Early Life:

Jeff Headlee was born on December 21, 1957, in Vienna, West Virginia, United States. He is the son of Mildred Headlee who celebrated her 90th birthday on February 6, 2022. Jeff grew up in his hometown where he began his schooling too. He attended Parkersburg High School and later enrolled at  West Virginia University at Parkersburg.

Personal Vendetta:

For the longest time, Jeff led a normal life. Born and raised in Virginia, things were working out for Jeff and the man was breezing through life. Things changed for Jeff when an unidentified animal attacked Jeff’s dog. After the accident, Jeff searched for animal records trying to identify the animal that struck the blow. But to Jeff’s dismay, the search ended without any results. Since then, Jeff abandoned the regular search and started looking at mythical creatures. During this time, he met with Trapper, and Willy and the trio shared their experiences. Even though each one of them had a separate goal in mind, their objectives aligned. Over the years, the trio established the Appalachian Investigators of Mysterious Sightings and began searching for the supernatural.

Researcher of the group:

One of the unique features of the AIMS group is that their jobs are well-assigned. Each member of the team has a specialty and does related work. Of the original three, John was an expert trapper and also doubled down as the team leader. On the other hand, Willy also worked as a trapper but often put a creative spin on his traps. Unlike the previous two, Jeff had no prior experience in hunting and worked as the team’s resident researcher and technology expert. During the team’s nightly hunts, Jeff is left in charge of the thermal camera. Quick on his mind, Jeff often lines up witnesses for the team’s investigations. Even though Jeff receives less screen time than his co-workers, he works tirelessly behind the scenes to analyze the information on hand.

Trouble along the way:

With no prior experience, Jeff had trouble during the first few seasons of the show. He simply recorded too many sightings. This made it difficult for the group to analyze the information on hand. As most hunts are carried out during the night, Jeff could not effectively figure out what he was seeing. But over the years, he grew familiar with the technology and learned from his mistakes.
