Here would be my picks:

Strange Legends: There was a second Bigfoot story I would have liked to see on there. Also, I swear they did a Stonehenge segment around the early 90's area (can anyone verify this?) Also, there was a picture of the Great Pyramids on the covers, but no Pyramids story?

Ghosts: The St. James Hotel one I've heard so much about. Also, I believe there was a haunted store, either a Wal-Mart or a Toys 'R Us

Psychics: The case of the teenage girl who could make clock hands turn and dryers spin at alraming rates, and make eggs come out of the fridge without opening the door. There was a report of a hoax when she staged an incident involving a telephone, but I believe she said she staged that in order to get reporters off her back who wanted to witness one of the strange happenings.

Bizarre Murders: way too many to mention.

One word: Chupucabras

Also does anybody know what is the best selling series out of the dvd's?My prelimanary study says Ghost is #1 followed by Bizarre Murders at least according to Amazon.

Ahh yes, the Chupacabras. Good call, UMLongtimefan. I had forgotten about that one in my original post for this thread. That would have been a good addition to the Strange Legends series.

I would have to say it would be Ghosts followed by UFOs and Bizarre Murders in third place. The other three, I have no idea!

The only two sets I own are the Ghosts and Bizarre Murders. The Ghosts set is so easy to find and is always in stock at every retail store around here. They consistently have the UFOs in stock as well. I saw the Bizarre Murders at Best Buy ONCE and immediately snatched them up. I have never seen any of the other sets on a store shelf, ever.

Are you sure the haunted Toys 'R' Us was featured on UM. I remember it being on another show back around 1990, but I never heard of an UM segment.

I was thinking the same thing.

It was never on UM but aired on "Thats Incredible". Here is an article that talks about it:
