The year was 1945, and amid the bustling naval activity along the eastern coast of Florida, five Avenger torpedo bombers, known collectively as Flight 19, took off on a routine training mission. The pilots, led by Lieutenant Charles C. Taylor, were tasked with completing a navigation and bombing exercise known as "Navigation Problem No. 1." They were to fly east to practice a bombing run and head back to the airfield. The entire mission should have lasted just over two hours. But Flight 19 never returned.

For several months in 1938, a regular terraced house in the United Kingdom became the site of supernatural experiences. Alma Fielding found herself at the centre of those events, this transformed her life, but the cost was life changing.

Nandor Fodor attempted to understand, going beyond the balance of genuine or fake. His approach was ahead of its time, and recognised that psychological dimensions deserved serious study, regardless of whether supernatural forces were actually involved.

Was Alma Fielding genuinely haunted by spirits, was her unconscious mind manifesting activity?

November 24, 1971, and Dan Cooper sits onboard the Northwest Orient Airlines Flight 305, during a cold Thanksgiving Eve.

It is about 3pm and Cooper orders a bourbon and soda, paying in cash and while doing so, passes a note to the flight attendant.

The attendant casually puts the note in her pocket without reading the content suspecting it to be the phone number of a businessman of whom she has drawn attention.

Upon sighting she hasn’t read the note, Cooper politely states; “Miss. You’d better look at that note. I have a bomb” and opens his briefcase.

The fate of the Mary Celeste was anything but ordinary. What should have been a straightforward journey turned into one of the most baffling mysteries in maritime history. In the late autumn of 1872, a sturdy merchant ship named the Mary Celeste set out from New York Harbor. Captained by Benjamin Briggs, a highly respected seaman, the ship was also maintained by an experienced crew. The voyage was expected to have been uneventful. However, the events that took place were anything but. Later discovered to be adrift in the ocean, the captain, the crew, had all gone with no explanation.
