Mysteries at the Museum is a popular paranormal show that travels around the world, exploring some of the most intriguing stories and enigmas of the past. Season 21 Episode 12 introduces the viewers to three new mysteries - beginning with the enigmatic coral castle mystery.

Coral Castle is an architectural wonder located in Miami, Florida, that covers over 1,100 tons of coral rock and contains numerous sculptures, intricate design features, and unique hidden spaces. The massive monument was built by a single man named Edward Leedskalnin, who claimed to have magical powers and built the entire castle himself using only hand tools. The mystery of this awe-inspiring structure is how did he manage to create this huge castle with stones that weigh hundreds of kilograms. The episode looks into the secrets that Leedskalnin took to his grave and how this little-known landmark continues to fascinate and attract visitors from all over the world.

Next up, the episode returns to World War II and the mystery of the "Bird's Eye Spy." This fascinating episode looks at one of the most significant discoveries of espionage during World War II, where the FBI uncovered a spy ring that had infiltrated the US Army. The spies used hidden cameras to photograph military installations for the Japanese government. However, one of the spies was caught trying to take photographs while posing as a pigeon watcher, which is how the operation earned its peculiar name- The Bird's Eye Spy. The spy's existence, a woman named Velvalee Dickinson, was uncovered after the FBI intercepted one of her letters to a Japanese agent. The letter contained what seemed an innocuous message from a friendly aunt, but beneath the code, was an attempt at espionage. The episode details the interest and intrigue that arose from how the spies managed to obtain and smuggle the high-quality photographs into Japanese hands, and how they were transmitted back and forth.

Finally, the last mystery of the episode features UFO sightings during World War II. The episode titled Frightening Foo Fighters explores the bizarre sightings made by war pilots during the height of the war. Foo Fighters were described as unidentifiable flying objects which displayed an awe-inspiring display of lights in the air. It was initially suggested that these sightings might be some experimental technology from Nazi forces, but as these sightings continued, it became apparent that the phenomenon was not local to any specific area or nation. Instead, these strange lights and objects appeared all over the world, baffling pilots and causing concern for military officials. The episode digs into the theories surrounding this mystery, the investigations that were carried out, and the role that these sightings played in the history of science fiction.

Mysteries at the Museum Season 21 Episode 12 offers a fascinating deep-dive into some of the lesser-known historical mysteries and curiosities. In exploring the stories of the bizarre objects and monuments, the episode unravels the secrets behind each of these stories, taking a closer look at the people and unique events that make these tales come to life. Each mystery presents its own unique set of circumstances and conspiracies, and with each story, the episode illuminates the intricate and strange ways that the secrets of the past have a way of uncovering themselves.
