If you like to laugh and be freaked out all at once, this is the club for you.

In a frightening yet friendly competition, paranormal investigators Jack Osbourne and the Ghost Brothers - Dalen Spratt, Marcus Harvey and Juwan Mass - come together to freak each other out with the craziest and creepiest paranormal footage they can find.

These guys have each faced their fair share of paranormal disturbances, so they know what's real... and what's really freaky.

It's an uproarious and jaw-dropping battle of the paranormal.

In each episode, Osbourne and the Ghost Brothers reveal mind-blowing supernatural footage: everything from UFOs to Bigfoot and ghosts.

They'll speak to the terrified eyewitnesses who captured it, get insight from psychic mediums, ufologists, cryptozoologists and other renowned experts, before ultimately voting on each episode's "Nightmare Clip" - the most haunting one that'll keep you up at night.

In the series premiere, "Hide Your Kids, Watch the Skies": Jack kicks off the friendly, fright-filled competition with security camera footage featuring what appears to be a ghost creeping through a preschool and brings on a third-generation Bigfoot hunter who claims to have found actual Sasquatch hair.

Marcus Harvey talks to an amateur ghost hunter with startling footage of an apparition powerful enough to crumble a solid wood chair.

Dalen Spratt unearths eerie evidence from a bar plagued by relentless unexplained activity, and Juwan Mass confronts his own fears about misusing spirit boards.

TX Time: 21h00
Genre: True Crime, Documentary Series

Crime Scene Confidential

In her 12 years as a Crime Scene Investigator for Orange County, Florida, CSI Alina Burroughs investigated some of the most startling and devastating cases in the country - from the tragic 2008 death of toddler Caylee Anthony to the 2016 Pulse nightclub massacre.

Through her work she has learned that people may not always tell the truth, but the forensic evidence never lies.

Burroughs revisits controversial and shocking murder cases from across the country, taking a fresh look at the forensic evidence with the hope to bring more clarity to these complex crimes and closure to the victims left behind.

Throughout the six-episode series, Burroughs investigates the evidence in some truly baffling murder cases ranging from a deadly fall from a balcony that turns out to be even more twisted than initially thought, to the case of the unexpected death of a young college student that was believed to be closed.

From the unknown to the sensational, Burroughs uses her years of training to see the clues and uncover the mysteries that only an expert CSI could catch, while also having emotional, and sometimes tense, conversations with both the victim's loved ones, and, at times, even the suspected or convicted perpetrator to understand more about the case.

With every case, Burroughs brings not only her forensic expertise, but a compassionate and empathetic understanding of the lingering trauma these cases can have on the family members and loved ones - even after a verdict has been delivered.

In each episode of Crime Scene Confidential, Burroughs hopes to resolve any lingering misconceptions or mysteries around these agonising crimes.

In the series premiere, "My Search for Caylee Anthony": This episode explores the evidence in the death of Caylee Anthony and the subsequent trial of her mother, Casey Anthony.

Talking to the detectives who investigated the case and interrogated Casey Anthony as a suspect as well as chief medical examiner Dr. Jan Garavaglia who pronounced the cause of death and testified in the trial, Burroughs reveals why those investigating and prosecuting the case felt they had the evidence to go to trial.

Burroughs also reflects on her own time working the scene where Caylee's remains were found and her testimony on the stand.

The episode culminates with an emotional interview with Cindy Anthony, Caylee's grandmother, who first reported the toddler missing.

While Casey Anthony was found not guilty, the case continues to haunt those who investigated the crime.

Genre: Police Procedural, Drama

NCIS 18

NCIS is more than just an action drama. With liberal doses of humour, it's a show that focuses on the sometimes complex and always amusing dynamics of a team forced to work together in high-stress situations.

NCIS Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs, a former Marine gunnery sergeant whose skills as an investigator are unmatched, leads this troupe of colourful personalities.

Gibbs, a man of few words, only needs a look to explain it all.

The team includes NCIS Special Agent Timothy McGee, an MIT graduate with a brilliance for computers; and NCIS Special Agent Eleanor "Ellie" Bishop, a mysterious mixture of analytic brilliance, fierce determination and idealism who specializes in international threat assessment and global preparation.

There's also the charismatic, unpredictable and resilient NCIS Special Agent Nicholas "Nick" Torres, who has spent most of his career on solo undercover assignments; and NCIS Special Agent Jacqueline "Jack" Sloane, who built her reputation as the agency's premier forensic psychologist and enjoys challenging Gibbs.

Assisting the team as the NCIS Historian is retired medical examiner Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard, who knows it all because he's seen it all.

Ducky's protégé is the naïve Jimmy Palmer, who graduated from assistant to fully licensed medical examiner and now runs the morgue.

Also on the team is Forensic Scientist Kasie Hines, Ducky's former graduate assistant who impressed Gibbs with her keen forensic skills during a critical time for the team.

Overseeing operations is NCIS Director Leon Vance, an intelligent, highly trained agent who can always be counted on to shake up the status quo.

From murder and espionage to terrorism and stolen submarines, these special agents investigate all crimes with Navy or Marine Corps ties.

In the Season 18 premiere, "Sturgeon Season": Gibbs and Fornell attempt to track down the leader of a drug ring who supplied drugs to Fornell's daughter.

Also, the team deals with the case of a missing cadaver from the NCIS autopsy room.
