Episode 25-Danny Casolaro Part 2

In this second and final part of our investigation into the death of journalist Danny Casolaro, we dive deep into the tangled theories he was chasing — a network he called The Octopus.

We examine the official suicide ruling and the disturbing contradictions in the autopsy, scene, and missing evidence. We explore how a piece of case-tracking software called PROMIS may have evolved into a global surveillance tool — quietly sold to foreign governments, embedded with secret backdoors, and used to fund off-the-books operations.

From arms deals and intelligence laundering to the shadowy deaths of other whistleblowers, we unravel the threads Danny believed connected it all — and the theory that he didn’t die alone, but was silenced before he could tell the world what he found.

Did Danny Casolaro fall victim to obsession… or did he get too close to the truth?

Episode 24-Danny Casolaro Part 1

In August 1991, journalist Danny Casolaro was found dead in a West Virginia hotel bathtub — his wrists slashed, his briefcase missing, and his manuscript nowhere to be found. Days earlier, he had told friends and family that he was on the verge of exposing a vast conspiracy he called “The Octopus” — one that connected arms deals, stolen surveillance software, political corruption, and covert intelligence networks.

Officially, it was ruled a suicide.

But the details — the number of cuts, the missing files, the warnings he gave before his death — have haunted investigators, journalists, and his family for decades.

In this episode of The Midnight Mystery Archive, we unravel Danny’s final days, explore the PROMIS software scandal, and ask the question that still refuses to go quiet: Did Danny Casolaro take his own life… or was he silenced for discovering too much?

Episode 23-Tamam Shud/Somerton Man

On the first morning of December 1948, a man was found dead on Somerton Beach in Adelaide, Australia. He had no wallet, no ID, and every label had been cut from his clothes. In a hidden pocket, police discovered a torn scrap of paper with two haunting words: Tamám Shud — “It is ended.”

What followed is one of the most enduring mysteries of the 20th century.

In this episode of The Midnight Mystery Archive, we unravel the strange and chilling threads of the Somerton Man case: a rare book with a missing page, a cryptic code that’s never been cracked, a woman with possible ties to espionage, and a body exhumed more than 70 years later in search of a name.

Was he a Cold War spy? A scorned lover? Or someone determined to vanish so thoroughly, even death left no clues?

This is the story of a riddle in human form — and a case that asks: can a mystery be truly solved if the story behind it stays buried?
