Small Town Monsters founder Seth Breedlove (The Minerva Monster, The Beast of Whitehall, The Mothman of Point Pleasant) returns with the latest installment of his groundbreaking On the Trail docuseries, this time with a look into his own family history. On the Trail of Bigfoot: The Ancients continues the search for Sasquatch which Small Town Monsters began over five years ago.
Breedlove and his father Ronnie, descendants of early settlers in the Smoky Mountains, return to their roots for a heartfelt and exhaustive exploration of the area’s history and the rich folklore surrounding it. Along for the ride are Mark Matzke, known from numerous Small Town Monsters productions, and local experts and sasquatch researchers Matt Pruitt and Russ Jones.

Through eyewitness interviews, on the ground exploration and Breedlove’s personal journey, viewers are taken on the trail of the Ancients like never before. Members of the Breedlove clan, long-time locals, provide deep historical and cultural insight, while expert researchers such as Micah Hanks, Jakeli Swimmer, Adam Davies and Jeff Carpenter bring a wealth of knowledge to the Ancients roster.
About Small Town Monsters:
Small Town Monsters began as an independent film series exploring lost and bizarre history around the United States.
Focusing on small town folklore, our team tells stories through the words and experiences of those who were most affected by them – residents and witnesses.
Released in Spring of 2015, Minerva Monster was the first film in the series, and explored strange occurrences in 1970’s Minerva, OH. Several years later, Small Town Monsters has released over twenty films, numerous investigative programs, web series, books, podcasts and has launched a membership platform with exclusive content.
In addition to producing films, Small Town Monsters also attends events throughout the year to screen their movies and talk about these strange tales.
