Cryptomundo
for Bigfoot, Lake Monsters, Sea Serpents and More

My friend and Cryptomundo colleague, Loren Coleman, stated on these pages that there is the prospect that Malaysian biologist Vincent Chow has been able to procure several photographs of the alleged Malyasian Bigfoot, the Orang Dalam or as it is known in this case, Mawas.

There’s an interesting little note in Publishers Weekly this morning. In an item entitled “Forget Later, Alligator—Let’s Publish Now” by Lynn Andriani, we already can see the reaction to the gator attacks we discussed earlier, here and here. Cryptomundo addressed why such news is of interest, also in this link. Andriani writes: Publishers often speed […]

A lot of people who read Cryptomundo often ask me about the BCSCC and what is exactly that we do. I am always happy to let people know about the club I founded in 1989 along with Paul Leblond and the late Jim Clark. Paul and Jim had the original vision of a club where […]

One of the things I find most perplexing about sasquatch stories from British Columbia and particularly about the ones that emanate from the Harrison Hot Springs area is that sasquatch apparently have the faculty of speech. Now, I don’t mean they can simply howl growl or grunt, I mean they can talk in known languages. […]

Here’s a quick roundup of stories surfacing today, Sunday, May 14, 2006, on America’s Mother’s Day. Perhaps someone will get an idea for a quick fieldtrip to Mormon country, Malaysia, or Massachusetts, out of this gathering? But stay away from Memphis! Part three of D. Robert Carter’s series on the Bear Lake Monsters and kin […]

After the Penn and Teller Showtime fiasco, the last thing we need is another cryptozoology mockumentary. I hope that Provost Pictures – who are set to start principal photography at Okanagan Lake the setting of a film called The Beast of Bottomless Lake – are able to avoid the abusive pitfalls entered into by the […]

Oh no, Matt Moneymaker. Watch out! Here comes Daniel Perez and a possible future treatment in The Bigfootimes. Perez is telegraphing to the world that he’s interested in gathering stories that people have been telling online and privately for years about Moneymaker.

It’s amazing to me sometimes how the media will seize on a story that really is no big deal. It is patently obvious that a lot of media types don’t do enough research before they write a story. Here’s an example. There are so many sasquatch research groups out there that I have lost track […]

Loren will be the guest Wednesday night/Thursday morning on Coast to Coast AM with George Noory. I’m sure all of the recent topics here at Cryptomundo such as the Malaysian Bigfoot brouhaha, the Mt.

With the death of Dr. Bernard Heuvelmans, 84, one of the fathers of Cryptozoology, on August 22, 2001, we lost more than a cryptozoologist. Indeed, a philosopher departed the scene. I have often wondered what he would say to all the interest and modern internet talk about the Malaysian Mawas and/or Bigfoot situation. As I […]

Sometimes it is all about Malaysia, baby! Sometimes it’s not. Immediately upon publication of the Sunday New Straits Times article, "Book Has Bigfoot Pictures", following in the wake of the Cryptomundo exclusive on the Johor Mawas photograph story, the BFRO published the Malaysian news item followed by one of their editorializing "commentaries." The new BFRO […]

There’s a new “possible” Bigfoot photograph that has been submitted to Cryptomundo. We are making no claims about it, but thought our readers might be interested in looking at this one. And pondering what it might be. It was taken by a scouting camera on April 30, 2006, in the Mt. Hood National Forest, near […]
