[5] The official Mountain Monsters Instagram account revealed on December 10, 2021, that an eighth season would premiere in January 2022.

Their goal is to prove the existence of mysterious creatures such as Bigfoot, Wampus cat, Werewolf, Hellhound, Lizard Man, and Mothman.

Cryptids such as the Cave Creature, Chupacabra, Wildman (Bigfoot), Waya Woman and the Smoke Wolf are sometimes supposedly caught on camera.

In some instances, the team places trail cameras and/or infrared camcorders near the trap to capture photographic evidence of the creature in question.

They have caught fleeting, blurry images of what they claim to be the Grassman, Shadow Creature, Cherokee Death Cat, Black Wolf and the Bigfoot from the Tygart Valley on camera, to name but a few.

Prior to the season six premiere, John "Trapper" Tice announced that he would have limited involvement due to a myriad of serious health issues.

[8] He made a minor appearance in the first episode of the season where he was visited by Huckleberry and Buck to whom he expressed the severity of his situation.

[10] The team heads to Ohio to investigate the Stonish Giant, a Bigfoot that Native American folklore says has a coat of fur so thick it cannot be pierced by arrows.

"Trapper" John Tice responded to the tweet, denying that he was an actor and referring to Moneymaker's show as "Losing Bigfoot".
