HOUR ONE: If you buy a used camper, knowing someone died in it, and with the bloodstain still clearly visible, you shouldn’t really be surprised later to find that it is haunted. (The Haunted Camper) *** A doppelganger is a strange creature that looks exactly like a real person, but is not that person’s twin. And seeing your doppelganger is considered a very bad omen. (Doppelgangers and Spirit Doubles) *** We’ll follow the life of George Barrington, who was well-known for two things: picking pockets and writing books. One led to the other you see – and resulted in the sighting of a phantom ship! (Phantom Ship) *** But first… one night about 60 years ago, physicist Enrico Fermi looked up into the sky and asked, “Where is everybody?” He was talking about aliens. So why haven’t we met them yet?

HOUR TWO: Whenever we see a pirate ship on television, cinema or in comic books we also see an extremely ancient symbol - the skull and crossbones. This however, was not a symbol of death – at least not in the beginning. (Hidden History of the Skull and Crossbones) *** Nazi camp guard Maria Mandl sent half a million women to their deaths – and loved every minute of it. (“The Beast” Maria Mandl)

SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: The dragon is one of the most well-known creatures in ancient mythology, and many cultures have this creature (or one of its related forms) in their folklore. One of the lesser known dragons is that of the zmaj, a dragon that can be found in Slavic folklore. (The Dragon Zmaj) SOURCES AND ESSENTIAL WEB LINKS…
