I'm thinking of a T.V. show...

[Dustin Kesselberg]

I used to watch a T.V. show about the paranormal back in the 1990's. The show doesn't air anymore however I wanted to know the name of it. In the show it's host is a elderly bald man who has a very 'creepy' type of voice, a voice suited for those kinds of shows. The shows featured stuff including Bigfoot, Chupachopra, UFO's, Lochness monster, Zombies, etc. Does anyone know which one it was? The show wasn't a "fiction" show in the sense that there was no acting or anything(Though what it featured obviously wasn't real). Nothing like "Beyond belief:fact or fiction?" or "Psi Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal" or anything like that.

The obvious one is probably one of Arthur C Clarkes paranormal programs (Arthur C Clarkes Mysterious World etc), but he's obviously so famous you would probably know who he was.

Pretty cool voice and bald.

If it's one of them, they pretty much all had one of them crystal skulls in the opening credits.

It might have been however he didn't look much like Arthur C Clarke from my memory. I think the man was a little heavy set and had black hair and was part bald. I believe it aired in the 1990's and I think Arthur C Clarke had gray hair then.

Where would it have aired?

[Dustin Kesselberg]

It aired in the U.S.A. in the early-late 1990's.

What about "Sightings" it was during the 90's and actually restarted a couple of years ago for one season under a different name.

I think they were the ones that popularized the so called "Heartland Ghost" story.

No. It was a documentary type of T.V. show and featured no actors. Just a narrator.

Was it on one of the Cable channels or was it syndicated?

There was also "In Search Of..." with Lenard Nimoy....

I think when I started watching that, I stopped believing in the "paranormal".... :-)

Edited to add: Ooops. Missed the "1990's" reference. Sorry. In Search Of was the late 70's, early 80's....

I was thinking "Secrets of the Unknown" with Edward Mulhare myself...

Might have been the Australian TV Series "The Extraordinary" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Extraordinary):

They did re-edit them in the 90's for A&E.
