Mysterious Encounters
Coming this Fall
Mysterious Encounters is a dramatic investigative series following the ongoing phenomenon of legendary animal sightings across North America. Cryptozoologist Autumn Williams and her team of researchers will travel throughout North America investigating eyewitness accounts and existing physical evidence.
The encounters team will be laying high tech traps, e.g. thermal and infrared cameras, motion activated cameras, surveillance balloons, pheromone traps, sonar, long range call blasters, tracking dogs, etc. in the hopes of gathering new evidence to either support or refute the eyewitness reports.
The shows are driven by compelling eyewitness reports, reenactments and sometimes frightening and dangerous expeditions.
Upcoming Episodes...
Skunk Ape
These creatures have been reported by Northern Florida residents for over a century. Described as Orangutan-like, red in color and having a foul odor, this creature sticks to the gator and snake infested swamps near Pensacola, FL. Two intriguing photographs will be examined by experts to see if there is any truth to the claims.
Alabama Booger Monster
Southwestern Alabama is reported to be the home of a biped creature that likes to visit a particular family on a regular basis. Described as man-like but hairy and very tall, this creature left behind a clump of hair after it allegedly bumped its head on a tin roof. The hair sample will be analyzed to see if it matches any known animal. The results are conclusive and shocking.
Louisiana Swamp Creature
In the summer of 2002, a creature was hit by a speeding car, yet was able to run off into the woods. Police suspected it was an escaped convict and gave chase with dogs and horses. Though they saw it, they were unable to catch it...how could an injured human get away from the dogs and officers? Could it be the legendary Swamp Creature? Numerous eyewitnesses describe a similar creature. The Encounters team set a high-tech trap in the latest hot spot.
The Creature of Whitehall
It has been nearly 30 years since White Hall, NY police officers were called to a disturbance involving an unknown animal. When they arrived they drew their weapons on a very large ape-like creature standing only 30 feet from their cruiser. Unsure of what it was, they allowed the creature to walk off into the forest. Recent sightings and large footprints bring the Encounters team to investigate. Surprising new evidence is found.
Cumberland Creature
The rolling hills and picturesque dairy farms of northwestern Wisconsin are the front to this mystery. Piercing screams from an unknown animal haunt the locals. Hidden cameras and sophisticated recording equipment are deployed at the epicenter of these reports, and existing hair and footprint evidence is examined.
