Mystery Bones
When these four St. Dominic Regional High School seniors were tearing down an old shed at Mt. Hope Cemetery in Lewiston during a class project, they came across some strange bones. From left to right are: Andrew Gwarjanski, Codie Keene, Jeff Lewandowski and Cameron Laney. (All photographs by Russ Dillingham/Sun Journal.) The Lewiston Sun-Journal’s Christopher Williams gave me a call yesterday, to help him with some mystery bones. Here’s his Tuesday, May 13, 2008, article about the riddle. Four high school seniors working in a cemetery Monday unearthed two intact animal skeletons. Speculation about the bones’ origin ranged from skunk [...]
Pondering Bigfoot Sex in Kansas City
Okay, yes, it does take a lot to get people’s attention these days. Sometimes it can be the implied promises found in a blog headline. Other times it may be the surprises via an assumed backdoor. But how about thoughtful and reflective images, as well? It is more difficult to go there, right? Nevertheless, take a quiet moment, turn off the iPod, the iPhone, and the HD television, and look at this brief slide show of some artistic photographs by clicking here. Sit back and enjoy the images. Alice Thorson of The Kansas City Star takes a look at “Animal [...]
Alaska’s Prehistoric Monster
Cryptotourism has been in play for ages, especially highlighted by such sites as Loch Ness, which boasts of Nessie. Smaller examples of monsters and places, such as the Lizard Man of South Carolina or Tessie of Lake Tahoe, dot the maps of the world. But a new trend is the recognition of cryptids, history, and places in various locations, often further overlooked. Glacier Island’s monster is one case that even turned up in the old Books of Charles Fort. In Mr. X’s Hypertext of the works of Charles Fort, he notes the passage from Lo!: It may be that there [...]
Cary Stayner’s Bigfoot
Cary Stayner (above) is the Valentine Weekend Yosemite Killer who said he had an encounter with Bigfoot. He later used his hunt for Bigfoot to get closer to one of his victims, the park ranger he beheaded. A relative of Stayner’s ~ named Jeff [last name on file] ~ has written to me via Cryptomundo, and sends along these observations of Stayner: I would like to add as a family member to Cary Stayner, as long as I can remember, Cary was out running and climbing mountains. I remember when he first had told me and my brother of what [...]
Nessie Tagger
Mac Tonnies encountered this Nessie stencil graffiti in Kansas City, Missouri, on Sunday, April 27, 2008. Tonnes asks: “Any examples of this in your hometown?” Mysterious origins.
Hobbit Hoax Claim: “Complete Lunacy”
You may have heard that recently the Hobbit fossils, technically Homo floresiensis, were in the news due to the remarkable claim that they were hoaxes because the teeth showed dental work. What was incredible, as I read this, was that this new debunking was done on the basis of the skeptic’s visual examination of only the photographs of the teeth and other such non-first hand evidence. It sort of reminded me of claims about the Patterson-Gimlin footage being bogus based on bad published image prints that were enlarged on a photocopy machine, something that once did happen. I was waiting [...]
Squatchip
I guess for pure fundraising efforts, I have overlooked that bag of potato chips in my kitchen. Now comes word that a Hampton, Virginia, resident is selling a chip with a hollowed out “image” of Bigfoot in its middle over at eBay. Here’s the description: I have here for auction one ruffled potato chip that looks like Bigfoot. Just for fun, let’s call him Chipfoot. The chip is in very good/stable condition and should ship quite nicely. Compare my photo by using your favorite Internet search engine for a famous picture of Bigfoot. There’s a striking resemblance. I reserve the [...]
Another Giraffid/Okapid Cryptid?
French cryptozoologist Michel Raynal is pointing to the “okapi” (?) of Tassili found in the book and bibliography of Bernard Heuvelmans, in his book On the Track of the Unknown Animals (Paris, Plon, 1955), referred to in the cave engravings as representing the okapi in Tassili. The starting point of this assertion is an article of Robert Perret, who publishes a photograph of one of these engravings. This document is available: PERRET, Robert 1936 archaeological and ethnographic Research in Tassili of Ajjers (the Sahara central). Rupestral engravings of the Djaret Wadi, population and ruins of Iherir. Bulletin of the Company [...]
Bigfoot Guitar
(AP Photo/Miami Beach Guitar Festival, Andy Newman) Just what every music-loving Sasquatch researcher needs: the Bigfoot Guitar. Obviously, I should have one for the museum. In this photo released by the Miami Beach Guitar Festival, guitar maker George Marlin strums on his Bigfoot creation at the Miami Beach Guitar Festival Sunday, April 13, 2008, in Miami Beach. The three-day festival that ended Sunday, attracted guitar makers, musicians and guitar collectors from around the United States. According to the National Association of Music Merchandisers, there are 30 million active guitar players in the America, accounting for more than $1.5 billion in [...]
