Premise

The town of Portlock, Alaska was established in the 19th century as a cannery,[2] particularly for salmon. However in the 1940s, Portlock became a ghost town, as a terrifying bigfoot-like creature known as Nantinaq chased all the villagers out.[3] Over the course of the series, a team of five men: Ash Naderhoff, Keith Seville, Noah Craig, DJ Brewster, and Kyle McDowell camped out around Portlock and the Port Chatham, area looking for Nantinaq.[4] During the exploration the team is assisted by Portlock descendants Tommy Evans and Frank “Guy” Berestoff.[5]
