Clearly made by someone who has lived in a box for their entire life.

I only watched episode 6 "Firestarter" and I felt embarrassed for whoever made it, generally these sort of programs scrape the bottom of the barrel as it is, but there wasn't a single mystery in this show, they simply ignored blatantly obvious explanations and declared it a mystery, um no.

2 bodies are found on Kīlauea an active volcano, one of them has no signs of trauma and looks to have collapsed and died, basically what you would expect if they were overcome by carbon dioxide or one of the many other gasses that are prevalent around active volcanoes, or even just simply heat exhaustion, but these weren't even mentioned as a possible solution, we did however get an explanation involving sentient fireballs or curses, no really I'm not even joking.

They also put far too much stock into superstitions and curses based on the vaguest coincidences you could possibly imagine, basically they take things that you would expect to see statistically across a large sample of people and try to use it as the proof that something is amiss. It's the equivalent of claiming that saying the word "bang" will give you cancer because the lady down the street did it and she got cancer, well yeah statistically some of the people who say "bang" will get cancer, not because they said "bang" but simply because it is a statistical inevitability, the 2 events aren't connected in any way and trying to connect them is a fools errand.

Save yourself the trouble and just make up some crazy mysteries of your own, they will likely be a hundred times better than anything you'll see here.
