==========
HOUR ONE: Ever heard of Shadrack Ireland? No, it\\u2019s not a place \\u2013 it\\u2019s a person, actually. A preacher \\u2013 and one of the most bizarre religious leaders ever to walk the soil of New England. And as strange as his religious practices and teachings were \\u2013 his death was just as crazy. (The Perfect Man) *** Lisa woke up to find her boyfriend staring at her. When she asked him what was wrong, he replied, \\u201cI\\u2019m going to kill you and drink your blood.\\u201d Is it possible that the film, \\u201cInterview With The Vampire\\u201d made Daniel Sterlin turn into a real-life bloodthirsty monster? (Interview With The Wannabee Vampire) *** Gerald Foos built a secret passageway in his motel \\u2013 not to smuggle drugs or store weapons, but so he could spy on his motel guests having sex. And it gets even creepier than that. (Peeping Tom Motel) *** A family loses two children by apparent poisoning\\u2026 and then the mother\\u2019s death two months later under the same mysterious circumstances. Obviously there was a murderer living amongst the family, or somewhere in the town. Wasn\\u2019t there? (The Mystery of the Garrett Family\\u2019s Tragic Deaths)
==========
HOUR TWO: Is it possible that in 1927 we picked up signals from an artificial satellite sent to our planet by an extraterrestrial intelligence? Some believe the evidence is overwhelming. (Mystery of the Alien Satellite) *** When a great famine struck Europe in 1314, mothers abandoned their children and in some cases, even ate them. Could this be the gruesome beginnings of the story we know as Hansel and Gretel? (The Grimm Reality Behind Hansel and Gretel) *** But first\\u2026 I doubt there\\u2019s a single person over the age of twelve living in the modernized world that hasn\\u2019t at least heard of Bigfoot. A large portion of them have probably heard it\\u2019s other name \\u2013 Sasquatch \\u2013 as well. But far fewer are familiar with his even more reclusive Siberian cousin: the Russian Bigfoot that\\u2019s we\\u2019ve come to know as the Yeti, or more fondly\\u2026 the Abominable Snowman. We\\u2019ll begin with that story! (Why They Call This Snowman Abominable)
==========
SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: In 1938, stories of a "killer ghost" began to be told in eastern Kentucky. Even though no one ever saw this malevolent apparition, it was said to have caused five very similar and unexplained deaths. (The Ghost That Killed With Chains)
