MARCEL’S QUANTUM KITCHEN. PARANORMAL WITNESS. FACE OFF. Those are the trio of reality shows that will be joining the network’s unscripted programming such as the GHOST HUNTERS franchise and DESINATION TRUTH along with Syfy’s new Thursday reality block—MARY KNOWS BEST and FACT OR FAKED: PARANORMAL FILES—which premieres July 15.

Want the lowdown on the shows?

Well, here it goes:

FACE OFF

John Travolta and Nicolas Cage star in this TV spinoff of John Woo’s 1987 film. OK, that’s a lie. FACE OFF is a competition/elimination series exploring the world of makeup FX artists. The show incorporates makeup FX and a wide range of skill sets including prosthetics, 3-D design, animatronics, sculpting, eye enhancers, puppeteering, casting and molding. Each episode reveals the competitors’ finished work, with one contestant being sent home by the panel of expert and celebrity judges. It all culminates in one winner and one grand prize that could launch a career.

MARCEL’S QUANTUM KITCHEN

Utilizing the “science” of cooking, MARCEL’S QUANTUM KITCHEN stars one of America’s most notorious chefs, molecular gastronomist Marcel Vigneron (TOP CHEF, pictured right). In each episode, Marcel and his new catering and event company will be hired by a demanding client to produce a celebration or event. Based on the client’s requests, Marcel will dream up a theme and cuisine for the event, which range from a fairytale graduation party and a Goth-rock fashion show to a birthday dinner held on a platform suspended in mid-air.

PARANORMAL WITNESS

This drama-documentary series brings to life the stories of people who have lived through paranormal experiences that defy explanation. Using a mixture of intimate first-hand testimony and realistic drama, PARANORMAL WITNESS takes audiences into a world turned upside-down by extraordinary and terrifying events.
