Old Gods of Appalachia

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.

Blown the heck away!

I just now finished listening to episode 76 and… it’s rare that I’m struck speechless, but dang has this show has done it! I wish that I had enough words to praise everyone and everything that is even tangentially related to this podcast. Throughout its run, it has moved me to tears, outright laughter, raging hatred, pride, and deeply profound sorrow through the artful way that it’s been crafted so as to take the audience along with the characters and allow them to experience it all for themselves. The storylines are pure genius, and every aspect of Old Gods of Appalachia is simply dripping with talent! I am SO glad to have lost myself in this podcast, and the folks behind it will forever have my most sincere, heartfelt gratitude!

Hokey?
Feb 14
I live in Appalachia and am a woman. I have to say I find the podcast rather hokey. The Protestant pastor delivery gets on my nerves but I made it through season 1 because of the GREAT story. I know 80 year olds in my holler that could tell a story better, though. It’s also…too Appalachian. It’s trying too hard. It researched “Appalachian lore” on Wikipedia and found a list of Appalachian words online and made soup out of them. It feels hokey and inauthentic. Lastly, yeah it’s woke and even I get tired of it as a woman. Just give me a good story ok? Now get off my property.
Just like home!
