Now I want to know everybody's super local cryptids. None of your Yeti, Pacific Northwest Bigfoot, Nessie or even Chupacabra here.

I want to know about shit like my hometown's Humanzee or the Lake Worth monster from a town near my current home.

On the Olympic peninsula in Washington we apparently have forest octopi. They're very good at camouflage.

There's a lot of fun cryptids in that region. Apart from the Pennsylvania White Bigfoot, there's the snallygaster and the dewayo. I think the former is because there's a lot of herons in the area, and the latter is your standard "omg a weird bear" cryptid.
