Bigfoot - Hollow Mine

A Cryptid Horror Novella About a Forgotten Mine, a Missing Surveyor, and the Monster That Watches Underground

Something old lives beneath the mountain. And it remembers everyone who enters.

When down-on-his-luck land surveyor Will Farris takes a solo job in a remote Appalachian valley, he thinks it’ll be a quick payday—just map out an abandoned mining claim and be done. But the locals won’t go near the place. They mutter about Hollow Number 6. About claw marks in stone. About voices that call to you in the voice of someone you lost.

Will ignores the warnings. Until the mine starts groaning. Until he finds bones in the dark. Until he sees something massive watching from deep in the shaft—something with glowing eyes and a memory like a trap.

From Ethan Blackwood, author of Shadows in the Timberline, comes a chilling cryptid novella packed with Appalachian lore, claustrophobic horror, and a new vision of Bigfoot you’ll never forget.

Some things weren’t meant to stay buried.
