Alien experiment, diseased predator, or an undiscovered creature? Join us as we dig into the legend, the evidence, and the mystery that refuses to die.

Come join our pack as we adventure into the frozen wilderness of North America and into the lives of one of the most remarkable living creatures on this continent. Wolves. The ancestor of humanity's best friend and, in some cases, our worst enemies. Wolves have a long rocky history. From being one of the most feared predators on the planet to facing near extinction. In this episode we will be sharing a couple of our own stories about wolves, from the retelling of a real, tragic encounter to the fictional events of a terrifying wolf chase that might as well be real. We also have a bit of Trivia and Wolf Facts to round it all out. We hope you enjoy and learn something new from this adventure.

In this chilling episode, we venture to Acadia National Park! The only national park in the Northeast and one of the smallest, yet it ranks in the top 10 most visited in the U.S.

Haunted trails where spirits linger, legendary portals to the underworld like the eerie Devil's Oven, and a history of tragic drownings, and misfortunes await. Despite its compact size, Acadia boasts rugged mountains (including the highest point on the Atlantic coast), over 300 bird species, diverse mammals from moose to seals, and thousands of plants. Making its dark side all the more haunting.

Light your campfires, get cozy, and join us as we head up the Atlantic Coast to explore the beauty and the shadows of this iconic park.

Something ancient watches from deep within the forest. Before "Bigfoot" was a tabloid headline, Indigenous nations knew it as Bukwas and Dzunukwa: a guardian of nature. A thief of children. A spirit of the wild. In this episode of Nature of Fear, we trace the origins of the legend from sacred Indigenous stories to the rock-throwing horrors of Ape Canyon. And discover why this shadow in the forest still makes our hearts race when the campfire dies.
