Laughing At Ghosts In Maine Woods
John Richardson followed up his earlier article on the eastern panther survey with a short column on March 24, 2007, entitled “Seeing ‘ghosts’ in the Maine woods.” Today’s commentary has the classic framework of beginning and ending paragraphs, which in typical journalistic style, are used to bring balance into the tone of the article: For an animal that’s supposed to be extinct in the eastern United States, mountain lions have sure been getting around the Maine woods….So if you think you’ve seen a mountain lion, you aren’t crazy. You may not even be wrong. And you certainly are not alone.John [...]

The Real Bigfoot and Genuine Bigfoot Tracks, Part 5: Tools for Hoaxing by Mark A. Hall
Do Cellphones Advance Cryptid Photography?
Remember what people said when little cameras showed up on mobile telephones? The notion was that with so many digital cameras out there on cellphones, there would be more chances to capture cryptids photograhically and visually, thus adding a new level of technology to the quest. Okay, for all those folks that wanted to have more cryptid photo images taken by cellphones, here, above, is what you get! As I walked out the door I thought “hang on a minute”. It looked like a cat but it was a lot bigger. It was definitely a cat. It walked like one [...]
Stories of Pranks
The Real Bigfoot and Genuine Bigfoot Tracks Part 4: Stories of Pranks by Mark A. Hall Stories of Pranks Northern California is a setting akin to British Columbia. It is a land of forested mountains where something the size of Bigfoot could be living. The American Indians had stories of the Oh-Mah and the Tok-Mussis which they largely kept to themselves until a news sensation in 1958 brought to public awareness the topics of immense footprints and hairy giants. Against this background, the prank of leaving false footprints for others to find has been rumored going back nearly to 1924. [...]
Hoaxing
The Real Bigfoot and Genuine Bigfoot Tracks Part 3: Hoaxing by Mark A. Hall Hoaxing Serious writers on the subject of Bigfoot have included the topic of hoaxing in their works. They have acknowledged the existence of bad information that must be sorted from the good to find the valid traces of Bigfoot. My first treatment of hoaxes appeared back in 1979 when I discussed what were popularly labeled “Bigfoot reports” made in Iowa from 1975 to 1978.

How Wallace Was Blamed For the Patterson Bigfoot Film
In 2002, this was labeled as a frame of film showing Elna Wallace reportedly inside this Bigfoot suit, or did a photo editor mixed up the old Ray Wallace footage with the old Ivan Marx fake Bigfoot footage to talk about the Patterson-Gimlin film? Of course, this was not the first time that newspapers confused their Bigfoot films, now was it? Mark Hall notes in his overview published here today, that in 2002, I brought to the attention of the Bigfoot community the media’s poor unfolding of Ray Wallace’s history. I stated especially newspapers were totally confusing the Wallace family’s [...]
Eastern Puma Survey Media Analysis
A copyright-free image of the cougar from Webster’s New International Dictionary of the English Language, 1911. Do eastern pumas exist? Are they an endangered species? Should these “ghost cats” be removed from the endangered species list? Are the eastern subspecies actually different from the western subspecies? These are a few of the questions that the United States federal government will answer by the end of the year, they promise. The United States Fish and Wildlife Service announced some time ago it is formally reviewing the status of the eastern mountain lion to determine if the felid should stay on the [...]
