mysteries will chronicle “more unexplained disappearances, tragic events, and bizarre occurrences,” Netflix took to Twitter to announce the October release date with an eerie photo of a misty forest with the caption: “Let’s see how much of a sleuth Unsolved Mysteries Volume 1 made you…,” leaving viewers to depicter the message within the picture. Check out the post below:
Continuing to devote each episode to a single case, volume 2 of season 1 will feature a variety of topics. These include unexplained deaths, a missing person, and a ghost story. As it stands, volume 1 of Unsolved Mysteries continues to make waves and has led to multiple theories, as well as developments in the cases. Since the premiere of season 1, the FBI has exhumed the body of Alonzo Brooks from the episode “No Ride Home,” Xavier Ligonnès from “House of Terror” was reportedly spotted in Chicago, and viewers have analyzed Ray Rivera’s cryptic letter from “Mystery on the Rooftop."
Sans a host, the Unsolved Mysteries reboot appears to be a winner for Netflix. To date, the show has received numerous credible tips and has left viewers anxious for more. Premiering in late October on Netflix, volume 2 of Unsolved Mysteries arrives at a time that makes it prime viewing for the Halloween season. Perhaps one of the upcoming episodes will feature an iconic update from the recently featured cases of Unsolved Mysteries.
