Strange But True?

Strange But True?

"Strange But True" was a British supernatural documentary television series presented by Michael Aspel, which explored supernatural phenomena and unexplained mysteries. It was produced by LWT and broadcast in the United Kingdom on ITV between 1993 and 1997. A pilot episode in May 1993 proved extremely popular and led to four series, including the third which was given the title of Strange But True? Encounters. The series explored a number of aspects of unexplained activity from ghosts and poltergeists to near death experiences to vampires and aliens.

One episode featured an unexplained mystery of communication from aliens in the year 2109. Other episodes featured mysteries into "phantom hitchhikers" and 11th century monks in haunted castles. The story consultant for "Strange But True" was Jenny Randles.

In 1994, a companion book of the same name was released by Peter A. Hough and Jenny Randles, ISBN 0749914599.

The Paranormal Channel which started on 9 June 2008 on Sky Digital shows repeats of the series.
