HOUR ONE: Seances and spirit boards have a long history in cultures around the world, however, not every attempt at communication with the afterlife goes as planned. Even experienced mediums may run into an unpleasant spirit from time to time, and those who have no experience whatsoever may find themselves overwhelmed by a strong-willed entity with an inclination to do harm. We\\u2019ll look at numerous examples of seances and Ouija board sessions that went horrifyingly wrong, and one particular demon who seems to show up more often than others that should scare the hell out of you. Perhaps this episode will serve as a cautionary tale to leave the dead to rest in peace.

HOUR TWO: People keep reporting sightings of a giant five-foot long worm lurking in the Gobi desert. Witnesses say it\\u2019s armed with spikes, it spits venom, and if you get too close it can even take you down with an electric shock. It\\u2019s known as the Mongolian Death Worm. If you\\u2019ve not heard of it, it\\u2019s because no one to date has yet been able to photograph it. So does that mean it doesn\\u2019t exist? Or is it just too fast to capture on film? (The Mongolian Death Worm) *** Mount Pentelicus near Athens, Greece, is where the marble was cut to build the Parthenon. But more recently it has a more sinister reputation \\u2013 for being haunted. Particularly around a certain cave known as \\u201cDavelis Cave.\\u201d (The Penteli Cave Enigma) *** For six years, Fritz Haarmann used his position as a police informant to hide in plain sight while he carried out at least 24 grisly murders as the "Vampire of Hanover." He was also called by some \\u201cThe Butcher of Hanover\\u201d. But neither nickname given to him by the public comes remotely close to describing how evil the man truly was, or how gruesome his crimes actually were. (The Butcher Vampire) *** AND MORE!
=====SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: We look at the flip side of seances \\u2013 the ones that aren\\u2019t real at all \\u2013 masquerading mediums, imitation investigators, and dubious demonologists! (Masquerading Mediums, Imitation Investigators, and Dubious Demonologists) *** Do you have people in your lives that you can\\u2019t stand? A co-worker perhaps, or a family member, or a grumpy neighbor. You may call them \\u201ctoxic\\u201d, but there was a lady who was so noxious that people couldn\\u2019t literally stand her. Her name was Gloria Ramirez. (The Toxic Woman) *** Plus BLOOPERS!
