Here’s an April report of a monster being caught under ice: The St. Albans [Vermont] Messenger reports a story coming from Shelburne, Vt. A resident of the latter place while out on the ice in the vicinity of the Four Brothers, and near the New York side of the lake, found the remains of a monster creature frozen in the ice.

Monster Winds Blow In New England
Power is going off and on here in Portland, Maine. Heavy rains and winds. Snow from last night has disappeared. Can you imagine running the Boston Marathon in this? Baseball season has been delayed for many schools due to wet fields, for weeks. At least the kids aren’t out in this today, trying to get to school. It’s Patriot’s Day here, so there is no school on Monday the 16th, and for the rest of the week too. It’s April school vacation week in New England. Of the coast, old Cassie, our local Sea Serpents, must think this is a [...]
Edward Waite Encounters Sea Serpent
Saw a Sea Serpent The officers and crew of the schooner Edward Waite, of Portland, Me., which arrived at this port recently, are positive that they fell in with a genuine sea serpent on the voyage from Cardenas [Cuba] to this city with a cargo of sugar. The vessel was yesterday docked at South street wharf, and the bronzed-faced mate, William Page, who has been a sailor for thirty years, told the story of the remarkable adventure in a straightforward manner: “Our voyage,” said he, “from Cardenas to Cape Hatteras was uneventful. We passed that point and were more than [...]
Sounds of the “Thing”
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 [...]

A dead calm was prevailing, there being [...]
