From June, 1962 through January, 1964, women in the city of Boston lived in fear of the infamous Strangler. Over those 19 months, he committed 13 known murders-crimes that included vicious sexual assaults and bizarre stagings of the victims' bodies. After the largest police investigation in Massachusetts history, handyman Albert DeSalvo confessed and went to prison. Despite DeSalvo's full confession and imprisonment, authorities would never put him on trial for the actual murders. And more t ...

UNEXPLAINED: The Watcher House
Join Trevor as he delves into the unsettling and chilling mystery of the Watcher House, a tale so eerie it has left homeowners and investigators shaken to their core. Nestled in the quiet suburb of Westfield, New Jersey, this seemingly ordinary home became the center of a terrifying ordeal when its new owners began receiving ominous letters from an anonymous figure known only as 'The Watcher.'
With firsthand accounts from residents, journalists, and true crime experts, Josh pieces together the disturbing details of this real-life nightmare, unraveling a case that has baffled authorities and captivated the public. Is 'The Watcher' merely a cruel prankster, or is there something far more sinister lurking behind those cryptic messages? Tune in to find out in this spine-tingling episode!

Transcript:
The First Letter:
“Dearest new neighbor at 657 boulevard, allow me to welcome you to the neighborhood. 657 boulevard has been the subject of my family for decades now and as it approaches its 110th birthday, I have been put in charge of watching and waiting for its second coming. My grandfather watched the house in the 1920s and my father watched in the 1960s. It is now my time. Do you know the history of the house? Do you know what lies within the walls of 657 boulevard? Why are you here? I will find out… Do you need to fill the house with the young blood I requested? Better for me. Was your old house too small for the growing family? Or was it greed to bring me your children? Once I know their names I will call to them and draw them to me.”
"There are hundreds and hundreds of cars that drive by 657 Boulevard each day. Maybe I am in one. Look at all the windows you can see from 657 Boulevard. Maybe I am in one. Look out any of the many windows in 657 Boulevard at all the people who stroll by each day. Maybe I am one.”
The second letter:“657 Boulevard is anxious for you to move in. It has been years and years since the young blood ruled the hallways of the house. Have you found all of the secrets it holds yet? Will the young blood play in the basement? Or are they too afraid to go down there alone? I would be very afraid if I were them. It is far away from the rest of the house. If you were upstairs you would never hear them scream.”
Third letter:“Where have you gone to??? 657 boulevard is missing you.”
Last letter:
“Violent winds and bitter cold… To the vile and spiteful Derek and his wench of a wife Maria… You wonder who The Watcher is? Turn around idiots. “I watched as you watched from the dark house in an attempt to find me...Telescopes and binoculars are wonderful inventions… My soldiers of the Boulevard followed my orders to a T. They carried out their mission and saved the soul of 657 Boulevard with my orders. All hail The Watcher!!!... “Maybe a car accident. Maybe a fire. Maybe something as simple as a mild illness that never seems to go away but makes you feel sick day after day after day after day after day. Maybe the mysterious death of a pet. Loved ones suddenly die. Planes and cars and bicycles crash. Bones break… You are despised by the house and the Watcher won”
“The house is crying from all of the pain it is going through. You have changed it and made it so fancy. You are stealing its history. It cries for the past and what used to be in the time when I roamed its halls. The 1960s were a good time for 657 Boulevard when I ran from room to room imagining life with the rich occupants there. The house was full of life and young blood. Then it got old and so did my father. But he kept watching until the day he died. And now I watch and wait for the day when the young blood will be mine again”
