Download or read book The Mystery Animals of Pennsylvania written by Andrew Gable and published by . This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrew D. Gable is, basically, just a regular guy from Pennsylvania who's had an interest in all things monstrous and supernatural since a very early age, probably fueled by living near a cemetery and watching a generous helping of B-rate horror movies on Saturday afternoons. Author of a few articles on various cryptozoological topics for a small-press but well-regarded magazine (The Cryptozoology Review) some friends put together, in recent years he's limited his focus to the eastern United States, an area which he's found to still be particularly active. Other, non-Fortean (gasp!) interests include mythology and folklore, H.P. Lovecraft, "Ripperology," Godzilla, roleplaying games, and listening to, generally, any music I feel like.

Download or read book Mysterious Creatures 2 volumes written by George M. Eberhart and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-12-17 with total page 772 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive guide to cryptozoology—the quest to identify animals that have not been officially catalogued by science and to place these unknown animals into their proper zoological categories. In this fascinating two-volume encyclopedia, author George M. Eberhart provides a comprehensive catalog of nearly 1,000 cryptids—unknown animals usually reported through eyewitness accounts and not yet described by science. Cryptids are the stuff of folklore, hoaxes, and genuine scientific breakthroughs. There are 400 now-classified cryptids once considered either extinct or pure fantasy. The cryptozoologist's job is to strip away the myth, misidentification, and mystery—and separate fact from fiction. Mysterious Creatures covers everything from dinosaurs and the emala-ntouka, an elephant-killing dinosaur-like animal of central Africa, to searches for the Loch Ness monster, Bigfoot, and other cryptozoological hoaxes. Entries about specific animals include the derivation or meaning of each cryptid's name, its scientific name, variant names, a physical description, behavior, description of tracks, habitat, significant sightings, present status, and possible explanations. Illustrations and photographs accompany many entries. The book also includes resources and references for further information.
Download or read book Haunted Roads of Western Pennsylvania written by Thomas White and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2015-09-28 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twisty roads—and twisted tales—of the Appalachian Mountains make for distracted driving in western Pennsylvania. Ghostly travelers are said to wander the lonely roads of western Pennsylvania. A creeping fog rises from Blue Mist Road, and stories of car crashes, lynchings and even strange beasts haunt this isolated stretch outside Pittsburgh. Is it the angry spirit of a jealous husband or a gypsy king who stalks Erie County’s Axe Murder Hollow? Shades of Death Road in Washington County may be host to phantom coal miners killed during a deadly labor dispute. With firsthand accounts and historical research, authors Thomas White and Tony Lavorgne travel the backcountry roads and byways of western Pennsylvania to discover their ghost tales and mysterious legends. Includes photos! “The authors include a history of each road along with the supernatural legends and other unexplained activity. Surprisingly, they are able to provide possible explanations for most of the alleged hauntings, but admit that they cannot account for every one, which allows the roads in question to keep their allure and spooky possibilities.” —PopCultureGuy
