From Destination America:
(Silver Spring, Md.) – Destination America announced today that MOUNTAIN MONSTERS has been greenlit for season five slated to premiere in Spring 2017. Production begins this month on the monster hit that follows a band of hardcore hunters and trappers, known as the Appalachian Investigators of Mysterious Sightings (AIMS), as they try to prove that Bigfoot exists in hill country.
The fourth season finale of MOUNTAIN MONSTERS on April 16, 2016 ranks as Destination America’s #1 telecast ever among HH, P2+, and M25-54 in L+3 delivery. It wrapped up the latest saga in AIMS’ ongoing search for Bigfoot – but this time with their fearless leader, Trapper, coaching from the sideline. Fans rallied around Trapper during his recovery from illness and cheered on the rest of the team, Buck, Huckleberry, Wild Bill, Jeff, and Willy, as they continued on their quest – and discovered a new foe in the foothills. AIMS was shadowed by a rogue rival team that closed in on their investigations but had not yet been identified, culminating in a cliffhanger finale with a mysterious attempt to make contact.
“MOUNTAIN MONSTERS fans are about as loyal as they come, second only to the AIMS team and their unwavering dedication to finding Bigfoot,” said Jane Latman, general manager of Destination America. “We hear from devoted viewers every single day wanting to know when they’ll get to see more of their favorite monster hunters, and we’re excited to announce that the wait is almost over.”
Nowhere does the mystery of Bigfoot’s existence run deeper than in Appalachia where, over the last 10 years alone, AIMS has uncovered evidence that more than a dozen different Bigfoot clans may call the mountain region home. In the new season, they’ll investigate new reports of Bigfoot sightings to track and attempt to trap these mysterious creatures.
MOUNTAIN MONSTERS is produced by American Chainsaws for Destination America with Colt Straub, Duke Straub, Royal Malloy, Russell Geyser and Jay Bluemke as executive producers. For Destination America, Cathy Garland is executive producer, Jane Latman is general manager, and Henry Schleiff is group president of Investigation Discovery, Destination America, and American Heroes Channel.”

I too LOVE this show! I miss it! Please, bring it back. If it’s coming back, does anyone know when?
This has to be an extension of the Three Stooges? or it’s Dumb and dumber and dumber and dumber… and so on 🙂 Hard core investigators?? that’s a stretch I am surprised that they don’t constantly shoot one another. Still I love watching them! bring them back. They are the only ones chasing big foot and they are very entertaining to watch. Although I don’t think they will ever catch a Big Foot I hope they do some day and in the meantime it’s fun to watch them try. Yes bring them back. 🙂
Love the AIMS team, need to find out What happens to Buck. Love seeing all the traps and the guys . People need to see that there’s unexplained creatures and I think The AIMS team are just the ones to be able to find and get the evidence needed to prove this. We need to see more of the show and see their investigations
mountain monsters is by far the best show on tv cant wait till its return hope its real soon
i love this program and was going nuts not being able to find it. cant wait to see it again
what date will it start up again?
My whole family loves Mountain Monsters. We can’t wait to always watch the new episodes, however have watched reruns whenever their on. Great Job AIMS.
My whole family loves the AIMS group. Mountain Monsters is the best show on TV.
Love the show, crazy but please have another season. All the guys are awesome. Each one have their own spotlight. Don’t leave us hanging. And on that note when is the new season starting.
Yes I am glad they are being renewed. I very much look forward on watching the show
I love those guy’s. I hope to see the Mountain Monsters for the next 20 seasons. Destination America, knows this is the number one show. Great Job. Keep it going.
I have watched from the beginning. I have loved the show, but this season has been a little iffy. I have watched but not loved as much. I hope you will have season 6 but please try to get back to hunting the big foot..
I think it’s sad that Destination America Channel stoops this low to dumb down the American public. You have described the Mountain monsters team as hard core hunters, I think not. This is the most inept bunch of foul-mouthed, backwoods hillbilliesever. They are promoting stupidness at its best. This goofy spoof is comparable to the Three Stooges with an extended cast. The producers and network are shamelessly desperate for airing such a series on American television with such a ridiculous foul-mouthed cast of silliness. Shame on you.
I love the show, don’t miss an episode. You left us with a real cliff hanger. Too many unanswered questions. Blood skull, woman of the woods, little girl, Buck, Jeff, and the invisible creature that attacked Huckleberry. We need a sixth season to explain what is going. Please don’t cancel the show you have quite a following. Jean
