IN THIS EPISODE: In 1803, London was seized by pure terror, as sightings of a macabre-looking ghost haunted the area of Hammersmith. It would eventually end in bloody murder and set a legal precedent for crimes committed in self-defense. (The London Haunting That Led To Murder) *** To this day, a police notice stands on the wall inside 50 Berkeley Square that proclaims that the upper floors cannot be used for any purpose. May all who see it heed its warning. (The Haunting of 50 Berkeley Square) *** Weirdo family member Cassie Murphy relates what happened when she took her young daughter sight seeing \u2013 in a ghost town. (You Are Not My Mom) *** No other epidemic or pandemic has claimed as many lives as the Spanish Flu,\xa0not even the Black Death in the 14th century or AIDS in the 20th century \u2014 100 years later, why have we forgotten the deadliest pandemic in history? (The Forgotten Year of Death) *** Strange creatures have been reported being seen in deserts all around the world \u2013 creatures almost but not quite humanlike. What are they, and how do they survive in these barren wildernesses? (Desert Humanoids)
