Within The Mist

The gates are locked. The tourists are gone. The ravens fall silent. Tonight, step past the daylight laughter of the Beefeaters and into the thousand-year night that still owns the Tower of London. In our latest episode, Gary and GoldieAnn lead you across Tower Green where Anne Boleyn walks at the exact hour of her execution… carrying her head like a lantern beneath her arm. Where blind, sixteen-y...

There is a valley carved by ice and time, where the South Nahanni River snakes through canyons deeper than any grave... and where men go in with dreams of gold and come out (when they come out at all) missing their heads. This is the Valley of the Headless Men. For over a century, prospectors have vanished here. Cabins burn with no trace of fire. Skeletons are found minus the skull. Gold pans sit...

Join host Gary and the Bantering Banshees, Jill and Steph, as they descend into Ireland’s most mournful legend. From Lady Fanshawe’s 1642 moonlit terror at Ballyallia Castle—where a red-haired phantom keened “Ahone! Ahone!” just hours before an O’Brien kinsman’s death—to the famine-ravaged Corofin Workhouse, where a ragged wraith paced the fog, heralding mass graves. Is she Aibhill, fairy queen of...

In January 1996, the sleepy Brazilian town of Varginha became ground zero for terror from the stars. A crippled cigar-shaped craft plummets from the sky, spewing sulfurous smoke and unearthly debris.

Military police grapple a wounded creature into their trunk, i...

Set in 1817 Adams, Tennessee, sinister events plagued the Bell family on their Red River farm.

The episode explores the entity’s malevolent powers, inclu...

Beneath the mist-shrouded peaks of Appalachia, where coal dust clings to the air, a sound haunts the darkness: tap-tap-tap.  Not the creak of timbers or the drip of water, but the deliberate knocks of the Tommyknockers—gnome-like spirits of the mines, both saviors and tricksters.  For centuries, miners have whispered of these wrinkled imps, their tiny picks striking warnings or weaving m...

As twilight blends into the ancient hemlocks of the Pennsylvania Wilds, you wander off the beaten path... deeper into the mist-shrouded silence. A faint cry pierces the gloom—not wind, not animal, but a guttural weeping that swells like a heartbroken storm.

In the silence of Buenos Aires' La Recoleta Cemetery, the air carries the scent of wilted jasmine and aged stone.

The night of January 14, 2002, started out peaceful and serene with the only sounds piercing the darkness being the rhythmic clacks of steel wheels on rails. A CSX coal train, laden with 16,000 tons of black gold, rumbled through the wilderness from Russell to Shelbiana, its dual locomotives cutting through the darkness.  Little did the crew know that this routine haul would thrust them...

Orbs, those floating balls of light, have flickered through time like elusive fireflies in the dark.  As far back as ancient folklore, they've been whispered about in Celtic myths from Ireland, where they were often seen as the playful manifestations of fairies—trickster spirits darting through misty glens and ancient stone circles.  Fast forward to the 19th century, and orbs began appea...

The summer of 1961 was heavy with heat and whispers of the strange.
