Strange Nebraska Hominoid Seen
A Nebraska City despatch of Nov. 30th, says John Hoff, wood chopper, last Saturday night [November 26] stumbled over the form of a frightful and hideous-looking creature. He described it as undoubtedly of human form in face and body, but so frightfully deformed as to leave only a faint resemblance. The body, as far as he could observe, was entirely naked and black and rough. The head [had] the eyes almost protruding from their sockets, and fangs stood out from a horribly shaped mouth. In locomotion it used its feet, and what were undoubtedly its arms from the elbows to [...]

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. The anniversary of the Dover Demon sightings (April 21-22, 1977) is rapidly approaching. On April 21, 2007, I’ll be a guest on the “Dover Demon” 30th Anniversary Special (“Dover Demon” is a chapter in Mysterious America), from 10 pm to Midnight, on the Eastern Spooky Southeast broadcast, on WBSM-AM, 1420 AM, New Bedford, Massachusetts.

1800s’ Hairy Wild Men – Fools’ Pranks or Reality?
Chad Arment noted on April 1st: “Loren Coleman has posted an account at Cryptomundo of an early April Fool’s Day Sasquatch story by John Green (before Green became interested in the phenomenon). That may have been one of the first news pranks that actually used the term Sasquatch, but there is a much earlier April 1st tale of a hairy wild man.” Arment goes on to tell about an older story from back East, during the 19th century. Yes, I had in mind, specifically, the earliest “Sasquatch” and “Bigfoot” (Pacific Northwest) April 1st journalistic joke, so I’m not surprised that [...]
Spring Skiing for Bigfoot in Maine: Cryptozoo News Updates
Today is April 5th. It seems like it should be spring outside, right? Believe it or not, some people think that because I live in Maine, I’m a resident of Canada. I get strange emails. Truth is, on this Thursday I feel like I’m in the Himalayas. This morning there is about a foot of snow that fell overnight in Portland, Maine. Today is the opening day for the cryptid-named Portland Sea Dogs baseball team, but, of course, that event has to be postponed. So, back to thoughts of cryptozoology…. Humans may be dealing with incredibly unbelievable Easter/Passover skiing in [...]
Brooding About Bigfooters
Sometimes I allow my thoughts to drift to trying to understand the “people” part of the Bigfoot quest. In my Bigfoot! The True Story of Apes in America (NY: Paraview Pocket – Simon and Schuster, 2003), I wrote Chapter 15, “The Bigfooters” to detail my thoughts on the matter of the why and the what of the searchers. I added historical and people-specific notes to this matter in my more casual analysis of the folks “looking” for Bigfoot in The Field Guide of Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates and Tom Slick: True Life Encounters in Cryptozoology. In Bigfoot!, I decided [...]
