IN THIS EPISODE: It's bad enough when you have a scary, eerie experience, but it's even worse when nobody believes you, insisting that\xa0you're either lying or just imagining\xa0things. Whether you hear voices calling to you at night or come face-to-face with something that's not of this world, it is definitely better when at least one person will back you up,\xa0or else you might question your own sanity. (Why Won\u2019t Anyone Believe Me?) *** People have been chasing Bigfoot for more than sixty years. \xa0Yet still, we have no definitive, physical proof of its existence. \xa0Could the explanation be that Bigfoot is visiting us from another dimension? \xa0(Interdimensional Sasquatch) *** Haunt\xaded by a shadowy spir\xadit crea\xadture which they say lives in\xadside their home, a Gas\xadpar\xadil\xadlo fam\xadi\xadly is now seek\xading spir\xadi\xadtu\xadal help to re\xadmove their un\xadwant\xaded guest. \xa0(Spirt Creature Tortures Family) *** Coyotes are of the dog family and are formidable and deadly hunters. But could they also have the ability to shape-shift? \xa0(Coyotes and the Chupacabra) *** Shortly after the terrorist attack on New York on September 11th, 2001 \u2013 another terrorist attack began. \xa0This time it was targeting public figures. \xa0The weapon of choice was anthrax, and the method of delivery was the U.S. Post Office. \xa0(Who Sent the Anthrax Letters?) *** A very strange case involving time travel and power to change timelines was reported in 1977s. The case caused a sensation world-wide. Had Sid Hurwich the creator of the time-altering machine really found a way to alter historical events? \xa0(The Machine That Could Freeze Time) *** In 1888, London was terrorized by the serial murderer of women who called himself Jack the Ripper. \xa0Four years later another Jack came into existence. \xa0This one murdering men \u2013 and this time in New York City. \xa0(Jack the Slasher)
