sightings video.
This is Top 10 Scary Cryptid Sightings part two and we are jumping right in.
Number ten Flatwoods Monster AKA green monster This being has been seen in Flatwoods, West
Virginia, and gave it the moniker, home of the green monster.
It’s a 10 foot frankenstein like monster in the hills above flatwoods.
It’s described as 10 feet tall with a blood red body, and a green face that seemed to
glow.
It was hard to tell because of the dense mist but it may have had claws for hands.
It was also accompanied by a noxious odour.
Those that saw it were aged between 10 and 17 and were terrified and ran for their lives.
The dog was frightened too Some say the creature may have come from a
UFO that was sighted five months before.
Locals who believed said the red eyed creature could eat people alive and that they better
watch out.
Number Nine Aswang Aswang is a name given to various shape shifting
evil spirits in Filipino folklore.
People say it stalks prey in the small, rural towns of the Philippines.
It is a nocturnal hunter.
During the night they find prey and prefer children and pregnant women.
They appear as regular townspeople by day.
An aswang may have reclusive habits or magical abilities including the ability to shapeshift
into dogs or pigs.
They may also walk with their feet backward, and have a have a “proboscis” tongue that
they can use to suck blood from their victims.
Some may make doppelgangers of their victims that return to the victims home, get sick,
and die.
Some people say the folklore was used as an explanation for murders or infant and mother
mortality rates.
Number Eight, Octo-man of the Ohio river So, Five people claimed to see it in the winter
of 1959.
They said they saw a Gray skinned kind of octopus like creature.
One Man reported that something came out of the river and that it was indescribable
Then another man, a truck driver called the police and said, IT CAME UP OUT OF THE WATER.
I CAN’T DESCRIBE IT AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT BEFORE.
ALL I WANT TO DO IS GET OUT OF HERE AND GET ON TO INDIANAPOLIS.
The police didn’t seem to take it seriously, but anyone who reported they saw it seemed
shaken.
Around the time these reports were popping up, lights that ran on two seperate circuits
went out along the same street, and authorities couldn’t figure out why.
A man described only as a scientist in the news allegedly saw a large, hulking creature
along the rail of the bridge they were crossing The Description: “STRANGE GRAYISH CREATURE
WITH A LOPSIDED CHEST, ‘UGLY’ TENTACLES, AND ROLLS OF FAT RUNNING HORIZONTALLY OVER
A BALD HEAD.”
Let me know if you see it in the ohio river.
Number Seven Staying in Ohio, lets have a look at Loveland Frogmen AKA, Loveland Lizard.
This lovely lizard Stands four feet tall.
Its a frog humanoid figure, spotted in Loveland Ohio.
According to legend, a local man reported seeing three frog-like men with leathery skin,
webbed hands and feet at the side of the road in 1955.
He said he saw one wield what looked like a wand that emitted sparks above it’s head
and then he ran away.
In 2016 one of these might’ve scared two teenagers.
They were playing pokemon go between Loveland Madeire Road and Lake Isabella.
They saw a giant frog near the lake that stood up and walked on it’s hind legs.
Number Six Menehune (mehneh hune) The Menehune are Mythological dwarf people
that live deep in forests and hidden valleys of the hawaiian islands.
Apparently, Great at crafting.
Menehune are usually described as playful and even mischievous.
They have distended bellies.
They are hairy, muscular and two or three feet tall, with bushy eyebrows over large
eyes.
They speak in low hum.
They are Shy creatures that sleep in caves during the day and work at night.
Can be mischievous creatures.
For example, GleepGloopGlop on the cryptozoology reddit said they took things from their campsite
and returned them later, and possibly stole a piece of cake.
Some stories go that modern hawaiians mingled with them, until they started using them for
labour.
After that the menehune retreated and hid from society.
Historians argue about their actual existence, thinking it may just be folklore.
Some stories go that children who live near the mountains can see them, but adults cannot.
A schoolteacher in hawaii said one of the kids she taught could see them.
It scared the child.
One time the young girl saw two Menehune playing an old game with a lava rock and sticks and
one looked over at her.
When they locked eyes the little girl was terrified, so she went and got a Hawaiian
blessing.The schoolteacher herself saw weird lights popping up, and she was told later
those were sacred lights.
Others also reported seeing those lights when they have had menehune interacting with them.
Number five Beast of Bray Road A Hairy humanoid creature with canine features.
Seen mainly in the 1990s in Delavan and Elkhorn in Wisconsin.
Local folklore called it a werewolf but many cryptozoologists called it more of a bigfoot
because of the scientific issues associated with saying a human turns into a wolf.
Others think its more of a cryptid canine, and other names are the “Bear-Wolf” and
the “Indigenous Dogman” Some commented it may be a black bear with
sarcoptic mange.
This is possible as there is a thriving black bear population in Wisconsin.
They are more common in the upper third of wisconsin, which would leave reason that people
wouldn’t expect to see a black bear there.
One person’s experience was when they were having a sleepover in the summer.
They were playing hide and seek in the dark and saw something huge hunched over in a bush.
It didn’t appear to be any dog or wolf, as it was much too big to be as small as one
of those.
It’s hind legs were thick and muscular like a man but tapered at the abdomen and had a
head like a wolf or canine.
They asked their dad what it was.
When he tried to get a look he had no idea either so they all hightailed it inside.
Number four Beast of Boggy Creek Also known as the Fouke Monster after the
town it was reported in In 1971 a man named Bobby Ford told the town
constable that he was attacked at his house by a hairy creature that “breathed heavily,
had red eyes, and moved very fast.
Described as seven feet tall and three feet across at the chest.
He was treated at a hospital for minor scratches and shock.
His wife, brother and a hunting companion were witnesses
Other descriptions sound similar to a Skunk ape.
Those other descriptions saw the Fouke monster smells like a mix of a wet dog and a skunk
which is the same alleged smell as a skunk ape.
The Fouke Monster is also said to swing it’s arms like a monkey.
(Images pop up for “stinky florida ape”)
Number three Manananggal Either seen as a man-eating blood-sucking
monster or witch Described as scary, hideous, and often female.
Has wide eyes, long hair, and can sprout fangs and claws.
Legends say it severs it’s torso and sprouts bat like wings to fly off and find it’s
next prey.
It’s name comes from the Tagalog word tanggal which means to remove or to seperate.
As it splits it’s body to transform and find victims.
Similar to the Aswang, it preys on people who sleep and pregnant women.
It also is said to target grooms since it may have been a woman left at the altar.
Similar to the folklore of vampires, they are said to detest garlic and salt.
To defeat one you simly find their weaker lover half and sprinkle some garlic and salt
on it.
Number two Mokele-mbembe Name means “one who stops the flow of rivers”
Its A cryptid that resembles a brontosaurus.
Ivan Sanderson, a biologist, even documented it’s existence, so may not all dinos were
wiped out by a meteor.
It’s been spotted in the Congo, and while some say it’s like its lookalike the brontosaurus
which was most likely a herbivore, some say its allegedly a carnivore.
With some saying it eats hippos.
Also, anything that can eat hippos is something to fear.
I know hippos look really cute, but they are so dangerous.
They have run as fast as 30 kilometers an hour over short distances, and are very aggressive.
Their teeth are huge, AND they could crush you to death under their weight.
So if Mokele-mbembe can take them on, you should watch out too.
Number one Grootslang (this one has scary pictures)
AKA Grote Slang.
It’s Afrikaans and Dutch for “big Snake” It is a legendary or mythological cryptid
that allegedly lives in the Richtersveld, South Africa.
Said to either be a huge elephant like creature with a serpent's tail or a humongous snake
with an elephants face and gems for eyes.
It is claimed to lure elephants into its cave AKA the Wonder Hole or the Bottomless Pit.
The cave is said to connect to the sea that is 40 miles away, and it’s said to have
many diamonds.
The thing is this beast is in there with those precious gems.
Some say it likes gems and explorers can bargain for their freedom by offering enough loot
to the Grootslang.
And those are the top 10 Scary cryptid Sightings part 2!
Before we go lets take a peek at the comments on our last cryptid video.
COMMENTS Moonshark commented, them: avoid at all costs,
me: I wanna hunt all of them.
Well moonshark, you do what you want.
Find them and send me some evidence, prove that these things are out there.
But be safe.
Mr Exlir commented… the mothmans known place is west virginia…
Me: country roads take me home to the place I belong WEST VIRGINIA.
And YES great song reference, I bet mothman wrote that song and anonymously sent it to
John Denver.
That must be it.
Also, love the baby yoda display photo.
Lastly, but not least, Rob Lox commented…
Should we consider Karens as cryptids?
Because they can be mysterious and scary.
They live in almost every neighbourhood.
And Rob, you are right.
Karen’s do mysteriously carry a lot of power so please look into it.
Do I recommend you follow around Karens?
No, but keep an eye out for anything particularly strange.
I doubt they are malicious, I know some good ones.
