The show has fans divided on whether it is scripted, resulting in a debate on Reddit. Some users believe that the show is fake.
One particular user commented it was just a "soap opera for red necks and hillbillies" on a Reddit page dedicated to the show. Another user insisted that the team once reused audio for two entirely different monsters.
But other users argue that the show is not scripted and is 100% real, although the cast might have been guided partly.
A user remarked that the show could not have been scripted because the Grassman of Ohio had heavily injured Big Old Buck in one episode.
Besides the debate on Reddit, TV Overmind reported the series was fake for a few reasons. One reason was that the hunters never fired at any creatures, even in defense. The men reportedly carried guns whenever they hunted but never used them.
Another reason mentioned was how the creatures always escaped. The media outlet reasoned that the self-proclaimed skilled hunters never seemed to catch the creatures. Everything they caught always escaped.
The outlet also stated that the creatures captured and shown on TV looked completely computerized.
But note that the reports are all assumptions, and substantial evidence on whether the show is real or fake hasn't yet surfaced.
