Plot Synopsis

MYSTERIOUS ISLANDS is a half-hour reality series that follows travel journalist Kellee Edwards, as she searches for the best bargains, private beaches and magical experiences on the planet's lesser-known islands. On Wednesday, October 11, 2017 at 11:30pm ET/PT, Travel Channel premiered the show's pilot, but the cable channel had no other episodes on its schedule at that time. In the pilot, "Spirits of Molokai," Kellee travels to a Hawaiian island that has remained virtually untouched by tourism. She visits a sacred space, hunts for creatures that lurk in the deep, and meets a brave local who sheds light on the island's dark past.

On Wednesday, December 26, 2018 from 11pm-Midnight, Travel Channel debuted the official series premiere of MYSTERIOUS ISLANDS, showing back-to-back new episodes:

"Island of Eternal Life" (11pm): Kellee's journey takes her to the far side of the planet to the Indonesian island of Sulawesi, where she makes the shocking discovery that its inhabitants continue living after death. Kellee witnesses families caring for and conversing with their deceased relatives, who stay for years in their home. Then in one of the most bizarre and elaborate funeral ceremonies on Earth, Kellee learns the truth in the Torajan belief in life after life.

"Georgia's Island of the Geechee People" (11:30pm): Kellee journeys off the Georgia coast to unlock the secrets of Sapelo Island. Inhabited by descendants of enslaved Africans, all attempts to develop the island have met tragic and untimely deaths. What has protected the island and the Geechee people from the outside world? A powerful spirit? A curse? As Kellee uncovers the truth about Sapelo, she realizes the answers to its mysteries are more personal than she ever imagined
