Windemere Monsters: The Jesters
This is one that can get confusing because their name is also used for the career and clothing. The thing to remember going forward is that the Jesters here are spelled with a capital ‘J’. Also that I won’t be … Continue reading

Windemere Monsters: The Trolls
What would a fantasy world be without trolls to drive terror into the hearts of adventures at least once? Obviously, you can do this, but I was picking from the classics early on and trolls were top of the list. … Continue reading

Ghost Month: Apparitions
This is a weird one because it feels like apparitions is nothing more than another word for ghosts. Yet, there is a difference that turns up on occasion. So, what is an apparition and why is it really different than … Continue reading

What’s the Creepy Cryptid From Your Area?
So, I’ve shown a bunch of strange and obscure cryptids this month. At least, they were obscure to me. That got me thinking about how people might know about one cryptid and take it as common knowledge. Yet, nobody knows … Continue reading
The Menehune: Dwarves of Hawaii
So, I really wanted to showcase something from Hawaii since I wasn’t seeing a lot show up in searches. This is mythology and folklore more than cryptozoology though. It should still count as far as I’m concerned. The Menehune are … Continue reading

Air Rods or Sky Fish
Pretty hard to tell what these things are. You can’t see them with the naked eye because they only appear on cameras. One could think they’re invisible, but there is probably more to them. Still, they are fairly interesting considering … Continue reading

The Snallygaster of Maryland

Chessie from Chesapeake Bay Harbour
For some reason, all the best pictures of this cryptid seem to be cartoons with no life-like ones. Maybe just my bad luck. As you can tell, we have another water monster, which seem to be really common around the … Continue reading
