Outrageous Acts of Science Season 9 Episode 4: Supernatural

In this episode of Outrageous Acts of Science, the focus is on the supernatural - from ghosts to unexplainable events, the experts dive into the science behind it all.

First up, the team investigates the famous Winchester Mystery House in California. This Victorian mansion was built by Sarah Winchester, the widow of firearm magnate William Winchester. Sarah believed that the spirits of those killed by Winchester rifles were haunting her, and so she built the house in a continuous, never-ending layout, complete with secret passageways and staircases that lead to nowhere. The team explores the bizarre history of the house and the possible psychological reasoning behind Sarah Winchester’s obsession with building it.

Next, the experts delve into the world of EVPs - electronic voice phenomena. EVPs are recordings that are believed to capture the voices of ghosts or spirits, often found in static or white noise. The team sets up their own EVP experiment in a supposedly haunted prison, using a white noise machine to capture any possible voices. But are they able to capture any real evidence of paranormal activity?

The episode also features a segment on the phenomenon of spontaneous human combustion. The team investigates cases of people who have seemingly burst into flames with no apparent cause. Through experiments and expert analysis, they attempt to unravel the mystery behind this seemingly impossible occurrence.

Finally, the experts explore the world of sleep paralysis - a condition where a person is briefly unable to move or speak upon waking up or falling asleep. This condition is often associated with supernatural experiences, such as feeling the presence of demons or ghosts. The team looks at the science behind sleep paralysis, and explores how pop culture has affected our perception of this strange and unsettling condition.

Throughout the episode, the team applies scientific reasoning and analysis to some of the most mysterious and unsettling phenomena in the world. With a mix of expertise, humor, and insight, Outrageous Acts of Science continues to provide fascinating insights into the weird and wacky world of science.
