Shadows of History

Each episode is a trilogy of "real" stories supposedly from reputable newspapers from the past, seemingly from late 1800's - early 1900's. Do not come here for serious paranormal investigations. Do come for Robert Englund's narration, the campy acting, & plausible stories. It's a fun series if you're into this kind of thing.

Honestly, it's rather pathetic. From the posturing host to the hokey stories, I can't find anything positive to say about it.

The first series, one year previous, wasn't that good either. You'd think they would have learned from the reviews it garnered, but I guess not.

Why did the choose Robert Englund to host the show? He's really awful at it, not sure why he continues with the silly posturing.

This is a great show!! Look forward to watching it every time it comes on!! Keep up the great work Mr. Englund!!

I really like the show!!! I'm not sure if I'm dreaming but I thought this should be season 2??? I watched a bunch of episodes last year... Not sure what the tv networks are doing? Anyone else confused as I am? From what I see it is new episodes though!!!

Such a disappointment. I'm a huge cryptozoology fan and I had such high hopes for this show but it failed so badly. Cheesy doesn't even come close to describing how poorly these stories are presented and the fact that the details of the stories don't even match historical accounts is really slack. Just sensationalised entertainment being passed off as something more.
