Episode Details

In September 1952, a fireball streaked across the evening sky over the small town of Flatwoods, West Virginia. What began as a group of boys chasing what they thought was a fallen meteor quickly turned into one of the strangest encounters in American history. Waiting on the hillside was a towering figure… floating, silent, and unlike anything they had ever seen. The witnesses ran home terrified, reporting burning eyes, the smell of sulfur and ozone, and a creature that still defies explanation more than seventy years later.

Was it a trick of the light? Misidentified animal? Cryptid?… or something not meant to be found in those Appalachian woods? Tonight, we step into the fog and retell the legend of the Flatwoods Monster.
