Ep 8. Guam Zombies / Fangalobolo

In the eighth episode of the fourth season of Destination Truth, the team headed to Guam to investigate reports of zombie-like creatures known as Taotaomona. These creatures are said to be the spirits of ancestors who haunt the island and are known to be fiercely protective of their land. The team also investigated the legend of the Fangalobolo, a strange creature with long fingers that is said to lurk in the forests of Madagascar.

The episode begins with host Josh Gates and his team arriving in Guam, where they are greeted by local experts who provide them with information about the Taotaomona. The team is then led on a hike through the dense jungle to an area where the creatures are said to be active. As they search for signs of the Taotaomona, they experience a number of eerie encounters, including strange noises and unexplained movements in the trees.

Later, the team meets with locals who share their own stories of encountering the Taotaomona. One woman describes seeing a figure standing outside her house late at night, which vanished as soon as she turned on the light. Another man tells the team about a group of hikers who were chased out of the forest by an unseen entity. These encounters only add to the team's determination to uncover the truth behind the legends.

The investigation takes an unexpected turn when the team encounters a group of military personnel who claim to have seen the Taotaomona themselves. They bring the team to a remote military base where they claim to have captured one of the creatures on camera. The footage is grainy and hard to make out, but the team is intrigued by the possibility that they may have finally found some concrete evidence of the mysterious creatures.

The team also travels to Madagascar to investigate the legend of the Fangalobolo. They meet with local villagers who tell them that the creature is said to have long fingers and a snakelike head, and that it can climb trees and move silently through the forest. The team sets up camp in the jungle and begins searching for the Fangalobolo, using thermal cameras and other equipment to try to capture evidence of its existence.

As they search for the Fangalobolo, the team encounters a number of other strange creatures, including giant millipedes and a rare species of lemur. These discoveries remind them of the incredible diversity of life on Earth, and encourage them to keep searching for answers to the many mysteries that still exist.

Throughout the episode, Josh Gates and his team approach their investigations with a healthy dose of skepticism, always looking for rational explanations for the phenomena they encounter. At the same time, they remain open to the possibility that there may be more to these legends than meets the eye. Through their investigations, they hope to shed light on some of the world's strangest and most fascinating mysteries.
