Actor and sci-fi-series legend William Shatner hosts an investigative series that explores some of the weirdest and most baffling stories around the world. Each episode features three of the bizarre stories, and Shatner works through each of them in an attempt to find hidden logic and scientific meanings to explain what appears to be unexplainable. Some of the oddities that are investigated include paranormal phenomena, medical mysteries, strange creatures, natural disasters and monster attacks.

Three stories of mysterious creatures that are seemingly half-man and half-beast: a New Jersey woman and her son come face to face with the legendary Jersey Devil; a sleepy South Carolina town is terrorized by a giant reptile; in Wisconsin, a bloodthirsty werewolf-like creature appears on a remote country road.

A man is caught in the collapse of the World Trade Center; a freak rail accident slices a man in half; a hippo attacks a safari guide in Zimbabwe.

Three incredible stories where the human body reaches beyond the limits of modern medicine: An Arkansas adrenaline junkie survives a horrific skydiving accident; in upstate New York, a man is vaporized in a fire that leaves investigators with a terrifying question; and, a supercharged British schoolgirl is seemingly able to harness electrical power.

Three ancient artifacts that could turn the history of the world upside down: In Mexico, a bizarrely-shaped skull may prove aliens once walked the planet; ancient stone carvings of dinosaurs could rewrite the story of evolution; and, an ancient wooden model may be proof that ancient Egyptians invented modern flight.
