IN THIS EPISODE: Stories of \u201cwild men\u201d\u2013people who live ferally in nature as any wild animal would do\u2013have been a part of our myths and legends since the dawn of civilization. But they don\u2019t live just in ancient lore\u2026 according to the reports, they are being seen even today, despite the modern and technological world surrounding them. (Wild Men In The Hills) *** In 1974 the Smurl family began a 15-year period of terror by an unknown entity. (The Smurl Family Tormentors) *** Weirdo family member John Parish discovers something strange going on in his home\u2019s wood shop. (Woodworking Ghost) *** One of the problems with cryptids such as Bigfoot or Sasquatch is that they leave very little evidence behind of their existence. Their cousin the Yowie leaves even less evidence behind \u2013 on the verge of none. But that doesn\u2019t mean there isn\u2019t any evidence. (Tracks of the Kempsey Creature)
