The visions. I'd had them all my life. They're tricky to read, like tarot cards. Vague sometimes, like dreams. When I was a kid, I would tell my mom, and she had this way of pretending it was normal while still keeping it secret. By the time I became aware that my ability was unique, I knew how to hide it. I started to teach myself how to control it, and soon enough, how to use it.

A young detective has the uncanny ability to see into the core of a person.

The kingdom was renowned for the quality of their spider silk thread and the many textiles that were made from it, gowns, cloaks, rope, and even armor. The reason for the quality and abundance of the silk was a large, but benign, spider that lived only, it seemed, in the kingdom named for it, Tortanak.

Lucine's mother mastered spider silk and her stepmother mastered apples. To save herself and her kingdom, she too will need a talent to master.

The secret ingredient in the biomaterial that had been used to treat, to cure, to advance the five volunteers lying in one of the most advanced burn wards in the world, was neither love nor magic. But anyone might have thought so, the way the stuff brought those folks back to life.

A scientist invents an extraordinary biomaterial that can protect humans from the ravages of space travel, but the price for unlocking its potential is far too high.

The surveyors found it when they went looking for a spot to put up a commercial office building. It was almost intact. Only the roof was partially collapsed. The basement was filled with dirt. There were unusual scorch marks on the walls and floors of almost every room of the sixteen-room house. Unusual in that they didn't seem to be caused by fire. The ceilings of each room—and only the ceilings—were covered with vines that once must have been ropey but in the present were petrified to the hardness of a twigs and branches.

Surveyors uncover a buried mansion and wake a sleeping ghost. What happens next?

Find out in this episode.

Three beautiful sisters were they, in those days. They had eyes the color of jade with shades of honey flecked within. They had hair like golden silk. Their lovely smiles were made lovelier still by their dazzling white teeth. As might be expected with beauty so bold, they were envied by many. They were coveted by many. Their mother fretted and feared over that envy and longing. She did not want to lock up her daughters for fear of the world. But one day, her fears came true.

Three sisters are cursed by a jilted suitor by an undying and forbidden hunger.

She had told the police, of course. But she hadn't told them the whole truth. They wouldn't have believed her if she did. They wouldn't have filed the police report that she hoped would scare people away from buying the house after she discovered that something sinister had already claimed it.

Perhaps if she'd known that some detectives were open to ideas so out of the box, they were out of the reality in which that box existed, she would have tried to work with such a detective. Maybe that couple would still be alive.

A woman with super-hearing joins forces with a paranormal consultant to capture an invisible killer, but they find themselves up against a far more powerful and unknowable foe.

It happened like this. On the first morn, the children who typically woke first anyway, began their day without knowing anything was amiss. As the morning hours passed, more and more children woke to a strangely quiet town. More and more children found their grown guardians still slumbering: mothers, fathers, grand-folks, aunts, uncles, teachers, trade masters, even the town leaders. Even some of those who had just passed over the cusp of adulthood, like Sig's older brother. All were asleep and could not be roused. The children tried shaking, shouting, dousing with water, pricking and pinching. Nothing worked.

With all the grown folk trapped in sleep, the children of Gorgulya tend their town, and soon are called to defend it from a nightmarish enemy.

Will they succeed in waking the grown folk and in saving their town?

Find out in this episode.

His best friend insisted that he go see a therapist. Jorge was surprised and disappointed because his buddy was a believer in unusual phenomena, and if there was anyone who wouldn't think he was off his rocker, it would be Bradley. But he said they had to be sure it wasn't all in Jorge's head. They had to be sure, despite the demonstration Jorge had provided, that there really was something otherworldly going on.

Jorge Montoya has developed an unusual condition. He feels the presence of missing limbs where there shouldn't be any limbs at all.

What's going on with him?
