In the mountains of central Appalachia, blood runs as deep as these hollers and just as dark. Since before our kind knew these hills, hearts of unknowable hunger and madness have slumbered beneath them. These are the darkest mountains in the world. How dare we think we can break the skin of a god and dig out its heart without bringing forth blood and darkness? Old Gods of Appalachia is a horror-anthology podcast set in the shadows of an Alternate Appalachia, a place where digging too deep into the mines was just the first mistake.

Incredible storytelling. Solid world building. So much talent. I can't believe Apple Podcasts has kept this one hidden from me.
I can’t say enough about the creative writing and performance of this podcast. I’ve searched for other stories and NONE rival this one. My only negative are the political comments made during interviews or at the end of the wonderful episodes. It won’t keep me from listening to, but would be much better if things were kept politically neutral. Keep writing amazing stories.
I love cosmic horror, and came across this whilst looking for a good horror podcast. As a born and bred New Englander, I love the Appalachian setting, and the story/stories are fantastic. I love this podcast so much.
I love Old Gods of Appalachia, but wish the new format had all of the subscriber exclusives in listening order with the base episodes. Having to remember where Build Mama a Coffin etc fit in with the release dates of the base episodes so I can listen to them as they were released is a bit of a hassle. Beyond that, I am a huge fan and have relistened going on my fifth time now. Keep up the good work Steve and Cam and all of you wonderful performers!
