The Appalachian Mountains are old as hell, and so are some of the strange stories that have come out of them.

Join me as we explore the history, folklore, monsters, haints, boogers, witches, cryptids, and unexplained things associated with Appalachia. We’ll dig into stories of Little People, Bigfoot, Raven Mockers, Spearfinger, Mothman, the Flatwoods Monster, the Bell Witch, Snallygasters, the Boojum, Moon-Eyed People, Veggie Man, and plenty more.

We’ll also untangle some of the creatures and legends that have gotten mixed together over the years and figure out what actually belongs to Appalachian lore, what came from somewhere else, and how the stories became connected.

Come for the history. Stay for the monsters. And maybe don’t go wandering through the woods afterward.
