Title:The Crazy Creatures of North America (Exploring North American Folklore)
#Cryptids #Bigfoot #NorthAmericanFoklore - บันเทิง
Don't mind me just looking for some frog wizards.
🐸
Crazy strange, but its no big deal.
You forgot to include the New Jersey Devil
Can you do other cryptids and folklore?
Always, always.
Learning about different folklores taught me how to appreciate different cultures.
This is a fact, I'm with you on this one
And how some cultures have similar creatures but with different names... for example here in Mexico it’s very común to hear about “la llorona” and than you have the banshee I think from Ireland ... they have a lot of similar trades but with a hundred of miles distance and different times.. so it’s really interesting
@Erick Ortega there not really similar banish kill you with thier screams plus death is common
Sir, we are in West Virginia.
what about food? do you eat soylent green?
There's also some crazy cryptids from North America you haven't identified such as The Snallygastor,Dover Demon,Batsquatch,Piasa Bird,Fresno Nightcrawlers,and The Bishopville Lizardman
I love the Snallygastor. Thing is awesome.
Oh wow
Forgot the Hopkinsville goblins as well.
What's about Facebook Lizardman?
@@moch.farisdzulfiqar6123do you mean the facebook trolls?
There is something fascinating to me about cryptids. They make me kind of shudder but I just can´t help but want to find out more. I have fallen down a couple of internet holes concerning cryptids on some dark nights. Maybe it is my sese of curiosity mixed with the hope of there being more to this world than meets the eye. I would be super on board with more videos like this.
ah yes the possibility of something more in this world that meets the eye....i feel the same
I totally agree with you on this
Many of these entities are emerging from within Inner earth. No the earth isn’t flat, but it isn’t solid either. It’s like Swiss cheese with vast cave systems where dwell many beings such as the Draco reptilians, Mantids, Fenris Wolf(Dogman), Crawlers(the Rake), Anunnaki giants, Nephilim giants, Derro and many many other pre-flood ancient beings. Some feed off of human energy. This is where we get the legends of hell or Tartarus from, The Underworld. And this is why caves are the places of dread for much of humanity.
@@christianadams9114 who showed you
@@Spenced86 The link is what I experienced whilst camping in national park in Australia in 1997, but my experience with this craft was much much closer with it directly overhead. So when I see comments decrying it and confidently dismissing it as CGI....I inwardly have the last laugh "knowing" these things are real.
The TR3B is part of the Secret Space Program. Technology "they" acquired from The Greys in exchange for them to abduct humans. The TR3B is piloted by military personnel.
Many think our "visitors" are extraterrestrial, which many are in origin, as we are too. But in fact the majority are subterrestrial.
I can’t wait to see what other monsters you talk about. I would recommend the werehyena of Africa, or maybe the bunyip of Australia.
Hes already done werehyena, you should look through his library it's not very big lol
Or the Tokoleshe.
Oooo I was wondering what the bunyip is
5:34
Is Point Pleasant some kind of cryptid hotspot? Isn't this the place around where Mothman first appeared?
West Virginia overall is ripe with them. The Flatwoods Monster, Mothman, devil dogs, the Grafton Monster, snallyghasters, werewolves you name it.
Either because of mining overuse or the moonshine
there are many cryptids in virginia indeed. and yes, mothman appeared there :)
It's the meth
It's great to have you here, welcome, you're from the country I'm from Brazil and I invite you to stay here with us there will be a lot of video about Mythology and DRAGON 🇧🇷
Stories of Bigfoot date back generations before that logging company. The indigenous tribes of North America all had their own names for them in their respective languages. In Washington they were called "O'Mah" or "Boss of the Mountain". The Ojibwa called them "Sabe". The Tlingit people called them "Kushtaka", and so on.
The Tlingit people must've had a pretty big problem with bigfoot taking their kush if they named him "Kusktaka" lol
🤓
This is just the most famous story
It's called folklore. It isn't real.
😂
I saw a Bigfoot when I was a kid on a family trip in Northern California.
Sheepsquatch is a COMPLETELY different thing than any sort of dog. They can most closely be compared to Sasquatch. (Hence the name) They just have a more "wooly" type of hair and often are described as having horns. I have never heard them described like dogs.
A giant Snapping Turtle would be a thing to see......and I can believe this one. They keep growing for as long as they live and have good conditions. Sadly partially draining the lake may have done the turtle in.
The Loveland FrogMan is one of the strangest cryptids I've heard about. I'm not sure what to make of it.
The Flatwoods Monster is the least likely cryptid on this whole list.
......AND YES, PLEASE DO MORE CRYPTID VIDEOS!!!!
Liar
Next vid on American mythology, the thunderbird. Its the American equivalent to the worldly renowned phoenix. Lightning is a sub-element to fire, both r birds, and while the phoenix gives life to itself, the thunderbird gives life to others by summoning storms and rain to feed and nourish the land.
Please continue with the cryptids, I like how you don't go crazy and just provide information an possible things.
Love the frog wizard comments too.
Perhaps they were. 🤔
This channel is perfect for winding down at night before bed. This might be a part of my nighttime routine. Adult bedtime stories 🥰
I would so be the crazy, old neighbor lady who walks with kids to go look at something scary af and believes their every word! 🤣
Where I grew up, we had a dude called Catman who jumped on the roofs of high schooler's cars as they drive on lonely farm and woodland roads. Everybody knew someone who knew someone who was attacked by Catman and pulled from his car. I used to love to drive a carload of friends through Catman's haunts, stop the car, and turn off the lights. 😈🎃🤣
Yeah in my hometown we called them methheads
Oh I’ve heard of the Catman
I like how you talk about them both in the context of them being both real and fictional, because it doesn't make you look like a conspiracy nut and also keeps the story interesting. I also like how telling it this way can create interesting ways to talk about the evolution of the stories over time, and how they'd changed as more people started to hear about them
Had to give this a thumbs up simple from the intro alone! Nice! 🤌🏾✨
I love his intro i always go on fire when i see it
I've been following this channel for a few years now and the content has always been fantastic. I love what you do man.
My brother is terrified of any kind of SCP, Crypids, etc..
(especially if it has something to do with water)
lemme see what I can torture him with
Show him pictures of Australian animals especially the spider swarms.
@@hamanu666 I would but I’m arachnophobic XD
@@KlownKumiho show him this thing called a bobbit worm
Thanks for the video.
The last one fits an alien encounter description more than a cryptid. 🤔
Aliens tend to count as cryptids nowadays
@@jfitzmaurice7778 I’m thinking the classifications have always been fairly loose & overlapping. (Still love this stuff though. Don’t think my bitching & complaining means anything)
It’s giving Majoras Mask vibes
WV resident here. The Flatwoods monster and moth man are our two most popular monsters, and locally, yes, the Braxton County monster is believed to have been an alien. In fact, it’s odd the spade headed creature was shown as organic in this video, as most depictions of it in Flatwoods itself represents it as more of an alien craft/vehicle that the actual alien commandeered. That being said, most locals know it’s nothing more than an urban legend that’s just for fun. It’s about commercialization. You would have never have heard of Flatwoods, WV or Point Pleasant, WV if it wasn’t for these legends. It puts them on the map so the cities capitalize on that even though many of the supposed sightings have been debunked.
This made me excited because I litteraly just got back from the mothman museum and the flatwoods monster museum
It's great to have you here, welcome, you're from the country I'm from Brazil and I invite you to stay here with us there will be a lot of video about Mythology and DRAGON 🇧🇷
@@DRAGAOINVESTIDOR Yah don't care
Love this video, can't wait for the next one
It made me really happy that you decided to talk about one of Ohio's most famous cryptids
I don't know if you ever played The Legend Of Zelda Majora's Mask, but the UFOs at Romani Ranch look like the Flatwoods Monster. Keep up the good work, and keep the cryptids coming from all around the wrold.
These are creatures we should've had for 'Merican Yokai for "Yo-Kai Watch 3."
I wouldn't consider most cryptids as folklore. Most are based on real relatively recent eye witness encounters. Folklore I would say more like WENDIGO and skin walkers. Bigfoot is both in native American folklore and recent eye witness encounters. But that's just how I define them.
I think the “folklore” part just relates to how old it is, or the origin… not the current view of the monster/story in our time.
I guess you could say new folklore is called “urban legends”?
I dunno.
Nobody has seen Bigfoot🤣
Yeah bigfoot appears as well in many places around the world Russian Australia and others makes me believe its the most likely real one
@@kaicantu6183 okeeeeeey 🤣
Thanks for making this video! I live in the heart of this stuff... the Driftless region of Wisconsin.
Mythology and Fiction Explained is by far my favorite TH-cam channel. I’m obsessed with mythology!
I love me some Cryptids, and I’m happy to say that there are some of these I hadn’t previously heard of. Nice video
Thank you for the video. I have enjoyed all of them. I would definitely love to see more cryptids.
Great video. I'm glad I subscribed and hit the notification button. Can't wait for the next vid!
Loved this video!!!🖤🖤🖤
Dragons please! I would like to see a video about dragons please
I would love to see you do a small inclusion of the Squonk, a creature said to live in northern Pennsylvania. It's main attributes are its ugly appearance, being described as a large, walking b*llsack with eyes, and its constant weeping, due to itself being so disgusted by its own appearance. When cornered or feeling threatened, the Squonk can dissolve itself in its own tears to get away. Truly my spirit animal.
Great Video like always
What better day for you to upload than on friday
Friday uploads from you are the best
High on 'shrooms in the forest. Yep, that'll get you some Cryptids, my Friend.
Great Vid!
Love to hear about them from all over the world this is a great series keep it up
thank you ,2 of these are new to me .i love your work . please keep them coming
Love it, please post a part 2 of this
Yes, more Cryptid stories, please😊 Very enjoyable❤️
Missed you guys. Thanks for making my morning
4 foot tall humanoid frogs - shades of H. P. Lovecraft! Very interesting video, I enjoyed it!
Great video. Can't hardly wait for more.
Anytime we get stories about big face trying to get his mangy fur combed I'm in
I'd like to believe it was 3 giant frog wizards practicing magic at 3 in the morning 😂😂😂 bravo son Bravo !!! 🤣🤣
Absolutely love the cryptid videos
I always enjoy these stories. So funny and entertaining.
Please keep that intro i love it soooo much
Great video cryptids are a fascinating subject glad they are slowly getting attention in media in the form of game and film.
This is so cool please continue
Yo I really love these types of videos, pls make more
I know you've done a lot on the subject already, but I love the Dante's inferno pieces so much. Would watch more in an instant.
Cryptids is really fascinating to me as a kid something about them really bugs me and l hope you make more of cryptids.
Wicked video!
Earned yourself a new sub!
I love listening to stories like this while driving. Its very soothing
The very first creature immediately reminded me of one of my most favorite movies.
"Harry And The Hendersons"
One of the only good things about fallout 76 was how they integrated some of these as enemies
Mothman, Flatwoods monster, grafton monster, sheepsquatch and the snallygaster
@@user-gq4dy7ds4y you forgot the windigo as well
great stories, I enjoy listening o the tales, Tank you.
Please do more of these!
I would definitely watch more videos like this!
Always loved cryptids, and this video talked about some interesting ones
This was great!!!
I hope to see more cryptids from this channel..😀 I live in West Virginia..while we have a number of famous monsters,the Mothman is probably my very favorite 👍
I'm glad that interest in Mothman is still high, he's a character in the book I'm writing.
@@jeremyfrost2636 ooo..well Mr.Frost,good luck with your writing! I hope it turns out great. 🙂
@@katmack4215 Thanks! Hopefully once it's published you enjoy it.
@@jeremyfrost2636 can't wait 😁
I love that intro!
And the Loveland Frog.
I've learn from the History Channel called Monsterquest
Loved the Loveland frogman report.
I have watched u in a while but I love that new intro
Interesting!!
This was fun. I hope we get a part 2 of the cryptid of North America.
I actually live right by Busco. The event he's referring too is known as Turtle Days. And tbh, I had no idea it had anything to do with this myth. I actually had never heard of this myth until watching this video lol.
I am obsessed with this channel.
Definitely enjoyed the vid, would be down for more of the same!
I love reading about this type of stuff
I saw one of the "devil dogs" in the west Texas panhandle. It was very large and fast. All four of us saw it. It was in the field keeping pace with us as we ran down the road afraid. I don't know what would have happened if the dirt road didn't have the 2 or 3 light poles it did. The light they gave off wasn't adequate. Just enough to keep total darkness at bay. The thing made no growls or noises, only the sound of its running, and heavy breathing we could hear 30 ft. away. No foul odors either, just bright red glowing eyes that were slanted and evil-looking.
Best braw of the Flatwood Monster i ever see.
Nice video. I would love one about german folklore next.
Pretty sure theres one on the "Devil of the crossroads. Might be worth looking into. Its often associated with the origins of Blues music.
Ngl that intro is awesome!
Hands down the most epic intro I ever seen
My favorite is the devil dog. I’ve never heard of it. The “ pain but not injuries “ thing is cool. Its like when you hurt yourself and you feel as if you are bleeding, but you check to see that you have no injury. It’s trippy.
Awesome new intro
Covered the three beasties in the thumbnail. But not that freakazoid with the smile. Who is that? Ya can't just show em and not say anything about him.
The smiling man
It's the smiling man, he's from Seattle Washington and some dude saw him while he was walking at 2 am. It can be pretty easily explained though just for the fact that it's Seattle and if the person who saw him lived anywhere near the finance district then it's probably some meth head tweaking
It’s Obama
I live close to Loveland and I can't get any of my friends to go looking for the frogman with me!
This Chanel is top tier🔥
Wow! I’m so glad to myself in a video!
I just ❤ all your video's but please make some video's on #WERETIGER, #MAKAR, #YETI, #BETAL, #NAGAS AND #MANTICORE.
NICE VIDEO 👍.
Cool intro 🔥
I Loved this video and yes I would like to see more.
The frogmen aren't wizards. They just like to LARP
😊 love watching this before bed. It’s like my adult bedtime story’s
love!!
Catching up on your backlog while I patiently wait for the Paradiso video
Yes more cryptid vids 😊
Great animatic👏
Mythology & fiction is one of my fa favourite sources of knowledge and entertainment anyone else?
Busco is 30 minutes from me and i honestly had no idea about this! thats so cool!
In the nederlands we have a folklore monster called witte wieven mabe you can make a video on that
Thanks you mythology &fiction explained for the video. can you please make video on Jack of ripper
The Flatwoods monster looks like the aliens from Majoras Mask.
My dogs go absolutely spooked nuts when I play the "Sierra Sounds" 😅
The Flatwoods monster has always been one of my favorites (even though it was most likely nothing more than an owl sitting on a branch, lol) every time I see that illustration of it, I get the chills
Thanks
