Title: Local Legends
Post by: ravinclaw on August 22, 2009, 07:17:00 AM
 Is there any legends in any of your areas about cryptids or beasts lurking around?

Where I grew up there was one. It was about a white creature who walked upright like a man, but had the head of a panther, some people called it the wampus cat. I know of about 15 people who swear they have seen it.

anyone else?

Back where I grew up we had something called the Pope Lick Tress Monster.  Another variation on the goatman myth.
