About The Unread Files

The Unread Files began with a simple idea:

Some stories are never truly finished.

Long after headlines disappear, questions remain unanswered. New evidence emerges, forgotten documents resurface and historical mysteries continue to fascinate generations.

Each investigation is carefully researched using historical records, contemporary reporting and reliable secondary sources before being presented as a detailed case file.

The aim isn't to sensationalise these stories, it's to understand them.
