In the late 1790s there was a menace in the Southeastern region of the United States, Native American territory and North Spanish Colonies. The swashbuckling Harpes blighted the people living in these areas with sheer ferocity, making them the first serial killers in documented US History. Their actions were inked throughout the centuries being retold again and again, making this notorious Appalachian folklore an interesting, perplexing tale for any southern history enthusiast - or just a normal person searching for a Halloween themed Appalachian documentary, you couldn't find a better option to delve into. Without further ado, let's explore these cutthroat bandits' deeds, rumours, and nature as Aldo guides you on a journey through the wilderness of 18th century Tennessee, Kentucky, and Southern Illinois. You may want to consider bringing a partner along - it's dangerous out there.
