As far as I know, a thread like this hasnt been done yet, I got this idea as I was listening to the new Paranormal Round Table podcast yesterday...


They were discussing some really crazy and bizarre things that people have claimed to see...like a Bigfoot with antlers, deer that apparently have sharp canine type teeth, Wendigos, Gugwees, Rakes, etc etc!!


They have been talking a lot about 'Rakes' on PRT, personally, I dont believe it, its one thing to believe in Sasquatch or a 'dogman', but when people start trying to say there are multiple creatures out there, all existing together, that just beyond the limit for me.

Don't forget the Jackalopes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackalope. My father had a head mounted on his wall. I presume it was only a baby since we have seen statues of men riding on the backs of the big ones.

Wasnt the Jackalope made popular by some movie?


Speaking of rabbits/hares...PRT did a recent episode which had a few guests on, claiming they had seen or encountered VERY large rabbits, usually 'out in the deep woods' (of course!), Im not talking about 'large rabbits'...Im talking about rabbits the size of horses!


I actually had to stop listening to that episode, it made me mad they were obviously faking these claims, its very unusual for Josh Turner though, he had an encounter with a Dogman when he was 15 in his front yard, he was 20ft from this thing...why he would have people on his show talking about rabbits the size of horses is beyond me, it was a bad decision.

I have visited one of the biggest tourist traps on the planet. Have seen many stuffed Jackalope. Seen them with both antelope and deer horns.

Skinwalkers are really just native american medicine men/witches, they use native american black magic in the same way a witch would use regular black magic. Native American people WILL NOT talk about this subject either!


I do believe they exist, as there is plenty of proof from the various tribes.

If there are places where other dimensions and realities 'bleed through' to ours, then all of these wacky and wonderful things are possible. It is only if you believe that our reality is the only one possible, you will not believe there are other strange cryptids.

Really, there have been many, many different reports of strange things across history, and from peole who are normally quite rational and sane and who would never "make things up" for the hell of it. So why should they suddenly be describing some strange beast if it did not appear in front of them?

Obviously, the first one or two reports from even trustworthy people could be taken as mistaken identity of as a result of some health problem, but after that, we have to think there may be something to the phenomena which multiple people are reporting. When tens of people start to describe a similar encounter, people who dont know each other and who have not heard of the cryptid previously, what do you do? You cannot write them ALL off as making it up, can you...? There must be something else from our normal perception of this reality going on - that's my interpretation.
