 An archaeologist with a mysterious past and his by-the-book Graduate assistant seek out archaeological finds that seem paranormal in nature.

Created by Lee Fanning

A long time ago, John Patton Jr. discovered something he couldn't explain-- something out of place. Something-- paranormal. And ever since, he's hunted for answers. Now a trained archaeologist, John-- along with his Graduate assistant Alton Brecht-- is still determined to find a way to explain what he found-- using science to make sure he does it the right way.

All around the United States, and even around the globe, John and Alton travel when they can, in search of other out of place artifacts and seeming phenomena. Along the way, they encounter dangerous conflicts, uncover the unexpected, debunk hoaxes, and experience exciting new cultures and histories-- always in pursuit of explaining the unknown.

Their adventures offer an exciting, historically-focused way for audiences to explore unique science and other educational topics.
