How to watch Wild Boys: Strangers in Town online
When two young brothers emerge from the wilderness in British Columbia, claiming to have lived their whole lives off grid, a small Canadian town becomes the epicentre of a media frenzy. But it’s not long before this wild tale begins to unravel. Keep reading as we explain how to watch Wild Boys: Strangers in Town online from anywhere in the world.
Premiere date: Wednesday, February 18 |
Global stream: Paramount Plus |
In summer of 2003, 23-year-old Tom Green and his 16-year-old brother Will were discovered living in the woods near Vernon, BC. Claiming they had been raised in the wild by nomadic parents, the pair soon became local celebrities, surviving off the good will of local families.
Claiming that their parents were originally from the Bay Area, the story caught the attention of the San Francisco Chronicle, and this wider media coverage soon led to doubts around their story. To say more would be to spoil this rollercoaster of a true crime doc, but that the Chronicle ran their first report on the brothers on April 1 is quite the coincidence.
Strangers in Town is a wild ride, encompassing off-grid survival, a national hoax, the kindness of strangers, betrayal and desperate actions over its two episodes so read on for how to watch Wild Boys online and from anywhere.

Who are Tom and Will Green?
*Spoilers for Wild Boys: Strangers in Town*
Tom and Will Green emerged from the wilderness in British Columbia in 2003, claiming they had been living off grid their entire lives. However, it was later discovered the brothers were actually Kyle and Roen Horn.
Roen had run away from home after concerns about his weight loss led to recommendations he be sent to a mental health facility. Later, his brother Kyle had left for a trip to Canada, staying in periodic contact with their parents, but never revealing that he was with his brother.
Roen and Kyle's hoax was rumbled when a family friend saw a news report on the 'wild boys' and recognised the pair.
