New Episode This Saturday, March 14 at 10/9c on Destination America
Nowhere does the mystery of Bigfoot’s existence run deeper than in the backcountry of Appalachia, where more than a dozen different clans are rumored to call home. Locals have their own names for these enormous ape-like creatures, but they’re all Bigfoot in the end.
This Saturday on MOUNTAIN MONSTERS, the Appalachian Investigators of Mysterious Sightings (AIMS) head to Putnam County, W.V., after the legendary Chupacabras, known as West Virginia Vampires. They are convinced these bloodsuckers have struck an allegiance with Bigfoot and dead set on finding proof.

MORE ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Chupacabras are four-foot tall canines with sharp fangs that the team believes originated in Costa Rica, migrated north to Appalachia, and are now killing indiscriminately and terrifying locals. Ever since team leader Trapper first heard about Chupacabras in the 1990s, while fighting off vampire bats in Central America, he has been obsessed with capturing one of these beasts. The mystery of Chupacabras deepens when AIMS learns the bodies of their prey are vanishing after the blood has been sucked out. AIMS builds a massive box maze trap designed to contain as many of these Chupacabras as possible and arrives at the next step in their quest when they learn that, no matter what cryptozoic creature they go after, Bigfoot is not far behind.
ABOUT MOUNTAIN MONSTERS: BIGFOOT EDITION
Trapper and his team of expert hunters and outdoorsmen – including Jeff, Willy, Wild Bill, Huckleberry, and Buck – have spent their entire lives navigating Appalachia’s rough terrain, surviving off the land, and practicing do-it-yourself resourcefulness in preparation for their toughest challenge yet: defending mountain communities from Bigfoot, the most legendary monster ever rumored to exist. Now, in the third season of Destination America’s hit series MOUNTAIN MONSTERS, AIMS travels to remote corners of the Appalachian wilderness, putting a lifetime of training to the ultimate test, as they track and attempt to trap local Bigfoots across the region in a quest to prove they are fact, not folklore.
