In this episode of "A Study of Strange," we venture into the Santa Lucia Mountains of California to explore the legend of the Dark Watchers: silhouette type beings that do nothing but observe. These eerie figures have been a part of Californian folklore for hundreds of years, leaving many to wonder about their origins and reality.
