In the early 2000s, a man’s outside security camera records a truly unprecedented sight. A completely peculiar, seemingly other-worldly being, consisting solely of a pair of glowing white legs and a tiny head, is waddling across the man’s front yard. The being’s physical appearance is like no other creature ever recorded. But with the man swearing the footage is real, and a second video emerging later which appears to back up his story, just what could it be? Is it an alien, a spirit… or something else? In this eerie episode, Lora and Barry turn their attention to the Fresno ...

Bedbug infestations are not just a modern problem—these pests have been with early human ancestors for 245,000 years, causing problems long before the invention of beds.
