  • Grave Mistakes

    These are terrifying encounters with cryptids and the paranormal that didn't happen by accident… they began with one grave mistake that turned curiosity into a nightmare; from a terrifying shadow man in Indiana, to a real-life house haunting that inspired the movie "The Conjuring," a Bigfoot in Wyoming, a Skunk Ape in Florida and a demonic cryptid in California, these eyewitnesses made one critical mistake that changed everything.

  • Domestic Disturbance

    Our homes are meant to be sanctuaries - places where nothing can harm us. But sometimes, that sense of safety is shattered by something sinister. From "The Grassman" in rural Ohio, to the Spotsville Monster in Kentucky, to the haunted house of Amityville fame, the "Fouke Monster" in Indiana and a young girl's bizarre time slip, these witnesses have their sense of security smashed by the unexplained.
    Upcoming
  • Sightings in the Sky

    Featuring accounts of people who claim they were stalked, attacked or even taken by threats from beyond our world, because not all monsters come from the woods, sometimes they come from above.
    Upcoming
  • Monster Hotspots

    Hotspots of unexplained activity exist across America, specific regions where encounters with unknown creatures and supernatural forces repeat; from Skinwalker Ranch in Utah to the Mothman in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, these areas remain hotbeds of cryptid and paranormal activity. Other notable locations include the Texas Dogman Triangle, the Bigfoot of California's Klamath Mountains, and possession accounts in Pittsburgh.
    Upcoming
  • Cops v. Cryptids

    These are the chilling cases of law enforcement officers facing monsters no training could ever prepare them for; from the Beast of LBL to Bigfoot encounters in Oklahoma and Washington State, a shadow man in New Jersey and a bizarre half-man, half-goat in Colorado; first responders confront creatures that defy logic and warp reality.
    Upcoming
  • Trespassers Beware

    These are the chilling encounters of people who trespassed into the domain of the unexplained… and paid the price; from Bigfoot in Washington State and Maryland, a Skunk Ape in Florida, a malevolent spirit in Washington state and a dogman in Kansas, witnesses cross a boundary into the unknown… and face what awaits them on the other side.
