IN THIS EPISODE: Some believe them to be ghosts, others feel they are creatures or even humans from a different dimension. Still others believe they are demonic entities. Whatever the truth about what they are, the one thing everyone agrees about is that an encounter with a shadow person is undeniably terrifying. (Terrifying True Stories Of Shadow People) *** The townsfolk of Beaver County, Pennsylvania saw something very strange in 1966 \u2013 and now, so many decades later, it\u2019s just as much of a mystery as it was the day the encounter occurred. (The Unsolved Sighting in 1966) *** Some are beloved favorites like \u201cThe Wizard of Oz\u201d, others you may never have seen, like Atuk. Some are dark in tone like \u201cPoltergeist\u201d, or heroic like the first Superman movie starring Christopher Reeve. But one thing all of these films and the others I\u2019ll share in this episode have in common is that they are all supposedly cursed. (Infamously Cursed Films)
