There’s a new Netflix series that features the feet that washed up on Vancouver Island, which began occurring in 2007.
The docuseries breaks down eight seemingly inexplicable tales of ghost hauntings, alien encounters, and the mysterious feet washing up on shores around Vancouver Island and Washington State.
The Netflix series was the most-watched show on the charts last week, becoming the most popular non-fiction series on the streamer.
All eight episodes were released on April 3rd and run between 30 and 48 minutes apiece.
Produced by Vox, the segment on the mysterious feet can be watched on the last episode, which features interviews, reenactments, and speculation about what may have happened.
The last known foot to have been found on the island occurred last year when a resident discovered a shoe along the shores of Gonzales Beach that contained a severed human foot.
“This isn’t an unheard-of phenomenon in BC,” said a spokesperson for the BC Coroners Service last year. “In fact, there is a map of previous discoveries investigated by our agency.”
See the map below from 2021:
Between 2007 and 2019, there were 15 severed feet inside shoes that washed up on BC’s coast. Five were also discovered along Washington state waters.
As of October 2021, 15 feet found in BC between 2007 and 2018 had been identified — all belonging to people who had gone missing, some several years prior.
Foul play was ruled out in all cases.
