The Moonlit Archive is a collaborative investigation into every strange, mysterious, unexplainable, and fascinating event in human history.
Our mission is simple but enormous:
to catalog all mysteries from around the world—past and present—with clarity, transparency, and open research, and to uncover the truth wherever it can be found.
This project brings together the curious, the skeptical, the believers, the experts, and the storytellers.
Anyone can explore the Archive freely—and supporters can help build it piece by piece.
The world is full of ghost stories, UFO sightings, impossible creatures, unexplained disappearances, forgotten histories, strange coincidences, and profound personal experiences. These stories matter—because they shape culture, belief, fear, and wonder.
The Moonlit Archive exists to:
Document every case in a structured, organized way
Research claims using open sources, historical records, interviews, and community contributions
Compare theories and interpretations using linked debate and analysis pages
Preserve personal testimonies alongside verifiable sources
Invite the world to investigate collaboratively
Solve mysteries where possible—bringing real evidence, clarity, and truth to stories that have been uncertain for decades or even centuries
Not every mystery will have an answer.
But where answers can be found, this Archive is built to find them.
Browsing and reading the Archive will always be free.
If you want to actively participate in solving mysteries, a pledge of $1/month on The Moonlit Ghost Patreon unlocks the ability to:

This keeps the Archive open to all—but protected from spam, vandalism, and chaos.
Every edit is versioned and transparent. Every contribution helps build something lasting.
The Moonlit Archive is more than a website.
It’s a living project. A growing record. A centralized database for the world’s strangest stories. A place to preserve experiences that might otherwise be forgotten, ignored, or dismissed.
And it is the first step in a larger mission:
To research deeply
To question honestly
To document responsibly
To serve as a beacon of truth-seeking in the dark places of the world
We don’t claim to have all the answers.
But we are committed to asking the right questions.
Whether you're a casual reader, a dedicated researcher, or someone with a story of your own—the Archive welcomes you.
If you have experienced something mysterious, or if you know a case we should document, reach out or submit it. Every voice matters.
If you want to help build the most comprehensive mystery database ever created, consider supporting the project so you can help edit and expand the Archive.
Together, we can illuminate the unknown—one case at a time.
