Former ‘Unsolved Mysteries’ Host Robert Stack Became Too Involved In The Cases

Actor Robert Stack is often celebrated as the host of Unsolved Mysteries. Unfortunately, he passed away in 2003 at the age of 84. Before that, he was reportedly very involved in the cases seen on Unsolved Mysteries and always had hope that even the craziest cases could be solved one day.

The co-creator of the show, Terry Dunn Meurer recently talked about Robert and his love of the show. Terry admitted, “He would get so involved in the stories. He wasn’t just a host who read copy. He became really involved. He would ask questions about the episodes. He really, really cared in a sincere way about these cases.”

Terry continued, “He would also get really excited when a case was solved or a new update came in. There are so many stories I could tell you about Bob, but that’s how I remember him best. He cared so much about these stories and the people who were involved. He never shied away from asking questions after he saw a script and he always hoped something would come from them.”
