The official description for Season 1 Volume 2’s new episodes reads: “In six new episodes, Unsolved Mysteries profiles more unexplained disappearances, tragic events, and bizarre occurrences. Perhaps one viewer holds the key to solving these cases. Detectives, journalists, and family members offer intriguing theories in this gripping series, from the creators of the original docuseries, Cosgrove/Meurer Productions, and 21 Laps Entertainment, the producers of Stranger Things.”

Executive produced by Shawn Levy through his 21 Laps Entertainment Company, Unsolved Mysteries reboot is a 12-part series that uses reenactments in a documentary format to profile real-life mysteries and unsolved crimes, lost love, cases involving missing persons and unexplained paranormal events. Each episode will focus on one mystery.

The original creators of the show — John Cosgrove and Terry Dunn Meurer of Cosgrove-Meurer Productions — have teamed up with Levy for a modern take on the series that will once again look to viewers to help aid investigators in closing the book on long outstanding cases.

Meurer will showrun the revived series. Cosgrove, Levy, and Josh Barry will serve as executive producers, with Robert Wise co-executive producing and showrunning alongside Meurer.
