Ever wondered what it’s really like inside the infamous West Virginia Penitentiary in Moundsville? Jason McKinney spent seven years working inside the prison—not as a correctional officer, but on the paranormal side of things after it shut down. From ghost hunts to executions, riots to rituals, Jason shares some of the most jaw-dropping, bone-chilling, and surprisingly historic moments from within those towering stone walls.

It’s one of the most infamous feuds in American history | The Hatfields and the McCoys. In this special Creepalachia episode, we unpack the entire story from beginning to end: the Civil War roots, the pig trial, the cabin murders, the manhunts, and the bloody legacy that shaped the Appalachian identity for generations.

Megan Moats had a picture-perfect childhood in Scarbro, West Virginia—cheerleading, books, and a loving family. But at 13, everything shifted when she found out her bedroom had been the site of a brutal double homicide back in 1961. The victims were Dr. Wingrove and Mrs. Broyles, and the mystery surrounding their deaths stuck with Megan well into adulthood.

Now, alongside her mom in the studio, Megan shares how she uncovered new, disturbing details about the case—live, during the episode. No one in her family had anything to do with it, but the trauma of what happened in that home still lingers. This episode dives deep into one of the region’s most chilling unsolved murders and how its shadows still stretch across generations.

Dark humor and true crime don’t often go hand in hand, but when the ladies from Watch For Deer Podcast are in the building, you better buckle in. Samantha and Alisa joined me for a three-hour marathon covering two absolutely chilling stories: the Rainbow Murders in West Virginia and the infamous Willow’s Weep House in Indiana.

Both stories are heartbreaking, horrifying, and full of unsolved layers—but that didn’t stop us from cracking jokes like our mental health depended on it. As we say in Appalachia, “you gotta laugh to keep from crying,” and this episode delivers on both fronts.

On November 14, 1970, a plane carrying 75 members of the Marshall University football family crashed just short of the Tri-State Airport, leaving no survivors. Decades later, their legacy lives on through a community that refused to let tragedy define them. We Are Marshall.

Recovery is possible—and this episode is living proof.

Kelcey Wolfe, owner of Wolf Song Ink Studio of Tattoo in Mount Hope, West Virginia, opens up about his incredible journey through 25 years of addiction, psychosis, and spiritual battles to now being a thriving artist, musician, and community member.

Check out his website at https://wolfsongink.com/
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092218422329

This conversation is raw, emotional, and powerful. We explore what addiction does to a person, the hard road to healing, and how creativity—through tattooing and music—helped Kelcey find himself again. He even performs an original song written specifically for this podcast.
