If you're a fan of Bigfoot hunting shows, then you've probably heard of "Mountain Monsters." This show, which airs on the Travel Channel, is unlike any other Bigfoot hunting group on TV. The Appalachian Investigators of Mysterious Sightings (AIMS) take on Bigfoot and other paranormal creatures with a unique flair that combines hillbilly D&D sessions with monsters, curses, combat, and quests.
Billiam, a YouTube channel, recently posted a video about "Mountain Monsters," calling it the greatest Bigfoot hunting show ever made. According to Billiam, the AIMS team is always quick to find Bigfoot and throw hands with everyone, including Bigfoot. Other Bigfoot shows may go out into the wild with little hope of encountering the creature, but on "Mountain Monsters," Bigfoot is always just off-camera and a real threat.
But it's not just Bigfoot that the AIMS team encounters. The show features other paranormal creatures with superpowers or something. The team has encountered ghosts, ghouls, and even a farmhouse that teleports to different states. The only boundaries of this world are those of their imagination.
As the show progresses, the AIMS team takes on bigger and badder creatures. They've encountered a rival Bigfoot hunting team, the death cat, the coyote king, smoke wolves, dogs, kittens, the legendary Grafton monster, and multiple Bigfoots (or is it Bigfeet?). Their ultimate goal is to track down the ultimate boss Cryptid, their arch-nemesis, Spearfinger of Native American folklore.
One thing that sets "Mountain Monsters" apart from other Bigfoot hunting shows is the level of detail that goes into the storylines. The show has heavily serialized its story, with storylines beginning in season five yet to wrap up in season eight. The AIMS team has faced many threats, including a rival Bigfoot hunting team who kidnapped them and sent them on a quest to the Dark Forest.
The AIMS team consists of Trapper, Buck, Willy, Wild Bill, Huckleberry, and Jeff. Each team member has their own unique skills and personality, which adds to the show's entertainment value. Huckleberry, for example, is the team's security guy whose weapon of choice is an AR-15. He can sense trouble and has had traumatic encounters with nearly every single monster they've gone up against.
Billiam praises the show for its unapologetic fakeness, which he finds enjoyable. He notes that the AIMS team has upgraded their gear and production value with so many more creatures to take down. However, he wonders if the team will succumb to the darkness as things become paranormal.
Overall, "Mountain Monsters" is a unique and entertaining Bigfoot hunting show that combines hillbilly D&D sessions with monsters, curses, combat, and quests. The AIMS team is a confident and chaotic force that the Bigfoot hunting world needs, and their feud with other Bigfoot hunting shows, such as "Finding Bigfoot," only adds to the show's entertainment value. If you're a fan of Bigfoot hunting shows, then "Mountain Monsters" is definitely worth checking out.
