What happens
BuzzFeed Unsolved (also known as simply Unsolved) is a documentary entertainment web series created by Ryan Bergara for BuzzFeed, premiering on February 4, 2016. It first appeared on the YouTube channel BuzzFeed Blue and was later given its own flagship channel BuzzFeed Unsolved Network. The show was split into two alternating themes, with each season seeing Ryan Bergara and co-host Shane Madej discussing either unsolved crimes in BuzzFeed Unsolved True Crime or investigating alleged haunted locations and demonic possessions in BuzzFeed Unsolved Supernatural. The show was filmed primarily in the United States with some episodes filmed in separate locations in England and Mexico. Most episodes were followed by a question and answer episode, entitled BuzzFeed Unsolved Postmortem, where Bergara and Madej answered questions sent in by viewers about the week's episode. The series began streaming on Hulu and Amazon Prime in 2018. Prior to the premiere of season 8, BuzzFeed renewed the show for a 9th season, which appeared in late 2018. In 2019, the 10th season premiered in March and the 11th season premiered in September. In late 2019, Bergara and Madej started their own digital production company, Watcher Entertainment, with Worth It's Steven Lim; however, the two continued BuzzFeed Unsolved with a 12th season in March 2020. BuzzFeed Unsolved True Crime concluded with its 8th and final season in July 2021, and the 7th and final season of BuzzFeed Unsolved Supernatural started in October 2021 and wrapped in November. There are a total of fifteen seasons. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Supernatural was not produced in 2020, resulting in one fewer season than True Crime, as production was unable to secure haunted locations to visit under quarantine. The final episode was followed by a behind-the-scenes documentary BuzzFeed Unsolved: The Making of the Final Investigation on 24 November 2021. The "spiritual successor" to BuzzFeed Unsolved Supernatural is Ghost Files, a documentary entertainment web series by Watcher Entertainment that was first released on September 23, 2022. The successor to BuzzFeed Unsolved True Crime is Mystery Files, which was released on May 19, 2023. Bergara and Madej returned to the BuzzFeed Unsolved Network through a collaboration with Watcher for a one-off episode on December 7, 2024, reviewing paranormal evidence. On September 26, 2025, a new show titled Buzzfeed Unsolved Desert Lore was launched. The show featured new hosts Blake and T'Chara. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
