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.

Customer Reviews
One of the best podcasts!
I listen to alot of podcasts. I’m into sci-fi supernatural stuff and this podcasts is it!!! I get it may say it’s a horror podcasts but for me it’s not that at all!! The way the story is told, the imagery, the way it’s laid out to take you through a journey is amazing!!!! 10/10 rating! Nothing less!!
Such an amazing show!
My mom was a professional storyteller who is from the Appalachian Mountains in Virginia, and her original stories took place in this setting. When I heard about this podcast, I had to listen, since Steve and Cam are from the same county as my mom, and I wanted more tales set in the Appalachian Mountains. Wow! Steve and Cam have done a fantastic job in creating this whole new world, while weaving in bits of what life was really like in that time period. It definitely gives the listener that Appalachia flavor while scaring the bejeezus out of you at the same time.
Gripping stories!
I love the story telling! My only criticism is that sometimes the volume of the story is much lower than the music and advertisements.
