Chuck Zukowski is a former Colorado law enforcement officer who has been researching and investigating UFO-related incidents for over 30 years. In the series, he’ll pursue the cases that authorities ignore, find evidence that others have missed, listen to witnesses who are otherwise afraid to come forward, and search for definitive proof of UFOs along America’s Alien Highway.
Premiere Episode
The series premiers with Legend of the Skinwalker.
A recent creature sighting outside the infamous Skinwalker Ranch brings Chuck Zukowski and the team to Utah to investigate. Evidence, both on the ground and in the skies, indicates the mysterious shapeshifter might actually be an alien.
About the Alien Highway Team
Chuck Zukowski: Lead Field Investigator
For the past 30 years Chuck has been researching and investigating the UFO/Paranormal phenomenon. As a field investigator, he’s appeared on radio and television shows discussing his investigations. Chuck approaches every investigation from a skeptical point of view looking for any known possibility before claiming otherwise. He also implements new and innovative field experiments from time to time to enhance his investigations looking for new evidence. Currently he holds the title, “Deputy Director of Animal Mutilation Investigations” for MUFON International. (Mutual UFO Network)
Heather Taddy: Documentarian/Research/Investigations
Heather starred on A&E’s hit television series Paranormal State, which chronicled investigations from the world-renowned college-run club at Pennsylvania State University, The Paranormal Research Society (PRS). Serving as the Team Documentarian, Taddy traveled across the country helping and educating families experiencing paranormal activity. Showing no fear when it comes to the paranormal, Taddy is often seen on the series isolating her self in some of the world’s most notoriously haunted locations. She has worked alongside some of the country’s leading researchers and psychics including Lorraine Warren, Michelle Belanger and Chip Coffey.
Daniel Zukowski: Field Research/Investigations/Security
Daniel is one of Chuck Zukowski’s three children who has, on multiple occasions, helped his father in UFO/Paranormal investigations. Full time law enforcement on the civilian side and part time on the military side, Daniel looks at every investigation from a non-bias point of view. His law enforcement skills in investigation and problem solving is a tremendous asset to the team, and his military expertise helps identify the types of technology the military currently has. At a very young age Daniel grew-up influenced by the paranormal and became an investigator by association.
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
