Ian Murray Erskine

The Unseen Podcast

10/10/21 • 23 min

On the 25th of March 1990, two men in a boat on the River Cam in Cambridgeshire spotted a black plastic bag floating down the river. They went to get a closer look and found the horrifying sight of a decomposing male body inside. Dental records identified the victim as 44 year old Ian Murray Erskine who had been missing from his Notting Hill home since the previous December.
The investigation would uncover a complicated series of events after his disappearance and the police would be left wondering what connection this had to his murder.

Harry Howell

The Unseen Podcast

04/09/23 • 30 min

On the 5th of November 1988, 74 year old Harry Howell was seen out and about in the town of Blackpool where he lived. Harry was sociable, loved to put on a bet and go for a pint but he was also a creature of habit and enjoyed his usual routine. It was thought that he had gone home that night as usual nothing out of the ordinary had happened. Around 2 weeks later though his battered body was found in his flat. He had been murdered and everyone now looked at that day, the 5th of November, a little differently. Harry's murder is sadly still unsolved.

Richey Edwards- 4 Year Bonus episode

The Unseen Podcast

11/29/21 • 26 min

Thank you for supporting the podcast for 4 years! Patrons chose this bonus episode for you to hear on the anniversary of the release of the first ever Unseen Episode.
On the 1st of February 1995, lyricist and frontman of the Welsh band Manic Street Preachers left his London hotel in his car and simply vanished without a trace. His car was later found however this just created more questions about what had happened.
Richey was well known and the band had a huge fan base. His personality and his open discussion of mental health struggles made him a well loved figure. Therefore his disappearance has resulted in huge amounts of speculation and theory.
This episode is dedicated to Richey and his family who still search for answers.
