In 1987 Chicago, two late-night television broadcasts are hijacked by a masked figure spouting nonsense and taunts through distorted audio. No demands. No explanation. And no trace of who did it. Despite FBI and FCC investigations, the identity of the hijacker remains a mystery. Was it a prank, a protest—or something more calculated?
In the quiet town of Niobrara, Wyoming, a late-night television broadcast is suddenly hijacked by disturbing imagery and cryptic messages. Viewers report nausea, anxiety—and faces they can’t forget. As panic spreads and authorities search for answers, the truth behind the broadcast remains elusive. Was it a hoax, a warning, or something far more unsettling?
In the coastal town of Rockport, Massachusetts, the legend of the “Gray Watcher” haunts the cliffs during storms. When architect Mary Hughes moves into the old Straitsmouth Island Lighthouse to restore it, she dismisses the town’s warnings—until strange events begin to unfold.
On a quiet Kentucky morning in 1876, something bizarre fell from the sky. Dubbed "The Kentucky Meat Shower," this mysterious event sparked curiosity, skepticism, and countless theories, ranging from the scientific to the supernatural.
