TILT%3A+Top+8+Cryptids+and+the+Theory+on+Them

The monsters of the night. Do they exist or just folklore?

  1. Mothman

What is on the bridge a bird, plane, no it is Mothman here to forewarn or spread misfortune. Said to have Big Red Eyes, a humanoid figure, and massive wings. Like a literal moth to a flame, its first sighting was seen chasing down a car.

Many believe it may be to see the creature is something of a misfortune.

People try to debunk this creature as the other sighting is on a bridge falling apart and it can be seen on the cableway above.

There’s a statue of the beast at Point Pleasant, West Virginia, and a museum in 1966. Many think that is this an angel figure who is here to forewarn or a demon who is there to watch after sabotaging.

2. Big Foot

 Sasquatch, Yeti, a big hairy man that appears more ape by another name would still be known around the world but not recognized. The missing link between man and ape, The picture you is known as Patterson photo. 

The people who try to debunk this creature say it is just a Hollywood gorilla movie suit, the footage is too grainy, anatomy from how the creature walks or the region would not support it. To a theorist or supporters, think it is real and try and collect as much evidence as possible and reshape.

3. Flatwood Monster

These Cryptids are more alien-like, they aren’t your typical little green or grey men taking your cow. They have a single redhead with large eyes,  spade-shaped heads, metallic frames, and long skirts and they are able to levitate as well. It is tall and comes out of fire from a meteoroid sighting. 

 

4. Loch Ness Monster 

Found in the Scottish Highlands, many think it was a dinosaur or it was a hoax that was made with a piece of driftwood or a toy boat.

A dinosaur that survived and even thrived in our modern world when every other had met either a volcanic or icy end. Science may say that it is impossible but many creatures were able to survive or evolved

 

5. Jersey Devil 

Also known as Leed’s monster. A goat head, feet later became hoofed, and bat wings. With multiple origins all with the same concept of it being a cursed child. Nobody gets called a Demon for no reason, it’s considered as a bad omen.

A monster that has been seen more than actual photography.  Many have claimed to be seen and one person claims to have the body after shooting it with a shotgun another story it is able to fly off a cannonball shot. 

When prize money was offered for the creature many people would play Frankenstein monster and try to pass amalgamated animals even using a kangaroo.

6. Kraken

You can try looking as deep into the seven seas. If you want to catch and release the Kraken that takes down a ship against your enemy or sinks a battleship. Eating sailor by the dozen and with tentacles blue whale look like a shrimp.

The miniature of Cthulhu with anger rivaling the saltiest of sea devil during storms. 

If you looking to be Poseidon and go out to sea for that white whale. You aren’t looking for an octopus but a giant squid and that’s smaller. What lies in the deep is unknown so 50 feet octopus isn’t impossible, unlike an attack from a small one.

7. Chupacabra 

What exactly is the goat sucker? It has taken on so many shapes and origin stories it can make many modern superheroes look simple. But all reports seem to be small dog or reptile-like creatures with spiny quills on their spines with skin that is a mix of leather and scales. 

A monster made from hysteria and amplified by the newspapers. Multiple people think it is a coyote or a wild dog because rural dogs are pretty come in rural areas. 

 

8. Jackalope

A rabbit variant with antelope horns seems too real to be in a Cryptozoology book instead of the biological one, but sadly tier no hare with a naturally set pair of horns of a deer.

With all the possible of combinations and how fast multiplying a mutation would appear to shout out eventually.

Many have tried to recreate it but unless you are into taxidermy and okay with making grandiose bombastic storytelling encounters. It was confirmed to be a hoax, This creature will always be a fairytale and hard science unless someone is willing to look into the American West.
