Freak Encounters

Freak Encounters is the Animal Planet reality prank series where subjects think they are joining a TV crew going after mysterious creatures and events, but who are actually in for the scare of their life. We have all heard the urban legends, the tabloid stories, and the tales of creatures that go bump in the night, from werewolves to bigfoot. We all assume they are just tall tales, but what would we do if suddenly the creatures were right in front of us in the flesh, and possibly after some flesh. These victims are about to find out. Like Christian, who joins a wildlife research team to try to find out who is attacking animals in the forest from above. Little do they know, it is no typical predator, and they are visited by a legendary giant mutant bat named Ahool, and Christian freaks. Heather volunteers to investigate a series of mysterious car accidents on a remote wooded road, but the cause may not be human. Tune in to see these well-meaning people pranked with some terrifying creatures on Animal Planet's Freak Encounters. MORE
