World's Most Unexplained

Science is powerful, but there is much it can't explain.

And when people see, hear or believe something that is not explained, science finds itself trying to prove things don't exist.

How, for example, is it possible that some people have stigmata - the wounds inflicted on Jesus, with no apparent medical or scientific explanation?

How can these wounds disappear and reappear?

Why, 40 years after his reported death, do sightings of Elvis Presley happen every year?

Was Mozart poisoned by his arch rival Antonio Salieri?

In some cases, despite all of our modern technology and scientific advancements, some mysteries are still left unsolved.

World's Most Unexplained investigates some of the greatest and most enduring mysteries of history and life on Earth and beyond.

Using new interviews, expert analysis, archive footage and high-quality reconstructions, the programmes discover and uncover, investigate and suggest... but can never fully explain.

In the series premiere, "Is Stigmata Real?": An Italian priest claimed to have suffered from stigmata, bodily markings resembling the crucifixion wounds of Jesus Christ.

Experts investigate whether the phenomenon is supernatural or a religious hoax to gain followers.

In the second episode of the weekend double bill, "The Hoffa Mystery": James "Jimmy" Hoffa disappeared from a Michigan restaurant on 30 July, 1975.

Experts investigate whether the controversial union leader's disappearance is linked to the mob or if he went missing on his own accord.

From infamous hotbeds like Gettysburg and Salem to small towns with turbulent pasts that fueled generations of ghost stories, Haunted Towns explores places that played key roles in the darker chapters of American history, where battle, disaster and injustice have condemned unsettled spirits to every street corner.

Follow TWC - consisting of Chris, Doogie, Porter and Brannon - as they interview witnesses, investigate hotspots using the latest ghost-hunting technology and follow new leads until they can pinpoint who is haunting the town and why.

But the team isn't just about collecting evidence. Their m.o. is to find truth - if any - in the legends that have shaped each town's paranormal notoriety.

In the Season 2 premiere, "Voodoo on the Bayou": The Tennessee Wraith Chasers head down to Louisiana's paranormally charged Manchac Swamp.

They're the first team ever to investigate the site of America's largest slave revolt, and they want to find out what's stirring up spirits over 200 years later.
