i guess bizarre historical stories where there is some significant interesting component that is still unresolved... in the case of martin guerre, it's whether his wife knew it was an imposter... in kaspar hauser's case, it's basically who the hell was he

Just curious. How did you come across these people? You must be pretty well-read.

Those two are well-known stories if one's into historical mysteries and hoaxes.
