The sea serpent[,] or “Thing,” was heard by others of the residents as well as by some of the cottagers, during his late re-appearance along the East shore [of the Clinton County, New York, peninsula that juts into Lake Champlain]. The sounds are described as peculiar, but whether they were made when the creature was disporting itself on the reef, or when he was “rolling up, tumbling up, any way to get up” on the shore, we are not informed. It is hoped that the editor of the Republican may sometime have the opportunity of examining the “Thing” at close [...]
Monster’s Head Spotted
The Lake Champlain sea serpent has again made its appearance, this time near Cedar Beach, a resort twelve miles south of Burlington[.] Mrs. Wm. E. Hagar and a party of friends being in camp there Wednesday morning last [July 18], when the lake was unusually calm, Mrs. Hagar noticed about half a mile distant a peculiar disturbance upon the otherwise smooth surface of the lake. Sure enough a “white cap” had appeared as though a strong wind might be blowing in that spot alone. Her son, Clifford, and Everett Towne were close at hand and both were called to the [...]
Champ’s Roar
We have received a call from Mr. Davis, of Grand Isle [Vermont], the gentleman who recently saw the supposed sea serpent. He states that he stood upon the bank of the lake [Champlain] at the time and he and his neighbors saw the animal distinctly, as it was not more than forty feet from the shore. It raised its head from the water and made a bellowing noise not unlike the sea lions seen in menageries, and then moved off, making the same noise while under water, its wake being distinctly visible. Mr. Davis states that the report that it [...]
New Rash of Mothman-Linked Deaths
I am sorry to report that details are just beginning to trickle in of a new wave of deaths and near-misses tied to the Mothman researchers, museum staff and festival people in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. (Click here for a historical overview of other similar deaths. For more on the logic behind making an openminded focus of this kind of data, see my extended comment below in response to some early critics of this specific blog.) Many of these people impacted have become friends in the last five years, so these incidents are becoming more difficult to note. However, it [...]

1977: Year Of The Creature
After I posted this morning’s blog “Flashback: Thirty Year Ago – South Dakota Bigfoot,”” about a Bigfoot flap taking place in 1977, Scott Maruna at The Anomalist commented: “Come to think of it, there were a lot of flaps going on that year.” Indeed, there were.
