From a mysterious metal fragment found beneath a hovering craft in Sweden to an "impossible" iron nugget that defied every known law of physics, these are the real physical objects that UFOs left behind — and scientists still can't explain them.

IN THIS EPISODE: In 1949, the dark and twisted romance of Raymond Fernandez and Martha Beck, the infamous Lonely Hearts Killers, shocked the nation. Fueled by obsession and deceit, their deadly love story left a trail of victims—and a haunting legacy of betrayal and murder. (Mad Love: The Lonely Hearts Killers) *** In the shadows of Ottawa's lumber industry, Joseph Currier's rise from ambitious teenager to wealthy businessman was matched only by the mysterious tragedies that followed him - including the death of his young bride in a mill accident that some say wasn't quite what it seemed. Perhaps her ghost has something to say about it. (Haunting of Watson’s Mill) *** Awakening to find yourself paralyzed, you sense a sinister presence in the darkness, its weight pressing down as your lungs gasp for air. Helpless and terrified, you realize the nightmare has only just begun. You’re in the presence of a Sleep Demon. (Between Dreams and Demons) *** "From ghostly serenades at Meridian's Grand Opera House to the chilling specter of Stuckey pacing his deadly bridge, Mississippi's haunted locales are teeming with restless spirits and dark legends. Whether it's playful children in a graveyard or vengeful apparitions at the McRaven House, each site promises an encounter with the otherworldly. (Haunted Mississippi) *** When strange objects fall from mysterious lights in the sky, junior UFO researcher Sarah Martinez must investigate five incredible cases where aliens might have left behind actual pieces of their spacecraft. As she digs deeper into each mysterious discovery, she realizes these aren't just stories of lights in the sky – these are cases where someone found something they could hold in their hands.
