Getting the role in Mountain Monsters

“They called me. They wanted to come to interview me. They wanted someone hyper, had a lot of energy and was tough as nails so they called West Virginia Trappers Association who said ‘we know just the person.’”

The producers flew from Los Angeles, Calif. to Columbus, Ohio, before driving to Summersville. Bill fondly recalls that the interview went so well, that the producers were calling him back within 30-minutes.

“It wasn’t 30 minutes and they were calling me back. Thirty minutes and they wanted me to sign a six-year contract. I told them ‘no, no, no.’ So, I signed a two-year contract and it’s been five years and I’m still here. Evidently, I am doing something right.”

Since then, Bill has been a regular part of the reality TV series, Mountain Monsters. For all the dangers involved with the show, Bill is glad to be on reality TV and is thankful to god.

“It’s awesome. How many people can even say they have been on TV? I never dreamed. The only reason I got this position is the radical old Marine that I am, that Almighty God made me. If I was doing this on my own, I can assure you I would screw it up.”

Even though, Bill left his stable job for 16 and 18-hour workday, he is happy to be on national television. After all, Bill was selected as part of the original six from a selection pool of 700 people.
