Season 1 Trailer: Strangers

On a summer morning in twelve eighty-four, the gate of a German town stood open. A piper in bright colors walked out through it, playing. Behind him came the children, one hundred and thirty of them.

A century later, a clerk wrote a single line in the town's books. "It is one hundred years since our children left." This is Midnight Signals.

In eighteen twenty-eight, a boy stumbled into a square in Nuremberg holding a letter. He could barely walk. He could barely speak.

And for the rest of his short life, someone seemed determined to make sure he never told anyone where he had come from.

In nineteen seventy, in a frozen valley in Norway, hikers found a woman's body, burned, with the labels cut from every piece of her clothing. She had checked into hotels under eight different names.

To this day, no one knows the real one. And in eighteen seventy-two, sailors boarded a ship drifting in the middle of the Atlantic. The cargo was there. The food was there. The crew was gone.

Season one of Midnight Signals: Strangers. People who appeared from nowhere and people who vanished without a trace, and the questions they left behind. New episodes every week.
