Suggested by: u/11Kram Naturally, there are tons of theories as to who she was and what exactly happened to her. They range from her being killed by serial killers or mobsters to her being a criminal herself. One of the most notorious theories, though, comes from Stephen King’s son, who, while watching Jaws, noticed an extra who looked strikingly similar to the sketch composite of the Isdal Woman. Further, in the scene, she was wearing a blue bandana and jeans, just like the ones the body was found on top of. Unfortunately, though, Universal Studios didn’t have any record of the extra, and it is nonetheless still just a theory. Suggested by: Anonymous The gun belonged to Paul Freshour — Mary’s brother-in-law. Paul was tried and convicted for attempted murder. He was in prison for ten years — specifically without being allowed pens or paper — and, yet, the letters kept coming. They finally stopped in 1994, when Paul was released. The author is still unknown. Suggested by: Anonymous You can read more about the case here. Suggested by: Anonymous You can read more about the case here.

Detectives traced a bag they found in the suitcases from the shoes to a shop 130 miles away. An employee described the woman he sold the shoes to, specifying she was well-dressed and had the strange odor of garlic. They later learned that she stayed at a nearby hotel under the name Fenella Lorch. However, nobody by that name had stayed anywhere in Bergen, where she was found. As it turns out, the woman had gone by at least eight different names, having identification for each. They realized that the code found in her suitcase indicated where and for how long she was staying in different places. Given the details of the case and its proximity to the Cold War, it’s no surprise many people theorize the Isdal Woman was a spy of some sort. However, that, and many details of the case, are still unknown to this day. Suggested by: bethowens514 There are tons of theories as to what happened to the family, ranging from the elements to Bobby’s father murdering the family, to being targeted by a religious cult. The theories are further fueled by the strange details of the case, like an 11-page “hate letter” from Sherilynn to Bobby found in the car. Bobby’s father was also under suspicion, as his son had filed a protective order against him six months earlier. And finally, there were rumors of the family’s involvement in the occult, furthered by some graffiti found on the storage container on their property that said “Three cats killed to date by people in this area. Witches don’t like their black cat killed.” Still, though, what exactly happened to the family is a mystery.
