Manage episode 425824994 series 3411306
Brace yourself as we transport you back to 1952 West Virginia, where the legend of the Flatwoods Monster was born. Experience the raw fear of locals, including kids and a dog, who encountered a floating, clawed creature with an overwhelming stench of sulfur. Their harrowing story, shared without the aid of news media, sparked a nationwide frenzy. Discover how this eerie encounter captured the imagination of many, turning the Flatwoods Monster into an enduring cryptid legend.
As we venture further, we explore other mysterious sightings and debates about the creature's existence, including investigations by Gray Barker and Joe Nickel. Was it truly a cryptid or just a case of misidentified wildlife?
We weigh the evidence and share our thoughts while challenging you to show your belief or skepticism with emojis on our latest post.
