MOONSHINELAND

A tale of haunted Appalachia. Based on Horace Kephart’s first person account of prohibition era murder, moonshine, and mountain mayhem “Our Southern Highlanders” and Madeline Vinton Dahlgren’s classic book on the Appalachian occult “South Mountain Magic,” MOONSHINELAND is the story of two friends’ journey into the Appalachian wilderness on a manhunt for a fugitive moonshiner. But instead of tracking a human criminal, the men discover they are on the trail of an ancient Evil, the Wolf Man of Appalachia, and that they, the hunters, have become the hunted.

MOONSHINELAND

a tale of haunted Appalachia

When a murderous Moonshiner escaped his prison cell in prohibition era Appalachia, real life adventurer and author Horace Kephart joined the manhunt for him led by a US Marshal and a Cherokee war hero turned bounty hunter. It was the adventure of a lifetime and Kephart wrote about it in his true crime book "Our Southern Highlanders." But we here at Moonshineland have discovered a lost, apocryphal edition of Kephart's book that details the mysterious, supernatural events that took place on this manhunt that the publisher refused to print. Listen to MOONSHINELAND if you are brave enough to hear the truth.
