  • Terrifying & True | Black Dahlia Murder: Elizabeth Short, the 1947 Crime Scene & Suspects

    Sunken gold draws diver Trent Hall into a dangerous expedition on the Paraguay River. His partner promises a lost fortune aboard the Santa Rosa, but a scarred survivor and a frightened crew suggest the river has other things to offer. Unknown Broadcast presents “Bloodwaters,” an Escape adventure written by Tony Barrett and starring Vic Perrin. Greed, mistrust and piranha-infested water turn a treasure hunt into underwater survival horror. Trent knows he should not trust the man arranging the dive.

  • I Was Sent to a Small Town Where Strange Things Were Happening — A Vermont Church Demon

What waits beneath the church may be something else.

  • Terrifying & True | Brandon Lee & The Crow: Dummy Round, Blank Cartridge & Fatal Set Accident
    Brandon Lee’s death on the set of “The Crow” turned a fictional shooting into a real tragedy. Terrifying & True examines the 1993 accident, the difference between dummy ammunition and blanks, and the bullet left inside a revolver before the fatal scene. The episode follows the production failures behind the shooting and the performance Lee left behind, while separating the accident from stories of a family curse. A film built around returning from the dead became inseparable from the loss of its star. How did a staged scene become lethal? We're telling that story tonight.

  • Unknown Broadcast | The Party: Hollywood Murder, a Dead Husband and a Corpse in the Trunk
    A Hollywood premiere party is the worst possible place for a supposedly dead husband to reappear. Star Laura Lane is expected downstairs with the reporters, but the man in her bedroom knows the past she has hidden—and wants a share of her new life. Unknown Broadcast presents “The Party,” a Beyond Midnight drama that turns celebrity glamour into blackmail and murder. A house full of guests, a wardrobe trunk and the pressure to keep smiling leave little room for a mistake. This vintage noir thriller asks how far Laura will go to keep her carefully built image intact.

  • Four Murder and Monster Stories by Shane Migliavacca — Zombies, Cannibals & Obsession
    Four Shane Migliavacca horror stories turn survival, hospitality and desire into dangerous propositions. “Survivors” follows a girl raised to fear a zombie apocalypse; “The Dinner Guests” sends killers into the wrong home; “Incident at Isotope Inn” traps strangers in a desert motel; and “Be Mine” gives a secret admirer an alarming edge. Narrated by Henrique Couto, this two-hour author spotlight moves from isolation and cannibal terror to a hostage nightmare and Valentine's obsession. Each story leaves someone wondering whether the threat is outside—or already beside them.

  • Terrifying & True | Project Blue Book: 12,618 UFO Reports, 701 Unexplained & Cold War Secrecy
    Project Blue Book investigated 12,618 UFO reports, leaving 701 unidentified when the U.S. Air Force closed the program. Terrifying & True follows the Cold War search for explanations through radar contacts, witness accounts and disputed sightings. From the Washington, D.C., incidents to “swamp gas,” the episode explores the gap between official conclusions and public suspicion. Unidentified reports did not establish alien visitors, but incomplete evidence left plenty of room for questions. What did the investigators learn—and what remained beyond their reach? We're telling that story tonight.
