On tonight’s episode of Baywatch Nights, Mitch investigates the disappearance of two lifeguards. Could it have something to do with an automotive accident from the past? When a third lifeguard goes missing, Mitch’s investigation goes into overdrive because this latest lifeguard is a co-star and if something happen to her, they’ll have to redo the show’s opening credits.
This episode takes a break from the usual paranormal stories that were featured for most of Baywatch Night‘s second season. But the underwater cage is still pretty creepy!
This episode originally aired on November 17th, 1996.
On tonight’s episode of Baywatch Nights, Mitch has to save a young woman from a voodoo cult! Because, listen — when you see a ghost, when you witness an alien abduction, when you realize that a cult is looking to commit a sacrifice, the first person you want to call is the beach patrol.
Being a lifeguard isn’t about just saving surfers, anymore. Sometimes, it’s about saving the very soul.
On tonight’s episode of Baywatch Nights, Mitch and Ryan discover a cabin that transports them through time! Suddenly, they’re no longer on the beaches of California. Now, they’re in a New York brothel in the 1890s and there’s a serial killer on the loose….
Okay, here’s the thing with Baywatch Nights. And yes, I know I’ve mentioned this before but now seems like a good time to mention it again. How exactly can anyone go from traveling through time at night to working as a lifeguard during the day? I mean, we’re 6 episodes into the 2nd season of this show and already Mitch has discovered that sea monsters, aliens, and now time travel are all real things. It just amazes me how calmly he’s able to accept all of that. Me, if I traveled through time, I doubt I would ever be able to just go back to my normal life. I would honestly be spending too much time obsessing on the fact that time travel is real.
Anyway, tonight’s episode is a bit ludicrous but kind of fun. So, enjoy!
For tonight’s horror on the lens, how about a chance to watch David Hasselhoff and Angie Harmon battle the forces of dark magic?
That’s right, it’s an episode of Baywatch Nights! This episode shows what happens when Angie and David investigate the burned book that they found at the scene of an occult gathering. It’s all a little bit silly but then again, that’s the charm of the show!
Enjoy!

In tonight’s episode of Baywatch Nights, Lifeguard Mitch (David Hasselhoff) is struck by lightning while saving the life of an awkward and really pale first time surfer. It’s then up the Paranormal Investigator Mitch to discover all of the surfer’s secrets. Not surprisingly, it all goes back to aliens.
At the risk of starting the obvious, the second season of Baywatch Nights is probably a show that would have never existed without the success of The X-Files. The first season of Baywatch Nights was a straight detective show. Because no one watched the first season, the 2nd season found Hasselhoff investigating a different paranormal event every week. What I find interesting is that, after battling sea serpents and all the rest, Mitch could apparently easily go back to his day job as a lifeguard. Seriously, I would be so paranoid after meeting just one monster, I can’t imagine how I would react after meeting three of them. I definitely wouldn’t be smiling while watching people go into the water. I would be demanding that the beaches close.
Anyway, this episode makes Baywatch Nights‘s debt to The X-Files pretty clear. Personally, I just like the super cheap lightning effect.

On tonight’s episode of Baywatch Nights, David Hasselhoff and Angie Harmon investigate yet another sea monster.
Let’s see. The first episode of Baywatch Night featured a sea monster. And then the 2nd episode featured a killer mermaid. And then this episode features yet another monster living in the sea. Could it be that after just 3 episodes, the writers of Baywatch Nights were running out of ideas? Fortunately, later episodes would involve various land monsters.
That said, I do find the green blob to be kind of creepy. In general, blobs are just scary.
In tonight’s episode of televised horror, it’s David Hasselhoff vs. a mermaid. Basically, the mermaid wants to procreate but it also wants to kill and that leads to all sorts of conflicts and….
Well, listen, this episode is pretty silly. To be honest, they’re all pretty silly. But that’s kind of the fun of it all, isn’t it?
This episode of Baywatch Nights originally aired on October 6th, 1996.
During the month of October, we like to share classic episodes of horror-themed television. That was easier to do when we first started doing our annual October horrorthon here at the Shattered Lens because every single episode of the original, black-and-white Twilight Zone was available on YouTube. Sadly, that’s no longer the case.
However, there is some good news! Twilight Zone may be gone but every episode of Baywatch Nights is currently available on YouTube!
Baywatch Nights was a show that ran for two seasons in the 90s. It featured David Hasselhoff as a guy who was a lifeguard during the day and a private detective at night. The first season featured Hasselhoff solving crimes and hardly anyone watched. The 2nd season featured Hasselhoff fighting monsters and other supernatural forces. Again, no one watched but the 2nd season was still a lot more fun.
Now, I’ve shared random episodes of this show in the past but, for this year’s Horrorthon, I’m going to share every episode from the 2nd season of Baywatch Nights. It’s not easy keeping those beaches safe!
For tonight’s episode, we have the first episode from season 2. In this episode, Hasselhoff and company investigate a boat that may have been sunk by a sea monster. Assuming that you’ve spent the first 40 or so years of your life believing that there’s no such thing as sea monsters, how would you react upon discovering that they actually did exist? I think it would drive most people crazy. That’s my theory. Hasselhoff and company, however, handle things pretty well.
Anyway, here’s the episode, which originally aired on September 26th, 1996! Enjoy!
For tonight’s example of televised horror, we have another episode of Baywatch Nights!
In this episode, which originally aired on October 20th, David Hasselhoff rescues a young man from drowning and, before you can say X-Files, founds out that the man is connected to …. ROSWELL! That’s right, it’s UFO time!
As with all episodes of Baywatch Nights, The Strike is silly and … well, actually, silly is the best way to describe it. But it’s just so silly that it’s undeniably fun as well.
Plus, it’s take place on the beach! Y’all like the beach, don’t you?
For tonight’s horror on the lens, how about a chance to watch David Hasselhoff and Angie Harmon battle the forces of dark magic?
That’s right, it’s an episode of Baywatch Nights! This episode shows what happens when Angie and David investigate the burned book that they found at the scene of an occult gathering. It’s all a little bit silly but then again, that’s the charm of the show!
