There have been several theories put forward as to why there is such a high concentration of strange disappearances in the Appalachian mountains.
Those theories include ones born of extreme classism such as wild men, cannibals or cults. The more esoteric ones are tolerable, theories such as Sasquatch activity, alien abduction, Not Deer related activity or strange cosmic shifts in time and space.
As an Appalachian person, I personally think it’s because the caves are eating people.
Now hear me out, that sounds wild but really stop and think about it. When no one is around, who is to say that caves don’t come alive and start sucking people in? Think about how many sets of remains with archeological significance have been found in caves worldwide? You could say that it’s because evolutionarily modern humans and our ancestors occupied caves for hundreds of thousands of years. You could say it’s because they’re perfect dark tombs to bury our dead in or to crawl in when your injured and need shelter. Or you could say the caves eat people and have been doing that since the beginning of time. That’s what I choose to believe and that’s why I don’t go near them. Artificial caverns like mines are more mouths for the earth to feed with and that’s why I don’t go near them either. I’m imploring you to watch your back whenever you’re near a known cave and don’t venture into limestone cave country alone.
We put steel bars over the mouths of caves here in western Virginia, you may be tempted to believe this is to keep people from vandalizing the inside, disturbing endangered bat species or wandering in and getting lost. That’s not true. I know it is a muzzle for the cave. One of those Hannibal Lecter face cages to keep it from eating you. Watch out. I’m warning you. They’re lying to you.
