In this episode, we delve into the enigmatic world of cryptids, those mythical creatures that have captured our imaginations for centuries. Based on Linda S. Godfrey's acclaimed book "American Monsters," we explore firsthand accounts from eyewitnesses who claim to have encountered these extraordinary beings. From the elusive man bat to the terrifying American gargoyle, we examine the evidence, the skepticism, and the enduring fascination surrounding these mysterious creatures. Join us as we investigate the paranormal and explore the possibility that not all monsters are just myths.
