This is a direct copy of their interview, which they have given me permission to post. I added a few familiar Cryptomundo photos to keep your retro visual interests occupied.- LC Cryptomundo by Jon Brooks Early last year, we took a look at Cryptomundo, a site that scours the Web for news of “the most elusive and rare animals (cryptids) on this planet Earth.” Since then, sightings [...]
Mothman on Halloween
Jeff Rense and Brad Steiger wanted to talk a good deal about Mothman for Halloween on The Jeff Rense Show the eeeevvvvveeening of October 31, 2007. (Sorry, they were imitating vampires at the beginning of the show, and it sort of caught on.) Then after the program was over, I noticed this new posting about Mothman on Halloween. It’s a small world, isn’t it? Coming in 2008: Mothman: Evil Incarnate.

DarkLore Cometh!
One of the things that happened as I was finishing Bigfoot! (published in 2003) was that Ray Wallace died on November 26, 2002. I added some details, post-proofs, to my book, but there is much that can be said about what happened, after Wallace died. The entire landscape of Sasquatch studies was changing rapidly. Grover Krantz had died on February 14, 2002. I surprised many people because I was behind exposing what Wallace had done, and took to heart that Bigfoot research would be better off if we began looking closely at Wallace’s legacy. I’ve now written two examinations of [...]
At Mass Monster Mash
I’m on the road again. This time I am at the “Mass Monster Mash,” in Watertown, Massachusetts, on Saturday, October 13, 2007, giving an illustrated (almost 50 images) on the Dover Demon. I also will be talking to folks, and selling/signing books. Since others there are speaking on Bigfoot, the Bridgewater Triangle, and Phantom Clowns, I’ll have some things to say about those topics too, outside my keynote hourlong illustrated lecture. I will have a few new copies of the 2007 edition of Mysterious America with me. I also will bring along some copies of The Copycat Effect, Tom Slick: [...]
Dangerous Names
In Mysterious America, I have written about the sinister nature of the “name game.” There can be a bloody side to the name game, as well. I’ve published some thoughts about this – as evidenced by the Ohio school shooting this week – in new blog over at the Copycat Effect site, here: “Cleveland’s Coon: A Columbine Copycat”. I am not shy about confronting the racial underpinnings in issues, so for those faint of heart about that topic, you won’t want to read that blog. As many of you know, as a consultant and volunteer, I am involved in preventing [...]
A Man and His (Weird) Museum
The Lewiston Sun Journal came for a visit to my museum. Here’s the way reporter Kathryn Skelton experienced it. And me. Weird, Wicked Weird A man and his (weird) museum Hair from Sir Edmund Hillary’s Yeti expedition, water from Loch Ness, a 9-foot latex pterodactyl, Loren Coleman’s got it all. Sometime next spring, Loren Coleman’s getting a 12-foot-long replica of Canada’s Ogopogo lake monster. It’ll probably have to stay on the porch, near his 8.5-foot-tall, oxen-haired Bigfoot. Coleman is a little pressed for space indoors. There’s already a 9-foot latex pterodactyl camouflaged by an avocado tree and a cabinet of [...]
Peter Matthiessen on Wildpeople
Peter Matthiessen, who is perhaps best known for his books The Snow Leopard (1978) and In the Spirit of Crazy Horse (1983), will be speaking in Idaho on October 19, on the topic “A Naturalist’s Impressions of the Wildman.” He will be sharing his insights about Yeti and Sasquatch, in a lecture arranged by anthropologist Jeff Meldrum. Those who have closely read In the Spirit of Crazy Horse recall that Matthiessen talked of the Dakota/Lakota traditions and encounters with their “Big Men,” the local moniker for the Sasquatch. Peter Matthiessen (b. May 22, 1927, New York City) is an American [...]
Loren Coleman Update
It did seem like time to brush the rust off that little corner of Cryptomundo. FYI. My biographical information at Cryptomundo has been updated, here. The bio details had not been changed since I joined Cryptomundo a few years ago. I’m beginning to feel a gallery of all the comic book images that artists have created should be gathered in one collection and linked to that bio site. But I have to go on to the cryptozoo news today, and I just don’t have time for everything. Here I am engaged in cryptoconchology, the study of the shelled hidden or [...]
John Green’s Health
Daniel Perez’s September 2007 issue of The Bigfoot Times has been published and he has forwarded a copy to me. It contains an extensive interview with Tony Healy about his Yowie research and his new book, The Yowie: In Search of Australia’s Bigfoot by Tony Healy and Paul Cropper, as well as other news items. John Green (right) interviews Albert Ostman about Ostman’s 1924 Sasquatch abduction incident in British Columbia. Also, of much importance for Bigfooters, is this little note Daniel Perez is running. The senior statesman of Sasquatch studies has cancer, according to Perez. John Green The author of [...]
