Episode 26 - Beginning in 2007, an individual was breaking into people's homes in the area of Tweed and Belleville in Ontario, Canada. They would pose in women’s and girl’s undergarments and steal them. The same thing began happening in the Ottawa suburb of Orleans, but these crimes started to escalate. Police believed that as this person kept evading authorities, they would become more emboldened with their crimes, sinking deeper into their fantasy. Their worst fears were realized. In 2009, a woman was found murdered in her home and another woman was reported missing a few months later. Police would eventually find their suspect, but it was the last person they expected. Colonel David Russell Williams, a highly regarded commander of Canada’s top Air Force base. How could someone with so much going for them in life commit such horrific crimes. What led him to turn such twisted fantasies into reality?

Episode 25 - We have all heard about or have seen Canada’s breathtaking wilderness. Thickly packed forests, towering mountain ranges, and beautiful turquoise rivers. This week's story takes us to the Nahanni Valley, a place that many of you have never heard of before but it is no exception to the beauty of Canadian wilderness. Situated in the Northwest Territories, this national park consists of forests, waterfalls, lakes, rivers, and four deep canyons. However, the beauty of this place is quite deceiving, the Nahanni Valley has a darker side. A side so full of unexplained deaths and disappearances it has been named as Canada’s most mysterious and cursed national park. Based on a string of decapitations that began in the late 1800’s and early 1900's it earned the name: Valley of the Headless Men. Does this place harbor a dark secret that people have fallen victim to or is there a more logical explanation?

July 8th, 1965. Air Traffic Control in Vancouver was relatively quiet, and everything appeared normal. All of a sudden, they received a transmission “Mayday, mayday, mayday” but from who? Little did they know, one of their passenger planes carrying 52 people on board had crashed in a forest near 100 Mile House in the Cariboo Regional District of British Columbia. An explosion inside the plane caused it to spiral towards the earth. But this explosion wasn’t accidental, it was a bomb. Who planted this bomb and why? Answers that have eluded investigators to this day making this one of Canada’s biggest unsolved cold cases. Did police have the right suspects, or did someone get away with mass murder undetected?

During the 1970’s, the cities of London, Ontario and Guelph, Ontario were plagued by a series of strange and horrifying murders. One woman was found to have been killed in her apartment but police were not able to find any signs of forced entry or even a struggle. Not long after, another woman was murdered in her apartment in an almost identical way. And then another. The police began to suspect a serial killer was in their midst. He was dubbed by the media as “The Bedroom Strangler”. But what would shock police even more, was when they found out the killer had already gotten away with murder, multiple times. The Bedroom Strangler would turn out to be one of Canada’s most violent and prolific serial killers. But how exactly did he pull it off without being detected?

November 29th, 1980 was a particularly dark and stormy night. A man from Duncan, British Columbia named Granger Taylor left a note for his parents to find. The note stated that he was about to embark upon a 42-month interstellar journey on an alien spacecraft and would return after his voyage was complete. Granger Taylor was never seen again by anyone, and this case remains one of Canada’s strangest and enduring mysteries. Did he really travel to outer space to explore the cosmos, or is there another earthly explanation for his disappearance?

But what if I told you that there was a case close to Ottawa near the small town of Carp, Ontario where there was actually evidence of a UFO. Prominent UFO investigators in Canada and the United States received a mysterious package from someone who called themself "Guardian”. The package contained a VHS tape. This tape is considered to be one of the most controversial pieces of UFO evidence in Canadian history. But is this Guardian tape the truth or just an elaborate hoax?
