Unexplained phenomena is very interesting. I like to make up stories for real unexplained events using popular myths. It drives my friends and family crazy.
There are lots of people who very seriously believe aliens, big foot, mothman, chupacabra, and so on and so forth is real. I don't know for sure and have seen no evidence either way but I am still hoping to see Sasquatch one day. I live near Sasquatch territory and according the BFRO (
http://www.bfro.net/ ) there are sightings near my house!
It is funny I've worked with, known, and known of legitimate respectable anthropologists, archaeologists, biologists, and other people with Ph.D before their name and not one would ever publicly say there is good evidence for Sasquatch because they like working, but privately many have admitted to me there is good evidence and a few are very firm believers who even have good physical evidence that will never see the light of day...
I guess the point is don't discount some of these crack pots as real crackpots just because they think something science doesn't accept. I myself have an open mind with healthy skepticism. I like to believe because it is fun but know it is likely something else with most of these myths and legends.
As far as real missing people and corpses. I prefer not to dwell on the evil in humanity and merely make myself aware of it so I can avoid it.
I love it. Anyways weird stuff... I guess a large chunk of my state is on fire.. does that count? It's pretty tragic..
