In the United Kingdom, the series airs on the Sky-owned television channel Pick as Monsters and Mysteries.
Unlike predecessors such as In Search of... and MonsterQuest, the series includes numerous legends in each episode and features first-person witness encounters.
Ron Bowman has served as show runner and writer since the series' launch.
AmericanMonsters.com co-founder Rob Morphy has served, among others, as a consultant and illustrator for the program.
It's refreshing in its lack of snark, and even though there are many unintentionally hilarious moments... it's not the exploitation TV that is rampant in the current documentary scene.
