The Dover Demon is a rare cryptid. So rare that it was only seen twice. Described having glowing eyes and long tendril fingers, it was sighted by a 15 year old bold in Dover, Massachusetts in 1977. And 15-year old girl described the same thing., which she claimed to see the following night. It is speculated to have been juvenile animal, such as a mooncalf, which looks like precisely nothing like the creature described. Once again, it's believed to be either a demon or and alien or both.

The Dyatlov Pass Incident is one of the greatest unknown, mythologized to the point that details are often murky, exaggerated or as true as if the 45th president said it.

In 1959, 10 Russian skiers, aged 20 to 38, went on an expedition to Dyatlov Pass. They set out on January 27 with one of them turning around due to a knee injury the next day. The rest were expected to communicate by telegram by February 12. When this failed to happen and an extra week went by, their relatives called a search party.

Their bodies were found scattered away from their abandoned tent. While it was theorized by the investigators that a group of indigenous people had murdered them, this was dismissed by the evidence. There were no signs of a struggle and some of the bodies showed no fatal injuries. The ones who did suffered from bones shattered with force comparable to car crash. Again with no external injuries, these were attributed to an avalanche while the rest were put down to hypothermia. And reopened investigation confirmed this explanation.
