Looking for something spooky but safe for the whole family this Halloween? National Geographic Wild has brand-new shows to share. The closer you get to midnight, though, the scarier it gets! While some are creepy and kooky, others are cute and cuddly. Look out for…
1 18:00 Fact vs Fear Find out how bats, rats, wolves, toads, spiders and snakes became the creatures of our nightmares.
2 18:45 Howl-o-ween Get ready for the scariest, most bizarre dog patients from National Geographic’s vet shows. Vampire dogs, zombie pups and more!
3 19:45: Dr K’s Exotic Animal ER Halloween Florida-based Vet Dr Susan Kelleher treats all the creepy scaly creatures, from chameleons, tegus (various species of lizards) and bearded dragons, to two-headed snakes and run-over tortoises. But there are some treats in with the tricks, such as baby raccoons, a wee hedgehog and a little quail.
4 20:55 Something Bit Me A hungry reptile snaps up a spearfisherman, a polar bear attacks a waitress who’s on her way home, a mountain lion starts targeting hikers, a bear attacks the same hiker twice in one trip and more. Scientists explain why animals might attack, when man becomes the prey, and how we can survive to tell the tale.
5 20:55 Mystery Of The Giant Cave Spider Welcome to Tasmania’s World Heritage wilderness, where researchers have spent the past 25 years studying Earth’s oldest surviving species of web spinner – the Tasmanian Cave Spider – in Australia’s deepest caves.
