VisionTV’s Supernatural
Investigator is on the case
The Antichrist lives among us, preparing for the battle of Armageddon. Sunken stones off the coast of Florida point the way to the lost city of Atlantis. Mayan priests used mysterious crystal skulls to communicate with the spirit world. And the great buildings of Washington, D.C. conceal the symbols of a Masonic master plan.
Crazy ideas? Maybe. But a surprising number of North Americans believe in these and other manifestations of the paranormal – from reincarnation and remote viewing to astrology and alien abduction.
Supernatural Investigator, a new documentary anthology series from VisionTV, takes a critical look at such otherworldly phenomena in an attempt to separate fact from fiction.
Award-winning Canadian science fiction author Robert J. Sawyer (Mindscan, Hominids) hosts this 17-part series, which airs on Wednesdays at 10:30 pm ET/7:30 pm PT.
The program airs right after I Prophesy: The Future Revealed, another new documentary anthology series from VisionTV.
Produced for VisionTV by some of Canada’s leading independent production companies, the Supernatural Investigator documentaries bring rigorous real-life scrutiny to the murky world of paranormal phenomena. Each half-hour episode follows an expert investigator as he or she searches for the truth behind so-called supernatural happenings.
Wednesdays, 10:30 pm ET / 7:30 pm PT
These investigators – among them futurist Mac Tonnies, archaeologist Joel Palka, science writer and adventurer Jeff Warren, magician Jeremy Bennett, and musician Tara Slone – confront unearthly mysteries with a clear and critical eye: Have extraterrestrials visited this planet? Did vengeful demons hound a Canadian journalist to his death? Why did the U.S. government experiment with ESP during the Cold War? And did the world’s greatest escape artist somehow slip the bonds of death?
Joan Jenkinson is the Executive Producer and concept creator of Supernatural Investigator.
