"Beyond Reason" was a television quiz show seen throughout Canada from 1977 to 1980. Programmes featured a group of experts from various paranormal specialties attempting to find the identity of hidden visitors, resembling a combination of "Front Page Challenge" and "The Amazing World of Kreskin".

This CBC Television series was recorded in Winnipeg. Hosts for most of the series run were journalist Allen Spraggett and CBC announcer Bill Guest. These hosts were replaced by Paul Soles in the show's final episodes.
