==========
HOUR ONE: Did the light of Heaven shine supernaturally onto the body of boxer Lute McCarty when he died in the ring?  Thousands of witness say yes – as does the photographic evidence.  (Did The Light of Heaven Shine Down On Boxer Luther McCarty?) *** Anna Baker’s father would not allow her to marry the man she loved – but that didn’t stop her from wearing her wedding dress numerous times before her death.  (Anna Baker’s Wedding Dress) *** The scary folks over at The Graveyard Shift have gathered some creepy stories from real people who have survived some terrifying encounters with the strange and paranormal.  (People Who Survived Real Life Horror Stories)
==========
HOUR TWO: It’s easy to a consider single witnesses of a big hairy creature as mistaken or confused, or even fraudulent, as if a practical joke.  But add a second witness to the same sighting, and suddenly the encounter becomes a lot more believable. (The Creature of Coffs Harbour) *** Did Mother Damnable—aka Mary Ann Boyer, Seattle's original taskmistress —really turn to stone after her death in 1873? (The Madam Who Turned To Stone) *** Ufology might seem like a fringe science — but it's a fringe science our government knows all too well. (Project Blue Book)

SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: Life in Victorian times was considerably more dangerous than now, if the newspaper reports of the time are anything to go by. (The Art of Dying in Victorian Times)
