Humanity has been purporting the existence of humanoid canids for millennia! From Eygpt's Anubis to the Greek tales of the Cynocephali, to the Norse legends of Fenrir & his sons, all the way to European werewolf lore & our very own viral dogman encounters! #cryptid#cryptozoology
The legendary OZARK HOWLER aka Devil Cat, Nightshade Bear, or simply the Howler! Some purport the origin of this cryptid as dating back to 1810 from the area around Cuba, Missouri... after having been spotted by none other than Daniel Boone himself! But who knows?! #cryptozoology
MOMO • This illustration features a distinct moment for Momo in our cultural understanding of said creature... & it's a bit sad. The initial sighting (1972), features a group of children who purportedly saw the "monster" carrying a deceased dog... quite the impression! #bigfoot
If this image looks familiar, or turns on the nostalgia mode of your brain... then GREAT!... we're on the same page! BUT... if it doesn't, or you're not even sure what madness I'm rambling about... BAD! March yourself into the TV & stream THE LEGEND OF BOGGY CREEK! :D #bigfoot
Love this marshmallow roasting depiction of our favorite forest friend aka BIGFOOT! But, do SASQUATCH actually utilize fire? This concept is highly debated & for good reason... but maybe they interact w/ fires left unattended by campers, maybe after peeping s'mores getting made!
The concept that the European "WEREWOLF" of lore & the North American DOGMAN are one in the same creature is certainly not a new hypothesis, but one that is undoubtedly impossible to prove (currently). No one said cryptids aren't just as frustrating as they are fascinating!
Shown are photos (apart from the last) of the locale associated w/ mothman's initial 1966 appearance... the "TNT Area" of Point Pleasant, WV... now the McClintic Wildlife Area, a 3,655 acre site. Previously a secret military complex & explosives storage facility. #cryptozoology
HALLOWEEN MOVIE NIGHT! I had mine w/ friends last night, & like every year we had a blast! We like to pick something horror themed but w/ comedic nuances. Last night we watched Totally Killer (2023), definitely recommend. Though, I'd have preferred a werewolf or bigfoot film! 🎃
🎃 HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! May it be filled with family, friends, food, fun & fanciful festivities! Halloween is a great time of year to ponder the cryptid subject & all the wonderful folkloric history it adds to our regional communities. Long live our cryptid lore! #cryptozoology
In Celtic lore, Samhain aka Halloween marks the crescendo of the "Wild Hunt", a phantasmal parade of fae, witches & the like, all racing across the night sky. This ghoulish procession is preceded by giant HELL HOUNDS! To hear the baying of said hounds was an ill omen! #werewolf
Twas the Mothman Monday before Halloween, when all through the trees, not a creature was stirring, not even the bees, the moon on the breast of the dark autumn haze, gave a luster of warning to local highways, when what to my eyes did appear, but a giant moth w/ a terrible leer!
Spent the weekend camping in Pulaski County, MO. The coyotes were some of the more vocal! However, BIGFOOT & DOGMAN remained ellusive, but tis the purported behavior of such. Pulaski County has nearly 40k acres of public land, & 2 primary rivers... Great habitat! #cryptozoology
I'll be camping in Pulaski County, Missouri this weekend... along the Gasconade River. The region has had numerous bigfoot sightings & interestingly I won't be far from the location featured in Dogman Encounters Radio, Episode 1 "It's a Dogman!" #cryptid#cryptozoology#sasquatch
Presenting... "CRYPTID" - Breyer's 2026 Freedom Series - Halloween Horse! Love seeing cryptid legends & lore utilized in such a fun & collectable way. With Tea & Cryptids, you just never what you're going to see... one day it's "monsters", the next... ponies! :D #cryptozoology
RENAISSANCE WEREWOLVES • It was believed at the time, that those transforming had made a deal w/ the devil to aquire a "wolf strap" or "wolf girdle", typically made from a wolf pelt. Essentially, a belt infused w/ dark magic, allowing its wearer to become a werewolf! #dogman
Today marks the 59th anniversary of arguably the most controversial film clip in history! I'll maintain my stance of respecting everyone's right to decide for themselves as to the validity or lack there of contained within this 59 seconds of film. #bigfoot#sasquatch#cryptid
The tragic collapse of the Silver Bridge in Point Pleasant, WV (1967) was without doubt one of the communities greatest losses. Investigators determined a fractureed steel eyebar, due to corrosion was to blame, others say MOTHMAN! Maybe mothman was just there to warn ??? #cryptid
Went "BIGFOOTING" here in Missouri the other day! Was in Phelps & Crawford counties, the region having a history of sightings! This great sasquatch statuette stood out to me, in an area where people purport frequent activity. I need a camping trip here! #cryptozoology#bigfoot
It's time again for the "Bigfoot Capitol" of Texas to celebrate its cryptid claim to fame... the 2026 TEXAS BIGFOOT CONFERENCE of Jefferson! October 16th-17th. Speakers- Lyle Blackburn, Shelly Covington-Montana, Richard Taylor, The She-Squatchers & Todd Neiss. Grab your tickets!!
