I had a check and nobody seems to have mentioned this awesome show yet.

It's packed with Fortean references. The primary setting (The Mystery Shack) is a third-rate Ripley's. Cryptids galore - lake monsters, a Fiji Mermaid, a jackalope, Manotaurs and even Bat Boy gets a nod... Ghosts, gnomes, zombies, a fake psychic... If you can, watch it. Binge watch it. Catch fleeting glimpses of things in scenes, pause your player, rewind and go "Oh cool reference!".
