Freak Encounters

Description: Be careful who you work for. "Freak Encounters" lays that lesson on thick by staging run-ins with unexplained creatures. Ever see the Mothman while working for a highway crew, or how about coming into contact with the Bigfoot-like Genoskwa while filming a wildlife documentary? Each episode highlights one such encounter, with the catch being there is an unwitting participant who was "hired" by these companies just in time to see the freaky beings up close.
