Interesting results from the poll include:
-- More than one third of those surveyed (39%) said they have seen a ghost
or know someone who has. Fifty-four percent have never seen a ghost
before, while eight percent were unsure.
-- When asked what legendary creature they would like to see proven as
real, thirty-six percent of people said they would like Bigfoot to be
real, while 21% said ghosts. Twenty-seven percent said various other
creatures, including vampires and werewolves.
-- About one in five respondents (21%) said they have been visited by a
dead friend or relative, while 72% said they haven't been and 8% were
unsure.
-- When respondents were asked what creature they would least like to meet
in a dark alley, werewolf topped the list with 20%. Thirteen percent
said vampire, and 12% said zombie.
-- A surprising 35% percent of people said they believe in aliens, while
40% said they don't, and 25% were unsure.
Overall, about one third of the population seems open to the notion that ghosts, cryptid creatures like Bigfoot, and aliens do exist. To satisfy this craving for supernatural entertainment, Animal Planet has two series, in premieres this fall, which tackle the unknown.
Every Tuesday at 10 PM (ET/PT), discover the stories behind the creatures that science refuses to recognize with LOST TAPES. Bigfoot, werewolves, vampires, the Jersey devil. . . while their existence has never been proven, alleged sightings and encounters suggest that there are species that have managed to elude the reach of mankind. You've heard the legends, but LOST TAPES is where myth meets reality.
Then, premiering November 22, at 10 PM (ET/PT), Animal Planet breaks into a new genre by introducing an original 10-part series, THE HAUNTED, which takes an intimate look at stories of people whose animals act as mediaries to the afterworld. Often the subjects of the most intense paranormal hauntings, animals are commonly believed to be more sensitive to spirits than people. Think of them as canaries in the paranormal coalmines. But when spirits afflict pets, the animals aren't the only victims. Owners also fall prey to paranormal activity and will often stop at nothing to rid their homes and pets of paranormal spirits.
HALLOWEEN SPECIAL: In honor of Halloween, there will be two special airings of the LOST TAPES: Vampire and LOST TAPES: Werewolf episodes. Viewers can tune-in on Sunday, October 25, and Thursday, October 29, from 7-8 PM (ET/PT) to catch both episodes.
LOST TAPES is produced for Animal Planet by Go Go Luckey. Gary Auerbach and Tina Gazzerro are the executive producers for Go Go Luckey, and Kevin Mohs is the executive producer for Animal Planet. Marc Etkind is the development executive for Animal Planet.
THE HAUNTED is produced for Animal Planet by Picture Shack productions. George Plamondon and Betsy Schechter are the executive producers for Picture Shack, and Dawn Sinsel is the executive producer for Animal Planet.
