Bigfoot, the chupacabra, and thunderbirds aren't just figments of our overactive imaginations - according to thousands of eyewitnesses, they exist, in every corner of the United States. Throughout America's history, shocked onlookers have seen unbelievable creatures of every stripe - from sea serpents to apelike beings, giant bats to monkeymen - in every region.

Author, investigator, and creature expert Linda S. Godfrey brings the same fearless reporting she lent to Real Wolfmen to this essential guide, using historical records, present-day news reports, and eyewitness interviews to examine this hidden menagerie of America's homegrown beasts.

I wasn't very thrilled with the narration. Especially the pronunciation of place names. it's nitpicky, but it bothered me. the Mothman story has been retold enough now, but people should know how to pronounce Gallipolis.

good book, bad narration

It is an interesting topic and does cover more than I thought it would. This is the sort of material to read if you are interested in Cryptoids.

Informative

My wife & I really enjoyed this book on a weekend road trip recently. Narration is good & the book covers many different types of American Cryprids (many we'd never heard of) by using interviews & recent incidents (post 2010 in many cases) while also providing historical/folklore context when available.

The book does a good job of not drawing too many conclusions & instead presents the evidence & witness testimony in a well written & researched book. Like a cross between George Knapp & Nick Redfern, Linda Godfrey is really good at using her skills as a professional journalist to thoroughly research these stories for the most credible evidence she can find, then connect with the reader & convey her findings in the way of a trusted small town newspaper writer.

i would recommend this book if you're interested in American Crytid Animals, looking for a fun change of pace, &/or if you're trying to find something for multiple people w/ different tastes. I mean really,.. Who doesn't love a good monster story?

Really Informative Book.

What about Rachel Dulude’s performance did you like?

Clear, precise delivery, However, there were several distracting mispronunciations in the first section, which interrupted my absorbing the material.

Good Entetainment, But A Bit Distracting

good over view of monster lore

I really liked how the content of the title approached researching cryptids. The author goes over the sightings, explains why they think it's credible, and even explores all possibilities of what it could be that they've seen. They're a skeptic but also don't immediately discount what others say. It was all approached in a very fact-based manner, and credit goes to the author for explaining every angle. The narrator did well. Her tone changed throughout for expression and it fit the writing well.

Good Content and Enjoyable Narration

Entertaining and fun. This is the kind of book I would have loved in highschool, or to listen to while on a camping trip. It's entertaining to hear eye witness accounts of the strange and unique. I recommend it.

A lovely listen, Rachel Dulude, has a perfect voice for audio books. Linda Godfrey has had personal experiences and really done her research on the topics making the book feel very informative.

A well written view on crypto biology from someone who has covered it from a journalist’s perspective.

An interesting read.
