Why is May 3 the perfect premiere date for The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch season 3? Because it’s one of the best days of the year: Paranormal Day!
The strange and often disturbing activity on Skinwalker Ranch encompasses so many facets of the paranormal. It’s why it’s considered the world’s most mysterious hotspot.
Before checking out what’s ahead for The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch season 3, let’s quickly look at the ranch and why it inspired this series.
Skinwalker Ranch
Skinwalker Ranch is located in the Uintah Valley region of Utah, which is often referred to as “UFO alley.” Since the 1950s, the area has been the site of decades of study and worldwide media attention. And the ranch is known for the occurrence of numerous anomalous events and strange UAP-related activity.
The first time I remember learning about it was in 2018 when the Hunt for the Skinwalker documentary was released. It was based on a bestselling book of the same name by George Knapp and Dr. Colm Kelleher. (Except the documentary wasn’t as well-received as the book.)

But HISTORY’s The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch has been well-received if Google users and IMDB ratings are any indication. 85% of Google users like it. Overall on IMDB it has a 6 out of 10 stars rating, but individual episodes often rank higher. Season 1 episodes each ranked consistently in the high 6s or low 7s. Season 2 episodes did even better, ranking in the high 7s to low 8s.
How will season 3 do? We’ll soon find out. For now, let’s take a look at the little we know about the new season.
The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch Season 3 Overview
Over the past two years, the team, led by current ranch owner Brandon Fugal and astrophysicist, aerospace engineer and optical scientist Dr. Travis Taylor, has conducted numerous scientific experiments to engage the mysterious phenomena on the ranch.
This season, they elevate their investigative journey to new heights. They invite guest investigators to take part in experiments, including former government officials and military officers. They also reveal new secrets in an attempt to finally answer the question: what’s really happening on Skinwalker Ranch?
Season 3 grants full, unprecedented access to one of the most infamous and secretive hotspots of paranormal and unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP)-related activities on earth. The accredited team of scientists, researchers, and experts push their experiments beyond anything that has been done on the ranch before.
From strange occurrences, including unusual spikes in radiation and evidence of mysterious underground structures, to inexplicable equipment failures and numerous UAP sightings caught on camera, this 512-acre property located in Utah’s Uinta Basin personifies why truth is often much stranger than fiction.
Anchored by never-before-seen footage of the ranch, coupled with the use of cutting-edge surveillance and scanning technology, they apply an innovative scientific approach to one of the greatest investigations of the 21st century. Even though they risk more than anyone ever previously has, it pays off. The team’s application of hard science leads to shocking discoveries.
The third season of HISTORY® Channel’s groundbreaking nonfiction series The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch premieres on Tuesday, May 3 at 10 pm ET/PT before moving to its regular timeslot at 9 pm ET/PT.

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.
