b'IN THIS EPISODE: The third Conjuring film is based on the true story of Arne Cheyenne Johnson who claimed he committed murder because a demon made him do it. But how much truth is there to that story? (The Devil Made Him Do It) *** A tribe living in the Amazon Jungle tells about a strange encounter they had with an extraterrestrial and a strange beam of light. (That Time An Alien Visited the Kayapo People) *** An elderly man decides he needs to hire someone to help him care for his property\\u2026 but who he chose would bring only death and a mystery that still goes unsolved. (The Wonnangatta Station Murders) *** Lizard people. Reptilians. It\\u2019s one of the strangest and most controversial conspiracy theories in existence \\u2013 and we\\u2019ll look at some of the history behind the idea, as well as what science says about the possibility of it being a reality. (The Myths and Modern Science of Reptilians) *** A nun who wasn\\u2019t very good at being a nun ended up being a nun without a head. (The Headless Nun of Watton Priory) *** We\\u2019ve all been asked the question, \\u201cHow do you want to die when it comes your time?\\u201d Aside from the boring but realistic answer of \\u201cquietly in my sleep\\u201d some would prefer to go out in a blaze of glory, doing something heroic to save a person or persons from imminent doom. But of course that does not happen for most of us. In fact, there are probably more people going out in a blaze of stupidity! (Dumbest Deaths) *** In 1995 Mike Marcum got it in his head to build a time machine. Did he succeed? We may never know \\u2013 because he disappeared without a trace. (The Mike Marcum Time Machine)
