Just a reminder: If you come for Dolly, all of Appalachia: high and low, light and dark, green and not-green will rise up against/descend up on you and there won't be enough left of you to remember. Our queen is all. Trust this, if nothing else.

Hey Family, just letting you all know we are actively removing the descriptor of "Lovecraftian" from all of our promotional material and descriptions of the show. Lovecraft's social legacy is one ultimately of xenophobia and racism that we want no part of.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but OGoA is original fiction. We saw ourselves described again today as "a mix of real history and folk tales." Although sometimes the show is *inspired by* folk tales and we occasionally reference historical events, this isn't accurate.

The Thing Whose Name Sounded like Horned Head is a massive black stag who haunts the hills of our Appalachia, therefore the antlers of said beast would be those of a whitetail buck. Not a moose or a reindeer. More like this guy, but the size of a draft horse.

The land the show is recorded on was taken from the Cherokee, as was the land the creators grew up on. The folks who took that land sold it and themselves to the coal, timber and railroad industries. It is a land that people never stopped killing and dying for.
