Cryptids of DownEast

Cassie and other cryptids haunt the Gulf of Maine.

DownEast Magazine has a new article, “Mysteries of Maine,” for June 2010, at their online site.

The column by Rob Sneddon liberally adds a few Maine cryptid cases, in these subsections: What was the “Turner Beast”? (that includes notes on black panthers and pumas), and But what about sea monsters?

It is a rather good discussion, if I say so myself. Of course, there’s a joke in that statement, needless to say.

Thanks for the heads up from J.Meuse.

Loren Coleman About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct). Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015. Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
