Wisconsin: The demon bunkbed in the Tallman house - In 1987, the Tallman family brought a secondhand bunk bed to their home in Horicon. For the next nine months, the family was haunted by what appeared to be poltergeists—clock radios turning on by themselves, a paintbrush that dipped itself in paint—and worse, including the children becoming ill despite no previous health problems and an unexplained fire. The hauntings ceased only when the Tallman family destroyed the bunk bed. Are you familiar with this unsolved mystery?

Wyoming: Devil's Tower - Various Native American tribes view the Devil's Tower National Monument as a sacred site and have their own origination stories about the massive stone structure. And science fiction fans may recall that the mythology of the structure played an important role in the film, Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Geologically speaking, it's made of volcanic material and is connected in some way to an existing or previously-existing volcano. But precisely how it came to exist continues to confound scientists.

Washington D.C.: Murder of Lynn Amos - Amos worked as a financial consultant making frequent trips to Mexico. On December 11, firefighters arrived at her townhouse after it was set on fire. They found her unconscious in bed, which turned out to be the only thing on fire. A nurse asked her if she knew what had happened, but she shook her head. She died 10 days later. A cigarette butt found near her bed suggested accidentally setting herself on fire while smoking in bed. However, her friends and family did not believe she was a smoker and there was no evidence of cigarettes, matches, or ashtrays anywhere else in the home. A few days later, investigators examined the bedroom. They found a mixture of kerosene, gasoline, and turpentine on the mattress, floor, and pillow concluding the fire had been deliberately set. A doctor also stated her burns were not consistent with an accidental fire. One month after her death, the cause was officially listed as "homicide". At first, investigators could not determine why Lynn was killed. However, they soon learned from her friends and family that she may have been murdered because of an investigation she was doing at her work involving Mexican banks.
