The Walmart Human Oven Incident is one of the most unsettling and perplexing mysteries ever investigated on Reddit.

On the night of October 19th, 2024, emergency responders were dispatched to a Walmart on Mumford Road in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The call they received was unlike anything they’d handled before. A death so strange and inexplicable that it would spawn a complex investigation that police still won’t talk about to this day.

The story broke to the public on Reddit through eyewitness accounts of people who claimed to have been at the store that night:

A girl was found dead in a cornfield, and for 36 years, no one could figure out who she was. With only a few belongings and a sketch to go on, the case went cold – until internet sleuths pieced together the clues and uncovered the truth the police couldn't. This is the incredible story of how the internet solved a decades-old mystery, and how a manhunt for her killer has now begun.

On September 11th, 2001, the United States was attacked. In the space of an hour, three planes hit both World Trade Center towers and the Pentagon. The name on everyone's lips was Osama bin Laden, the Al-Qaeda leader. CIA analysts, FBI agents, and military planners all focused their crosshairs on him. Meanwhile, the real mastermind behind 9/11 lurked in the shadows, completely undetected, free to continue fulfilling his dreams of death and destruction.

For years before September 11th, the U.S. government had been given numerous opportunities to stop him, but each time they failed to put the pieces...

This is in part because nearly every time someone tries to explain it, they base their theories on common myths, inaccuracies, and misinterpretations of the facts.

Back in November, people began noticing a strange Instagram account that almost exclusively featured artistic photographs of human remains.

“If you know, you know. skulls/bones available. Dm to inquire,”

It seemed whoever was behind this account wasn’t just photographing skulls. They were selling them.

But what was the meaning behind the cryptic line “If you know, you know”?

Months later the world would find out.

The Gabby Petito case is the highest profile case to have ever been solved with the help of the internet. But now, years later, although the case has long been closed, Reddit users have reasons to believe that it shouldn’t be. That there are certain people involved in the case whose hidden crimes have still gone unpunished.

Today's episode is on the health benefits and risks of placentophagy - consuming placenta after childbirth. As always, we recommend speaking with your doctor before going ahead with any alternative medical practices. There are some risks involved with eating placenta, but some celebrities seem to be doing it — but is this just another pseudoscientific “alternative” medicine, or is it backed by more than just celebrity endorsements? Let’s get into it.

A found footage of a man trapped hundreds of feet deep below the earth has deeply disturbed millions of viewers and has cemented itself as one of the most mysterious found footage cases in history.

In his horrifying final moments, the man is seen running... but from who? Or from what?

Numerous questions have gone unanswered for over twenty years… until today.

This man should not be alive.

In fact, on the morning of May 11th, 1996, his wife, Peach, received a call at their home in Dallas, Texas, informing her that he had died somewhere on Mt. Everest during the deadliest storm the mountain had ever seen.

But the truth was, her husband Beck Weathers was still alive, but just barely. And the person who had reported his “death” could have rescued him, but chose not to.
