    11/9/25 - 50 States of Strange: New Mexico
    Nov 11 2025
    Tonight, we’re heading into the desert shadows of New Mexico, where ancient stories, modern mysteries, and strange sightings collide beneath an endless sky. We’ll explore UFO lore that didn’t start, or end, at Roswell, examine eerie petroglyphs that some believe depict visitors from somewhere else, and look at encounters tied to remote mesas, abandoned homesteads, and high desert military corridors. From whispered tales of shape-shifters to reports of silent craft over the plains, New Mexico holds some of the most compelling and unnerving phenomena in the American Southwest and tonight, we’re going there.

    In this chilling episode of '50 States of Strange,' we travel to the rugged mountains of Colorado to uncover the legends that still echo through its canyons and mines. From the eerie specter of Phantom Canyon Road and the ghostly convict said to haunt its curves, to the mysterious Tommyknockers who once warned—or tormented—miners deep beneath Cripple Creek, Colorado’s past is steeped in gold rush ambition and supernatural lore. These stories blur the line between history and haunting, revealing how the state’s most beautiful landscapes can also harbor its darkest mysteries.

    Rhode Island may be the smallest state in the nation, but its paranormal history looms large. From the chilling Mercy Brown vampire legend to the haunted halls of the Biltmore Hotel and the echoes of sorrow within the Ladd School, this coastal state hides a legacy of fear beneath its fog.

    Vampire. Ghosts. Cursed seas. Rhode Island has it all – and it’s waiting in the dark
