Summary

IN THIS EPISODE: The eerie swamps of Florida hide many secrets, but none as chilling as the legend of the Moss Man. (The Florida Moss Man) *** From reports of undead creatures terrorizing Eastern Europe in the 1700s, to scientific explanations behind the myths, we’ll take a brief look at vampires and how they straddle the boundary between fiction and fact. (The Creation of Vampires And How To Hunt Them) *** Parking tickets, floppy disks and escaped victims helped catch a few of the most infamous serial killers of all time. (How Five Infamous Serial Killers Were Finally Caught) *** Can a hair salon be haunted? You might want to check before your next appointment, assuming you don’t want a hair-raising experience! (Haunted Hair Salons) *** In 1849 Cincinnati, a gruesome murder in a boardinghouse shocked the community, revealing a tragic tale of love, abuse, and desperation, eventually exposing a case of domestic abuse that left the courtroom and the city forever changed. (Give Me Back My Children) *** A 911 caller frantically said, "I swear to God this is not a joke," describing towering, alien-like figures with big eyes that had invaded their backyard. (100% Not Human - The 2023 Las Vegas UFO Sighting)
