Dark Files (204): crime and the unexplained
Status: agreed with Paul 3 November 2026, configured in 0.89.0 (ChannelIdentities.kt), awaiting his OK to install.
Identity: real cases and real mysteries: true crime by day, mysteries in the evening, the paranormal at night. Test against Evidence: real cases are Dark Files; scripted detectives are Evidence.
History: Crime & Investigation UK inspires the feel; no source page was found, so this is style only.
Core: Forensic Files, Cold Case Files, Snapped, Unsolved Mysteries, Most Haunted, Ghost Adventures, Paranormal Witness.
Supporting: the rest of the crime, mystery and paranormal lists (lists in ChannelPresets.kt).
Time of day: 06:00 to 18:00 true crime. 18:00 to 21:00 mysteries. 21:00 to 06:00 paranormal. Case Files, Saturday and Sunday 14:00 to 18:00: long-form documentary series in order (Making a Murderer, The Staircase, The Jinx, The Keepers, Wild Wild Country, Conversations with a Killer, Night Stalker, Don't F**k with Cats, Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel, Tiger King, Who Killed Sara?, Time: The Kalief Browder Story). It sits in the afternoon so the paranormal nights stay whole.
0.87.0 check: before the rotation fix, seven mysteries shows were missing from a planned week; after it, those seven all air. The shows still unseen in a week are short series (3 to 8 episodes) resting after their run.
Order: in order.
New arrivals: true crime, unsolved mysteries and paranormal investigation.
