April 2, 1978 began like any other Sunday on the sleepy scrap of land known as Bell Island. It’s few scattered residents were waking up and starting their days, when suddenly an enormous blast from an unknown source sent a shockwave through the morning’s stillness. A boom that could be felt and heard rattled the landscape, damaging buildings and causing appliances and television sets to explode within people’s homes. Eyewitnesses reported seeing strange orbs and beams of light in the sky and hearing a high, buzzing sound immediately following the blast. Others reported visible metallic looking dust in the air.

The sound of the two to four second blast echoed across an area of 100 kilometers. The locals, concerned about everyone’s well-being as well as the cause of the damage, began to search the island for answers. No source for the explosion could be found, however, leaving both the island’s inhabitants and the scientific community at large stunned. What could have been behind such a rapid and destructive event? Some unforeseen natural disaster? A collapse of the highly-concentrated iron mines beneath the island? Or, more ominously, was it the effect of some new kind of magnetic technology?

Georgi Markov, a dissident of the Soviet Union and enemy of the state in his native Bulgaria, had been poisoned. It was one of the most devious acts of spycraft ever documented, and the "umbrella incident" stood out as an important clue. What happened during that fateful encounter on the street? Could an umbrella really have been turned into a secret weapon? And who was the mystery umbrella man who seemingly disappeared, never to be seen again?

A secret message carved into the jungle... Was it a lost signal from a US soldier left behind after the Vietnam War?

In January 1988, CIA satellites captured imagery of bizarre man-made symbols carved into the earth in Laos. In Xam Neua, a northeastern town near the border with Vietnam that literally translates to “northern swamp,” the large letters “USA” were visibly hacked into a rice paddy, along with a nearby letter K made out of piles of rice stalks. The letter K was a known distress signal among U.S. pilots during the Vietnam War, an intriguing suggestion that this was the work of an American still surviving behind enemy lines long after the Vietnam War had ended. The presence of these symbols raised an interesting and difficult question for the U.S. government: was there proof that American soldiers were still being held as prisoners in Laos, and if so, how could they possibly go about getting them out?

What happened to the Soviet hikers of Dyatlov Pass and what was the "unknown compelling force" that they encountered? Subscribe now: http://bit.ly/DarkDocs

For centuries, a peak in the Ural Mountains of Siberia has been known to the indigenous Mansi people as Kholat Syakhl, or the “Mountain of Doom.” Its extreme, isolated, and hostile climate raised the specter of doom for anyone bold enough to attempt its slopes.

Given the danger, it should have been little surprise then, when in 1959 nine young hikers were found buried under the deep snow. At first glance, the incident could have easily been chalked up to an avalanche or freak storm. As investigators began looking further into the details of their ill-fated journey, however, it became evident that the mountain may be hiding an even darker secret behind its perilous reputation. Unexplained radiation readings, sightings of strange lights in the sky, and evidence of an unknown “compelling natural force” quickly turned the incident into one of the most mysterious unsolved cases in the world.
