Holler Nights
Not every story from these mountains is a case file.
Some of them never made the news. They made it into the stories people still tell around fires, on porches, and late at night. Passed down, changed a little each time, half remembered and half believed.
Holler Nights is an eight-episode bonus series from Bramble and Bone, stepping outside our usual casework into the lights, ghosts, creatures, and old ways of Appalachia. Some of these stories are documented. Some are legend. We tell you which is which.
All eight episodes are below, sorted into four kinds of stories.
Told by Silas Cade. Researched and produced by KT.

Holler Nights: The Woods — The Mothman of Point Pleasant
November 1966. A seven-foot figure with glowing red eyes near an old power plant. Thirteen months of sightings, strange men in black asking questions no one could answer — and a bridge collapse that would tie Point Pleasant to legend forever.
