Beyond is a Canadian paranormal documentary television series created by Steven Rumbelow and produced by Renegade Motion Pictures.[1][2] The show premiered on Space and ran from 2005 to 2007. Robin Poitras was the hostess in seasons one and two, and Alannah Myles took on the role for seasons three and four. Episodes have been available on Hulu, Amazon Video, YouTube on Demand, and various other digital platforms.
The show uses interviews with eyewitness, well-respected academics, such as physicists, and paranormal practitioners, such as shamans to investigate orbs, ghosts, EVP, alternative healing, and other paranormal subjects. It was developed as a follow-up to Steven Rumbelow's 90-minute documentary called Ghosts which also aired on Space.
Every season of Beyond has a main theme, and the last episode of each season is a conclusions episode that includes a summary and a round-table discussion with the experts and practitioners from the season.
