Bigfoot, but he's a little too mainstream, so if I had to pick another other favorite it would beMothman because he just scared people so well, whatever it was.

The fact that it had no head and it's eyes were set between it's shoulders, big red glowing eyes, the fact that it's first sighting was it chasing people in a car driving hundreds of miles an hour down the road (it was even thumping on their roof while chasing them), the fact that instead of roaring it emits a high pitched shrieking sound that seems to freak people out even more. The fact that it was known to disappear from one spot and reappear in another as if it could teleport. The way it's walk was described as an awkward shuffling around almost like it is such a monster it's not even comfortable being bipedal. How it was seen in so many weird situations from being out in the open to being seen by people standing outside their sliding glass doors and stuff. That's a monster who doesn't mind getting close to you.

I like that it can be so many different things. Some think it was a true alien, others think it was a genetic experiment or hybrid gone wrong, others think it's a demon or monster from another dimension that was summoned through black magick rituals or dimensional portal tampering like Montauk or other things.

It's one of those monsters who if you did see it it would probably shock you even more than seeing a Bigfoot or Ghost, it's just so alien. And it wasn't small, either, if it wanted to pick someone up and fly away with them it probably could.

Another thing Mothman has going for it - nobody sees it anymore. Some people like to dismiss Bigfoot as mass hysteria and that's why it's seen every year. Seeing a Bigfoot is rare but not nearly as rare as seeing Mothman because it seemingly only appeared for a short time and then it vanished from history, but it was still around recently, as within the last 50 years.

Either that or Champ, the Lake Champlain Nessie lake monster. When it was revealed that the famous Lochness Monster black and white photo was fake, everyone felt really deflated about there being a Plesiosaurus type monster left in the world, even though that's still how the majority of sightings described it the photographic evidence for the Lochness Monster was ruined.

But then Champ happened, another Plesiosaurus lake monster and this time the photograph was authenticated by research. The great thing about Champ was that, like the Lochness Monster Champ came from a body of water that had ancient legends about those types of creatures, so there was historical background for it being real. Everyone from natives to explorers had seen it before.

The "debunking" of this photo has been melted down to "it's a sea otter and the waves are causing a mirage to make it appear like it has a long neck". In other words the attempts to debunk this photo of Champ are super weak. It's more likely that these kind of sea/lake monsters exist and this was an actual photograph of one, and that makes it a strong cryptozoological animal.

I can't have multiple favorites but those are my top two/three at least.

Good one. Even though the Ningen are whale sized I wonder if they inspired the aliens from The Abyss.

Or maybe technically they were never aliens because they've always been here. I think that was a particular red pill The Abyss was trying to provide the public with. Not all aliens are actually aliens.

Now there's Mothmans less successful cousin, THE OWLMAN.

The Owlman, sometimes referred to as the Cornish Owlman, or the Owlman of Mawnan, is a purported owl-like cryptid that was supposedly sighted around mid-1976 in the village of Mawnan, Cornwall, England, United Kingdom The Owlman is sometimes compared to America's Mothman in cryptozoological literature.

Northern Michigan reporting in,
In my area there are a lot of swamps and deep woods. In an old house me and my dad lived in when I was younger the landlord wouldn't let us in the basement of the house because he said a dogman tore apart a man and a woman hiding in a closet down there when they owned the house. The walls and all the doors down there were clawed up as I remember it and he eventually bolted the doors shut that lead to it. People around here are terrified of that fucking thing.

>>
>>17011585
Technically, mass hysteria would generally occur over a short period of time and in a specific area. So there's actually more of an argument AGAINST Mothman having been real because of the fact that it meets that criteria.

Basically, within a small community, one person said they saw it, freaked everyone else out and then suddenly everyone "saw" it too. Until something happened that took people's minds off it (a bridge collapsing, if memory serves). Also very likely why Mothman is in hindsight thought to have had a hand in said incident, lol.

Still, cool urban myth.

We also have a number of regular animals that could stand in for the mothman and behave in an odd manner - barn owls and sandhill cranes readily spring to mind.

The other problem with mothman is that the two biggest parties in spreading the word (John Keel and Gray Barker) were both people already deeply involved in the UFOlogy money-making circuit, so they went to the liberty of spicing up the story a bit.

Yeh i saw some thing where a photo expert looked at this, and said this was a tail not a neck and body. basically the 'head' i guess is the tail entering the water and the 'hump' is one half of a tail fin. You cant see itin this, but apparently changing the light settings 'especially in the original photo' you see disturbance in the water where the head is, and shadowing showing the second half of the tail.

Essentially if you see videso and reports of the champ monster[s] they are described as snake like, or big whaleish creatures. It couldnt be serpent like, because the way it is said to travel through the water is to flow its body up and down like a slinky falling down the stairs. which is highly unlikley for serpent like creature (see sea snakes and oar fish). The other description of it being a massive creature like a whale also doesnt coincide with the serpent like reports. However there was a whale or like sea creature that used to live in the atlantic, which had many humps on its back. if these humps were out of the water it could look like a serpent, yet still also fit reports of a massive creature. Heuvelman cliamed that a Plurigibbosus novae-angliae was the cryptid responsible for the sitings and the evidence points towards him being correct. Or perhaps its a Zueglodon (Basilosaurus) which was said to be HHeuvelmans crypit

I don't know what it's called and can't find anything on it(so if anyone here knows it'd be much help).
I wouldn't call it my favourite cryptid, but it's one that's certainly been stuck in my memory since I first heard of them.
In Australia and reading a storybook about Aboriginal Dreamtime. It talked about these tall(8ft+) shadow figures with piercing red eyes. They were really thin and hid inside the cracks in rock walls. They'd lie in wait for children to wander close before snatching them, pulling the child into the crack and devouring them.
The book I read might have taken artistic liberties, but it's the only reference I have.

I recall the creature quite vividly so I drew up what it was basically presented as.

cryptid
ˈkrJptJd/
noun
an animal whose existence or survival is disputed or unsubstantiated, such as the yeti.

I can only say that I'd read it in the Northern Territory. Unfortunately this doesn't really help.

>>17026014
Definitely not. Bunyips look more animalistic and live in swampland.


I should also clarify that though I said Dreamtime, it's more so on this plane, like a werewolf or bunyip would be.

No, the debuking of the photo has been melted down to ''it's a floating log'', and it's a pretty big nail in the coffin for the Plesiosaurus model, considering Plesiosaurs were anatomically incapable of raising their necks in the serpentine manner. If, of course, we assume that's the head in the first place. Alternatively, it might as well be a fin of something more ''mundane'', like an aquatic mammal, and to be honest, in the photo it looks just as much as a floating log as a surfaced animal.

I live in the Pine Barrens. Wharton State Forest in particular. Jersey Devil is of particular interest around here. There was always this story among towns folk of two mangled coyotes hanging from power lines. Never really gave it much interest my self even though i live in the middle of its habitat.

Fun fact too, the birth house of the Jersey Devil is about 15 minutes away from me around Smithville (in particular Leeds Point) Leed is a common name in the Pines.

Even if you think mothman is not a "cool" cryptid you asked what my favourite was and is this one, because when I was a child I kinda found it interesting as opposed to bigfoot and others that even a child can tell are just a dude in a suit or a toy in a lake up close,

the michigan dogman is 100% made the fuck up. the song, while scary as dicks, was an april fools prank that aired on the radio in the 1980's written by some guy named Steve Cook. it became so popular that it became ingrained in northern michigan folklore. they even made 2 crappy movies and released some CDs. you can buy them off the website.

i remember being scared of it as a little kid. they would play the song very early in the morning on the radio when it was still dark. grew up in a log cabin in the woods in northern michigan and i got the willies every time i heard it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uwFZYCwnS0 the song, should anyone be curious. it's worth a listen.

Even though it's most likely fake, the idea that an animal or something else evolved to the point that it could pass off as a tree to make catching prey much easier it rather interesting

Maybe this thing could shock you to death by absorving static eletricity brom buring against the sand, like that guy with dry skin and no hair that could turn on a light bulb and survive a eletric chair and armazenate charge. That's why it's instant death, If you touch it, you break the resistence and get all the charge.

Man, nature can be scary. Just imagine all the creatures that once lived on this earth up to millions of years past, but now there's only faint shadows of what once was and we'll never know.

Yep, and truth is often stranger than fiction. Someone could've privately owned a wallaby or roo as well. In fact, one getting sick and then getting into the wild makes even more sense if it was a normal jag off that owned one and not a zoo.

It's almost like the guy said there couldn't be chimps in america, and they'd never run away and be free either. Insane to think there are people out there that think an animal can't possibly leave it's continent of origin.

>>
>>17034542
Basically they are like animals, like cows or something (I don't fucking remember), that have a side pair of legs shorter than the other side. Because of that they only can walk in hills or mountains and can only do laps.
I also heard that they only reproduce when a male meets a female while they do laps. And males and females do laps in different directions. One is clockwise and the other counter clockwise.

Typing this made me realize how much of a child's story this sounds like for fucks sake. You sure they considered a cryptid?
