And they are back! Rick, Marty, and the rest of the gang have made a return with the grand season 8 premiere of ‘The Curse of Oak Island’ on November 10, 2020. In fact, History has said that the current installation from the series is the biggest outing yet – showcasing more determination, resources, and technology, as the team tries to solve the 224-year old treasure mystery.
In season 7’s finale, we had seen that the group conducts seismic testing, which hints at the possibility of a sunken ship buried in a triangle-shaped swamp. In season 8, the team uses sonic core drilling, strategic dives, and a massive dig to reveal what lies underneath. With a full partnership forged with Tom Nolan, the son of the late, Fred Nolan, Rick, Marty, and Craig Tester can access the land — without any ownership issues.
The ongoing iteration also follows the crew as they conduct extensive metal detecting to scour the surface of the island. The team additionally executes exhaustive archaeological digs in the vicinity of the historic homestead foundations of Daniel McGinnis and Samuel Ball. Moreover, the cofferdam at Smith’s Cove is another site where the treasure hunters undergo a detailed investigation. This locale is famous for hosting manmade structures that go back to 20 years before the discovery of the Money Pit in 1795.
Yes, season 8 finally holds a chance of enabling us to see the ancient mystery yielding some results. For some more insights, let us check out what the second episode has in store for viewers.
