  • S2, E3: Hell On Earth

    Birmingham, AL may not be considered a "big city" - but it is the mother of big cities. After the Civil War, Birmingham became one of the lead producers of the iron that would be used to build New York & Chicago's skyscrapers. The largest manufacturer of this material was called Sloss Furnace, and the harrowing, violent stories that have risen from its past leave no question as to why it is now considered one of the most haunted locations in the United States.

  • S1, E5: Dire Wolves

    Winter in Chicago has always been a dangerous event - but never moreso then in the year 1838. During that year, the settlers found themselves being stalked by an otherworldly creature unlike anything they'd experienced before. These creatures left barely any tracks in their wake - but the trail of carnage and destruction has led modern researchers to identify them as "Dire Wolves".
