A fog-covered morning in Onslow County turns into one of the strangest hunts ever told. What began with a warning call from Uncle Donald quickly spirals into a chilling encounter with something no hunter alive could’ve prepared for — something ancient, powerful, and not of this time.

Follow Crowfoot, Snakebite, Preacher, Frizz, Sasquatch, Wheel, and a pack of hounds as they track a creature that shouldn’t exist… and watch reality bend at the edges of Rattlesnake Creek. GPS collars glitch, the woods fall silent, and the dogs return covered in sap from plants that vanished millions of years ago.

And when the fog finally parts… the truth steps out.

Part supernatural thriller, part old-school hunting tale, and part campfire mystery, The Hunt at Rattlesnake Creek blends Southern tradition with prehistoric terror — all told in the true TicBite NC storytelling voice.

Stick around for the campfire closing as Sasquatch shares the artifact that still hangs in the Cedar Hollow clubhouse: a fern leaf from 65 million years ago.

Keep your dogs close, your coffee hot, and your mind open.

Some hunts never end.

My thoughts

Recorded live at one of the deer hunts. The author reads one of the children’s books to the kids big and small.

Find out what happens when a lost baby reindeer turns up outside the beagle cabin in Cedar Hollow. Molly goes on a great adventure with Comet Junior.
