In this week’s main episode, we step into the eerie silence of Hoia Baciu Forest – a twisted expanse of woodland on the outskirts of Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Often dubbed the “Bermuda Triangle of Transylvania,” this forest has become one of the most infamous paranormal hotspots in the world. From tales of a shepherd and 200 sheep vanishing without a trace, to reports of ghostly apparitions, mysterious burns, and UFO sightings, Hoia Baciu is a nexus of strange phenomena.

For this haunted episode we journey through two haunted sites. First, we enter Jeruk Purut Cemetery in Jakarta – a graveyard infamous for its headless pastor ghost said to roam the grounds with a lantern, eternally searching for his misplaced grave. Locals warn that the spirit only appears to odd-numbered groups, and many visitors have left the cemetery with scratches or inexplicable illnesses. Then, we travel to the Swahili coast to explore Fort Jesus in Mombasa, Kenya – a centuries-old Portuguese fortress layered with the horrors of colonial violence, torture chambers, and spirits said to wail through the coral stone walls. From phantom priests to haunted battlements, these tales reveal how trauma and legend linger long after death.

In early June 1994, 23-year-old Christene Skubish and her 3-year-old son, Nick, vanished near Bullion Bend on U.S. Route 50 in the Sierra Nevada. After days of searching turned up nothing, a local motorist, Deborah Hoyt, reported seeing a naked young woman lying on the roadside in the dead of night. The tip prompted a daytime search that uncovered their vehicle—Christene was dead, but Nick was miraculously alive after five days alone. The vision of a nude woman, repeatedly reported by strangers, had seemingly led rescuers to them.
