IN THIS EPISODE: Legend has it that a brutal lynching and a series of Satanic rituals transformed Goatman\u2019s Bridge in rural Texas into a paranormal hotspot. (The Haunting of Goatman\u2019s Bridge) *** Over six decades later, the brutal, unsolved murders at Lake Bodom continues to haunt Finland... and beyond. (The Lake Bodom Murders) *** A man finds his neighbor laying in the snow, frozen solid \u2013 yet somehow she survives. I\u2019ll tell you the miraculous story of Jean Hilliard! (The Hibernating Woman) *** We like to think that 21st Century medicine has brought us more into science and further away from superstition and magic \u2013 and that\u2019s mostly true, for the Western World. But in South Africa they\u2019ve not given up the chanting, the dancing, and in some cases\u2026 the sacrificing of human lives\u2026 all in the name of healing. (Muti Medicine: Ritual Human Sacrifice) *** For anyone who has used a ride-share service like Uber or Lyft, it\u2019s probably happened to you at least once. You\u2019re waiting on your ride to pick you up, you see a car coming your way and you think it\u2019s there for you \u2013 only to find out a few seconds later that it\u2019s not. One college girl had this same experience \u2013 only she got in to that wrong vehicle, and ended up being murdered for her mistake. (An Uber Mistake) *** The history of Lake Geneva, Wisconsin is wrapped up in Chicago\u2019s wealthiest families having their summer homes there. But even as early as 1912, when people were writing about the city, they said the second most significant thing about this town was the sanitariums. (The Lake Geneva Sanitariums) *** Some old documents were found recently that tell the story of the first time in recorded history that someone was struck by a meteor! (Hit By a Meteor)
