IN THIS EPISODE: A doppelganger is someone who looks almost identical to someone else even though they are not related to that person. It's eerie to come across someone with practically the same features and characteristics as yourself or another person you know, and doppelgangers are often seen as spooky. True doppelganger stories can be truly horrifying and often include interesting details about how people tried to interact with their lookalikes. With over 7.5 billion humans in the world, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that there are plenty of people who look uncannily similar to each other. But what about someone who is unrelated to you – but is your exact duplicate? Meeting a doppelganger can be a surreal experience - especially if they suddenly disappear without a trace.
