When Fact Meets Fiction

Ben and the team spend a great deal of time, energy and expertise investigating the most convincing paranormal claims to determine their veracity. In doing so, they've helped expose some hoaxes that might have otherwise continued to be believed by the community at large. Unfortunately, there hasn't always been a Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files team around to look into supernatural claims. If there had been, perhaps some of history's greatest hoaxes could have been debunked sooner.

Join us as we take a look back at five great paranormal hoaxes that could have been settled much sooner had they fallen under Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files' exacting eye.
