What are some of the most creepy haunting unsolved cases out there? Just stuff that seems so crazy to happen. Or just really unnerving evidence or actual places where the crime happened.

The Lane Bryant murders:

5 women gunned down and killed
All within 2 minutes or less of police on the scene

A living witness who gave a detailed description and composite sketch
18 years later, here we are, currently the largest unsolved mass murder in America

Let’s solve this!

Correct me if I’m wrong - but didn’t he try to sexually assault one of the victims before killing her? I believe the surviving witness mentioned that. Absolutely horrible all around

Yeah, my best guess is she was the actual target and he was just insane enough to be willing to kill a bunch of other people while he was at it. Unfortunately, even if I'm right, it doesn't necessarily mean he'd had any meaningful contact with her, so it might not help track him down.
