We’ve told a blob story before – but the story that unfolded in Oakville, Washington in the mid-90s deserves its own telling. These blobs rained down from the sky and caused pretty severe impacts on the ground… and you guessed it: the jury’s still out on what, exactly, splatted down on Oakville. Was it aliens? Monsters straight out of a horror movie? Or just weird, weird rain?

One Strange Thing: True Paranormal Mysteries explores the archives of the unexplained, blending rigorous historical research with a wry, skeptical wit to investigate true supernatural stories and baffling mysteries that made headlines.
