From Trinity Bay to the Big Thicket, Chester Moore uncovers chilling reports of “wild men,” primitive tribes, and mysterious off-grid people living in the shadows of modern Texas.

In this wild and unsettling episode of Dark Outdoors, host Chester Moore digs into a forgotten book that chronicles bizarre encounters with alleged primitive tribes in the Trinity Bay area near Galveston and Houston during the 1960s and 1980s.

The investigation explores:

  • A longtime newspaper author’s report of similar activity in the Big Thicket National Preserve

  • Tales of a possible “wild man” haunting the Old and Lost River areas near Trinity Bay in recent years

  • The question of whether feral humans or off-grid people are living in ancient ways, hidden from society

  • Legends and firsthand accounts that blur the line between folklore, cryptid mystery, and real human survival

This strange and mysterious episode raises chilling questions about what (or who) might still be living in the remote corners of Texas wilderness.
