Curious Creatures of New England

Description

The New England region is filled with tradition, culture, and history. Some of that history is well-known, but other elements remain hidden or spoken about only in whispers. Hairy beasts that remind us of Bigfoot...large sea monsters that swallow ships whole...mythical creatures that taunt passersby - this history is explored through stories of experiences, both earthly and supernatural, that people have had with cryptids and wild creatures of unknown origin. From the White Mountains, to the lakes of Massachusetts, to the coasts of Maine, and Southern New England, tales abound of the odd, the strange, and the sublime that have been spotted in the backwoods and hillsides of New England. Read on and see if you believe in these curious creatures.
