Plot Synopsis

ALASKA MONSTERS is a one-hour reality series that follows the Midnight Sons, a monster tracking team in the Last Frontier, as they use high-tech tools to search for mysterious creatures that may have snatched up people in a region known as the Alaska Triangle. The Alaska Triangle -- the region between Barrow, Anchorage and Juneau -- spans 200,000 square miles where more people go missing per capita than anywhere else on Earth. Treacherous terrain and unforgiving natural elements have stopped many in their tracks, but some Alaskans hold onto the idea that mysterious monsters snatched them up. Unidentified crypto-creatures wander the state covered by millions of acres of dense wilderness and are known to lift and reposition trees with ease, create seismic activity with their minds, and even decapitate humans with one bite. The Midnight Sons is a team of native outdoorsmen that includes: team leader Little Bear; researcher Crusty; trap engineer Todd; tech expert Levi; rookie Rhett Magner, husband of MOUNTED IN ALASKA's Tina Knight; and expert tracker Face. In each 60-minute episode of this series, this group investigates the harsh Alaskan forest in a quest to uncover proof of one monster thought to be living there, including: Central Alaska's Bigfoot, as one of the team members finds himself face to face with an 800-pound beast; The Saberwolf, which is a massive wolf that folklore claims has the ability to bite off the heads of its unsuspecting victims; and other monsters like the Otterman that the team attempts to trap.

Season 2 of ALASKA MONSTERS premiered on Saturday, September 19, 2015 at 10pm ET/PT on Destination America. The eight-episode second season is a dedicated Bigfoot Edition, in which these expert trappers focus their efforts on capturing the king of covert creatures, Bigfoot. The native outdoorsmen employ thermal technology and modern tracking techniques in their quest to find evidence that Bigfoot calls Alaska home. In the season opener, the monster-hunting team heads to Zone 29 of the Alaska Triangle, near Coldfoot, where the dangerous Yeti known as the Siberian Giant was reportedly responsible for the notorious massacre of nine hikers. After meeting an ice fisherman who had an encounter with the Bigfoot, the Midnight Sons trek 40 miles from civilization to find out where this monster is living. While battling frostbite and the brutal terrain, the team devises a plan to lure the creature to them, using one of the team members as bait.
