SIX-EPISODE SEASON TO INCLUDE INVESTIGATION OF THE DISAPPEARANCE OF FLIGHT MH370 AND A TWO-HOUR SPECIAL EVENT ON GARY HILTON, THE NATIONAL FOREST SERIAL KILLER

October 4, 2022 - (New York) - On Sunday, November 13 at 9pm ET/PT, season four of Real Life Nightmare premieres on HLN with a new host, former Cold Case Investigator Paul Holes. The season opens with a two-hour special event "Blood Mountain: The Hunting Ground" investigating Gary Hilton, also known as the National Forest Serial Killer.

"Real Life Nightmare explores some of the nation's greatest criminal mysteries, and I am looking forward to bringing my investigatorial experience to the series and helping shine a light on these important cases," said Holes. "The team behind this show has a real passion for these cases that I have witnessed firsthand, and I am eager to share our findings with viewers as we produce each episode."

Real Life Nightmare presents heart-wrenching personal mysteries and unexplained deaths that continue to baffle investigators and horrify those left behind. Cases covered this season include the disappearance of flight MH370, the unsolved murder of Catholic priest Father Alfred Kunz, the mysterious kidnapping of Lindsey Baum, and more.

"Paul Holes brings decades of experience in solving the most complex crimes to Real Life Nightmare," said Executive Producer Elizabeth Yuskaitis. "He is one of the foremost forensic experts in the nation, solving cases that once seemed unsolvable. Victims, family members and investigators on cases we cover welcome his expertise."

Paul Holes is a New York Times bestselling author, podcaster, television host and retired Cold Case Investigator with the Sheriff and District Attorney's Offices in Contra Costa County, located in the Bay Area of California. During his 27-year tenure as an investigator, Holes developed and applied investigative, behavioral, and forensic expertise in notable cases such as Zodiac, the Golden State Killer, and Jaycee Dugard. In May 2022, Holes released his debut book, Unmasked: My Life Solving America's Cold Cases which became an instant New York Times bestseller.
