Lagarfljót is a lake in which the Lagarfljótsormur, an Icelandic lake cryptid, supposedly lives. Sightings have been logged since 1345 and continue into the 21st century. An origin of the creature is given in Jón Árnason's collection of Icelandic folktales and legends published in 1862 and 1864.

The Bishop Fish and Sea Monk are two 15th and 16th-Century European cryptids - a cryptid is a legendary monster that has "confirmed" sightings, as opposed to a creature tied to myth. For example, Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, and the Mothman are cryptids, whereas the Manticore, the Hydra, and the Phoenix would be considered mythical creatures. The Bishop Fish arises from a segment of Roman Catholic thought surmising that all the creatures and people on land and in the air should logically have counterparts undersea. And thus, it was only logical that the Gospel could spread to the people under the sea, be they fish, mermaids, or whatever else. Thus, the mentality existed of something like an undersea bishop long before one was sighted. An example of the idea comes from Guillaume du Bartas's poem, La Sepmaine; ou, Creation du monde:
"Seas have (as well as skies) Sun, Moon, and Stars;
(As well as ayre) Swallows, and Rooks, and Stares;
(As well as earth) Vines, Roses, Nettles, Millions,
Pinks, Gilliflowers, Mushrooms, and many millions
of other Plants lants (more rare and strange than these)
As very fishes living in the Seas.
And also Rams, Calfs, Horses, Hares, and Hogs,
Wolves, Lions, Urchins, Elephants and Dogs,
Yea, Men and Mayds; and (which I more admire)
The mytred Bishop and the cowled Fryer;
Whereof, examples, (but a few years since)
Were shew'n the Norways, and Polonian Prince."
The first Bishop Fish story comes from 1187, and is descrived in Stowe's Annals as a fish shaped like a man with a bishop's mitre'd cap. It was kept by Barlemew de Glanville in the castle of Orfode for six months, ate other fish, and escaped into the sea one night when it was not being watched. It was occasionally brought to the church, but did not make any special gestures.
The most famous Bishop Fish was caught in 1433 by fishermen in the Baltic Sea. Because of the odd, pointed appearance of its head, the fishermen assumed that it was indeed an undersea bishop and gave it as tribute to the King of Poland. Soon after, a group of bishops received an audience with the king and got to view the creature. Supposedly, it communicated with holy hand gestures until the bishops were convinced that it was indeed a fellow clergyman, and they thus convinced the king to return the Bishop Fish to the sea. Once released, it purportedly made the sign of the cross before swimming away.
A second story comes from Germany in 1531, where fishermen caught another Bishop Fish off the German coast. The creature refused to eat and died in captivity after three days. A similar story rose up off the British Atlantic later, though there is no consistent date included with this one, and it may just be a retelling of the German story.
Current theories state that the Bishop Fish may have been a deformed manta ray, as its fins would resemble the billowing "cape" the fish was claimed to have. Some cryptozoologists believe that it was a monkfish (the lophius, not the legendary sea monk). It superficially resembles the Jenny Haniver, a hoax creature often constructed from the dried-out corpse of a skate.
The Sea Monk is very similar to the Bishop Fish. In following the same belief, if there were bishops under the sea, there would have to be monks as well. Another was found off the eastern coast of Zealand (the Danish island, not New Zealand) in 1546. The accounts' descriptions of the Sea Monk was detailed enough to provide a fairly consistent imagery for it, including a "robe" that superficially resembles multiple tendrils.
Since the 19th Century, scholarship has identified the Sea Monk as most likely being a squid. Janus Steenstrup famously compared traditional illustrations of the Monk with a squid captured and preserved in 1853. Other theories state that it could have been an angel shark, a hooded seal, or the eponymous monkfish.
Both creatures have a place in popular culture. The Bishop and monk have been illustrated in numerous zoological guides between the 16th and 19th century, and are studied often in cryptozoological circles, often in comparison to other similar creatures such as Japan's Umi-Bozu "sea monk."
In 1992, a rubber figure of the Bishop Fish was produced for the Monster in my Pocket toy line. It resembled a more "monsterized" version of the Bishop Fish's traditional depiction, and the backstory included with its trading card was mostly accurate, albeit with the additional claim that if you catch a Bishop Fish, it will "protect" you. The line also included a Jenny Haniver, though it did not resemble the Bishop Fish at all.
In 2006, another Bishop Fish was released in the new, "revived" Monster in my Pocket toy line. Unfortunately, this figure did not resemble the traditional Bishop Fish at all, instead resembling a fat, slovenly mer-man. The information on its trading card was also completely inaccurate, claiming that it was named after the chess piece, lives in the China sea, and causes storms and hurricanes. The 2006 series also included an equally-inaccurate Jenny Haniver.
In 2002, small figures of both the Sea Monk and Bishop Fish were released in the Demon's Chronicle line by Yanoman. Demon's Chronicle is a Japanese line that depicts western mythological creatures, most often angels and demons, and produces figures meant to be used as substitute chess pieces. Both are exact reproductions of their depiction in the 1862 Book of Days, although those are copies of older 16th century artwork. For example, the Bishop Fish's appearance in the Book of Days resembles Richard Breton's artwork from 1562. Strangely, both creatures are misnamed in Demon's Chronicle - the Bishop Fish is labeled as Dagon while the Sea Monk is labeled as the sea serpent Rahab. The reason for this misappropriation is unknown, as other Demon's Chronicle figures, even obscure ones such as the Succarath, are properly labeled.

HOWL!!!!
"Black Shuck, Old Shuck, Old Shock or simply Shuck is the name given to a ghostly black dog which is said to roam the coastline and countryside of East Anglia. Accounts of the animal form part of the folklore of Norfolk, Suffolk, the Cambridgeshire fens and Essex
The name Shuck may derive from the Old English word scucca meaning "demon", or possibly from the local dialect word shucky meaning "shaggy" or "hairy".
Black Shuck is one of many ghostly black dogs recorded across the British Isles.Sometimes recorded as an omen of death, sometimes a more companionable animal, it is classified as a cryptid, and there are varying accounts of the animal's appearance. Writing in 1877, Walter Rye stated that Shuck was "the most curious of our local apparitions, as they are no doubt varieties of the same animal.
Its alleged appearance in 1577 at Bungay and Blythburgh is a particularly famous account of the beast, and images of black sinister dogs have become part of the iconography of the area and have appeared in popular culture.

NAHUELITO:
es una supuesta criatura acuática desconocida que según la creencia popular vive en este lago.
Al igual que Nessie, su hermano escocés, recibe su nombre de la masa de agua que supuestamente habita, aunque su existencia nunca ha sido confirmada a pesar de las búsquedas sistemáticas realizadas.
La leyenda es muy conocida en el país y es una referencia en libros y artículos clásicos de criptozoología.
Su origen se remonta a relatos indígenas previos a la conquista.
Los primeros exploradores obtuvieron de los nativos del lugar leyendas acerca de encuentros ocasionales con monstruos acuáticos.
A partir de 1897, el Dr. Clemente Onelli, director del zoológico de Buenos Aires, comienza a recibir informes esporádicos acerca de una posible extraña criatura habitante de los lagos patagónicos.
El primer posible avistamiento registrado data de 1910, aunque George Garret, su protagonista, lo hizo público mucho tiempo después.
En 1910 Garret trabajaba en una compañía ubicada cerca del Nahuel Huapi.
Un día de ese año, luego de navegar por el lago y a punto de desembarcar, pudo avistar a unos 400 m de distancia una criatura cuya parte visible medía entre 5 y 7 m de largo y sobresalía unos dos metros por encima del agua.
Al comentar su experiencia con gente del lugar, Garret se entera de historias similares relatadas por los indígenas.
Pero el hecho se hace público recién en 1922, cuando lo cuenta al diario Toronto Globe.
En esos días se organizaba la primera expedición para buscar a Nahuelito y la controversia estaba en su punto máximo, llegando a la prensa internacional, ya entonces, la descripción del supuesto animal era muy semejante a la de un plesiosaurio.
En 1922 el Dr. Onelli recibe el testimonio de Martin Sheffield, un buscador de oro norteamericano, acerca de un supuesto rastro de grandes huellas en la orilla del lago Nahuel Huapi.
En el centro del mismo Sheffield igualmente afirmaba haber visto un enorme animal desconocido.
Convencido por el informe de Sheffield, Onelli decide organizar una expedición de búsqueda.
La misma fue liderada por el superintendente del zoológico, José Chiagi, y entre los participantes había reconocidos cazadores armados con rifles para cazar elefantes y dinamita para minar el lago.
La gente reaccionó negativamente ante la participación de cazadores, y el Dr. Albarracín, Presidente de la Asociación Protectora de Animales, le solicitó al Ministro del Interior que revocara la autorización para la búsqueda.
Finalmente se resolvió el tema del permiso y la expedición siguió adelante, pero sin embargo regresó a Buenos Aires, obviamente sin resultados positivos.
La historia tuvo repercusión internacional, llegando a ser comentada en publicaciones como la revista Scientific American.
Más recientemente, en febrero de 1960, se dice que la Armada Argentina persiguió en el lago un objeto submarino no identificado durante 18 días, sin conseguir identificarlo; a lo cual algunas personas lo relacionaron con esta supuesta criatura.
El crecimiento como destino turístico de la ciudad de Bariloche, situada a orillas del Nahuel Huapi, aumentó los supuestos avistamientos ocasionales, al igual que lo que sucede en el lago Ness; pero nunca se ha obtenido un registro gráfico realmente concluyente.
En 1988 se publicaron fotos del Nahuelito en un diario local.
Las fotos fueron tomadas a corta distancia con una cámara no digital y el objeto se encontraba cerca de la costa de la turística Bariloche, situada sobre el Nahuel Huapi, uno de los mayores centros de atracción turística del país.
"No es un tronco de formas caprichosas. No es una ola. El Nahuelito mostró la cara. Lago Nahuel Huapi, sábado 15 de abril, a las 9 horas. No doy mis datos para evitarme futuras molestias", dijo el hombre en una misiva que dejó junto a las fotos.

EL SUEIRO:
Entre los antiguos pobladores de la región del Nahuel Huapi era frecuente el rumor de la existencia de un monstruo al que llamaban "El Sueiro" que es difícilmente descripto ya que decían que "sale de los lagos de noche, posee el cuerpo del tamaño de una vaca y deja huellas como de un pato gigante", también afirmaban que el tal supuesto monstruo es carnívoro, alimentándose muchas veces de las vacas.
Aunque tales rumores más parecen una elaboración criolla del referido mito mapuche de "El Cuero".

EL CUERO:
El cuero, también conocido con el nombre de cuero del agua, manta o manta del Diablo, es un animal acuático de la mitología mapuche y posteriormente incluido en la mitología del sur de Chile y de Argentina, y en particular en la mitología chilota.
Esta criatura tendría una apariencia muy similar al de un cuero de vacuno extendido de gran tamaño.
En el borde de su cuerpo poseería unos apéndices similares a unas garras o espinas filosas como garfios.
Sobre un extremo de su cuerpo, en donde se cree estaría la zona que correspondería a su cabeza, sobresaldrían dos apéndices similares a tentáculos que terminarían en un par de ojos desorbitados de un color rojizo.
En el centro de la parte de abajo de su cuerpo, estaría su boca, muy parecida a una enorme ventosa, con la cual podría absorber completamente los fluidos de su presa, hasta dejarla seca y muerta.
Debido a su cuerpo aplanado, algunas personas lo asocian con una criatura semejante a una mantarraya.
Las leyendas cuentan que estas criaturas estarían habitando en numerosos lagos, lagunas y ríos de los territorios del sur de la Argentina y de Chile, y en menor medida en su cercano mar.
En aquellos lugares, como el caso del archipiélago de Chiloé, se cuenta que atacaría principalmente presas animales y en menor medida a seres humanos y embarcaciones pequeñas.
Sus ataques serían más frecuentes al atardecer, acercándose de manera sigilosa a su presa; que puede estar en la orilla, o bien bebiendo o bañándose en el agua, o dentro de una embarcación.
Se dice que luego de estar lo suficientemente cerca, con sus poderes hipnotizaría a su víctima; y posteriormente mediante sus afiladas uñas atraparía a su víctima o a la embarcación y la arrastraría hacia al fondo.
Ya en el fondo, envolvería rápidamente a su presa y la mataría por sofocamiento; y ahí la devoraría absorbiéndole completamente la sangre y otros fluidos.
Para lograr poder matar a un cuero, se necesitaría la ayuda de una Machi experta, la cual con sus habilidades atraería al cuero hacia la orilla.
Al tenerlo ya a la vista, lo engañaría arrojándole ramas de calafate.
El Cuero, engañado por el poder de la Machi, creería que las ramas serían una posible presa; sin embargo, al atacar y apretar con fuerza las ramas, las espinas de las ramas se enterrarían en su cuerpo y el cuero se desgarraría y sangraría hasta morir.
Debido a sus características, el Cuero suele ser a veces confundido con "El Guirivilo".
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
EL GUIRIVILO:
o cuchivilu (del castellano dialectal cuchi: cerdo y del mapudungún filu: culebra), es un animal acuático fantástico de la mitología chilota.
Se le atribuyen los destrozos que se producen en los corrales de pesca (un método tradicional de pesca de Chiloé, abandonado en la década de 1980 por disposiciones legales).
es una criatura del tamaño de un gran cánido, que se presenta como un ser con cabeza de zorro.
Pero con el cuerpo largo, similar a una culebra (incluso con escamas, aletas similar a una Serpiente marina).
Y una gran y larga cola de zorro que tiene en su extremo unas uñas, que utiliza como garra, y con la cual produce también torbellinos.
Según las leyendas, el Guirivilo es un tipo de " Zorro de agua" de fuerza descomunal que habita en los remansos intensivos de los ríos y en aguas cenagosas.
Se dice que utiliza su extraña y gran cola con uñas, como una garra para enredar a hombres y animales que se bañan en sus aguas, con el fin de arrastrarlos al fondo para alimentarse de los ahogados.
Esta criatura hace que el nivel del agua baje, para animar a gente que intente cruzarlo que lo hace se parecen seguras; e igualmente sería la causa de los torbellinos peligrosos que matan a las personas que intentan cruzar los ríos.
No suele salir a la tierra, ya que este cambio provoca terribles temblores en su cuerpo, como si estuviera sintiendo un gran frío.
Se dice que la única manera segura de cruzar un río en el cual viva un Guirivilo es en una embarcación.
Pero si se desea que el Guirivilo, deje de vivir en ese lugar, la persona debe conseguir una buena Machi, o un Calcu que acepte ayudar.
Si es un Calcu, a este deben ser ofrecidos regalos a cambio del servicio del retiro de Guirivilo.
La Machi o Calcu realizaría una ceremonia que consiste en caminar a través del río hasta que alcance el torbellino, luego de lo cual se zambulle.
Posteriormente nadaría luego a la superficie, y traería capturado al Guirivilo mediante sus capacidades mágicas.
Ya atrapado en la superficie, la Machi o el Calcu procedería a amenazar a la criatura con un cuchillo, diciéndole que lo va a mutilar si sigue dañando a otras personas que intenten cruzar o bañarse en ese sitio.
Luego de la amenaza, lanzaría al Guirivilo nuevamente dentro del agua; y el torbellino o los torbellinos se contraerían y después desaparecerían.
Se dice que luego de la ceremonia, la gente vería que el nivel del agua baja, haciendo que el bañarse o el cruzar el río o estero sea más fácil.
Igualmente se dice que la criatura se mudaría a otra parte, para atormentar probablemente a la gente río o estero abajo, o en otro diferente.
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
EL TREHUACO:
Su nombre se origina del idioma mapudungún, donde trewa es: "perro" y ko:"agua".
Es un animal fantástico del agua presente en la mitología chilota, descrito como un bello animal, de firme musculatura, extraordinaria fuerza, y un gran y negro pelaje con una apariencia muy similar a la de un gran perro.
Según la leyenda, se dice que en Chiloé, en las cercanías de Yaldad, existe una laguna encantada; en la cual habitaría esta criatura.
Se cree que si una mujer se acerca a esta laguna y recita ciertos versos mágicos, hará que las aguas de la laguna se alejaran hacia el mar, de la misma forma que si fuera un río; y en el momento de secarse la laguna, en el centro de lo que era la laguna, aparecerá el Trehuaco.
Luego si la mujer lo llama, este se acercará rápidamente hacia ella; y en ese momento comenzaran a tener una relación sexual.
Posteriormente, ya cumplido el deseo de la mujer, y ya satisfecho el Trehuaco; la criatura se volverá al centro de la laguna.
Estando ya en el centro, comenzara a lanzar roncos aullidos, haciendo que las aguas nuevamente retornen a la laguna y así volverá a desaparecer en las profundidades de la laguna; hasta que una mujer lo llame nuevamente para cumplir sus deseos amorosos.
En el caso de la mujer, se dice que luego de que el Trehuaco desaparece ella se quedara dormida, y posteriormente despertará al lado de la puerta de su casa. También se cree que si alguna persona sorprende a la inusual pareja, el Trehuaco desaparecerá inmediatamente; y la mujer quedará con una gran melancolía, que le durara por mucho tiempo.

Cannonsburgh Village is a collection of historic structures from the Rutherford County area moved to this spot as part of America's Bicentennial in 1976. Cannonsburgh is the original name of Murfreesboro.
The Money Woman bridge was originally west of Smyrna where an old alignment of Almaville Road crossed Stewart's Creek. The old one lane iron bridge with a wooden driving surface was quite inadequate when it was replaced and removed in the 1970s, at just the right time to be placed at this new village.
But why is it called the Monkey Woman bridge?
Back in the 1950's, there was an urban legend which became quite popular regarding the area around this bridge, including a nearby cemetery. Many people claimed to see a half-woman, half-monkey in this area.
The story was given more credibility when local journalist Ed Bell stopped on the bridge one night to look at the creek. According to his story, the Monkey Woman jumped on the hood of his car!
The legend has survived for many decades. A friend who lived in the area told me how the replacement bridge which is now on One Mile Lane is still called the Monkey Woman Bridge. He and his friends would sometimes hang out there on Halloween night, until they got scared and ran home.
I'm not going to tell you what you should or shouldn't believe about this story. However, the crew who dug up this old bridge to have it moved here apparently also found some remains.
Check out my video of this bridge and Cannonsburgh Village here: youtu.be/3aMSDLB7Vls
Back in 2020 I painted this vest with great big cute mothman cryptid (Yes, I live nearby to where the mothman legend came about.) and a parade of Fresno Nightcrawlers around the bottom edge. Sadly, I don’t really wear it as I typically like my vests cropped above my big stupid butt. I have some more ideas of additional things to add to it. My brain is bubbling over with creative ideas because I am not able to sit down and work on them. I forgot how much fun I had making this vest. Here’s to me staying motivated through this busier time so when winter comes around I am able to actually bring these tenuous ideas to fruition.
The Anima Arcanum found in the high passes of the First Great Chain mountains are barely understood. Once acquired and taken as samples they may shift their positions, almost imperceptibly until the form seen in great Museums of Lysandria City is far removed from what was seen on the cliff face. On at least three occasions a Pioneer and her Apprentice were able to stabilize a Lapis Natator that had completely separated from its native rocky matrix. Although for reasons no one understood, such samples always vanished from their containers before reaching the city.

Commentary.
Spring snow in the Highlands.
South-West from Dores beach this image shows nearly the whole length of Loch Ness.
It certainly shows twenty of the twenty-five miles of its length
from Fort Augustus to Abban Water and Loch Dochfour.
The three-hundred and fifty-mile fault line of which it is a part,
extending from the north part of the Moray Firth to Ireland,
reaches a vertical height of over a mile, when adding the height of Ben Nevis to the depth of Loch Ness.
At Urquhart Bay the chasm created by tectonic movement and subsequent glaciers, reaches two miles in width.
In this view, Urquhart Bay, is seen on the right,
just below the snowy heights of Meall-Fhuar Mhonaidh, at 700 metres or 2,300 feet.
On this day it was no more than a giant mill-pond
but in misty conditions, as darkness descends,
its mood can become malevolent, sinister and un-nerving.
Whether prehistoric cryptids swim in its murky, peaty waters
or not, it can stir the blood and the imagination.
Today, peaceful and full of promise,
spring was here!
Spot-bellied Eagle Owl
The spot-bellied eagle-owl (Bubo nipalensis), also known as the forest eagle-owl is a large bird of prey with a formidable appearance. It is a forest-inhabiting species found in the Indian Subcontinent and Southeast Asia. This species is considered part of a superspecies with the barred eagle-owl (Bubo sumatranus), which looks quite similar but is allopatric in distribution, replacing the larger spot-bellied species in the southern end of the Malay Peninsula and the larger island in Southeast Asia extending down to Borneo.
The spot-bellied eagle-owl is a large species of owl. It measures from 50 to 65 cm (20 to 26 in) in length. It is the sixth longest owl in the world on average and has the ninth longest wings of any living owl. The ear-tufts of the spot-bellied are very long and conspicuously of variable length, giving them a somewhat scraggly appearance at the tips. The ear-tufts of the spot-bellied eagle-owl measure up to 63 to 76 mm (2.5 to 3.0 in) in length. Most eagle-owls are well-feathered on both their leg and toes, while the barred eagle-owl is featherless on the toes and feathered on the legs, and the spot-bellied eagle-owl has feathered legs and feet, but the terminal digits of the toes are bare before the talons. The feet and talons as formidable as any eagle-owl, being very large, heavy and powerful for their size.
The spot-bellied eagle-owl is overall a stark, grayish brown bird, with dark, coarse brown coloration over the back and upper wings. The throat and underparts are mainly pale fulvous in color with black and white horizontal stripes along the flanks of the body that become broad spots on the abdomen and under tail coverts. On the wings, the primaries are dark brown with lighter brown stripes and the secondaries are more heavily barred with buff-brown coloration. The lores are covered in bristly feathers and the cheeks are brownish-white with black feather shafts. The large ear tufts slant off to the sides.
This owl is noted for its strange, human-sounding call, and it has been suggested that it is the same as the cryptid known as ulama or "Devil Bird" in Sri Lanka. A local name is Maha Bakamuna ("large horned owl"). According to www.cryptozoology.com, in July 2001 it was confirmed that ulama description perfectly matches spot-bellied eagle-owl. This call consists of a scream, which rises and then falls in tone. The territorial call of the species, like that of most other eagle-owls, consists of low hoots with two-second intervals between hoos. The voice is booming, deep and carries quite far. It is usual for forest-dwelling owls (and many different kinds of birds) to have an extensive and complex range of vocalizations since vision is more limited than in open or semi-open habitats. However, the spot-bellied eagle owl has relatively small ear openings even for a member of the genus Bubo, suggesting that some territorial behaviour is carried out visually instead of auditorily.
This species is distributed the Lower Himalayas from Kumaon east to Burma, thence to central Laos and central Vietnam. They are found throughout the Indian subcontinent and peninsular Southeast Asia down into the southernmost limits of the range in Sri Lanka and to 12 degrees north in southern Thailand. The spot-bellied eagle-owl dwells mainly in primary or older second growth forests. Potentially, they can come to inhabit nearly all varieties of land-based habitats but prefer those such as dense, evergreen forests or moist deciduous forests within its range, though can range secondarily into tropical valleys, terrai and shola in the lower hills of India. Although often considered uncommon to somewhat rare, recent photographic evidence indicates that they are particularly widely found in different parts of India and may simply avoid detection, so long as appropriate wooded habitat remains.
The spot-bellied eagle-owl is nocturnal and often spends its day hidden in the dense foliage of large forest trees. However, they have been observed on the move and even hunting during the day, especially in forests with minimal human disturbance. Their activity normally picks up at dusk as they begin to hunt. This species is generally uncommon, likely needing large hunting and breeding territories and thus occurs at low densities. However, it continues to occur over a large range and is not thought to be conservation dependent. Areas, where deforestation occurs, are likely to be vacated by this species, which is perhaps the only widespread threat faced by this owl.

I like this mural, partially because it reminds me of the first time I went viral on the internet.
In 2007, the head of the Creature of Sugar Flat Road appeared in the window of Cuz's Antique Store on the town square in Lebanon, TN. See my picture here: flic.kr/p/2kcCt6
Supposedly, this was the remains of a Cryptid hit by a car in 1989. It's obviously fake, but made for a fun story.
I posted my photo to Flickr in my early days on the platform, and then shared the photo to my blog. A couple months later, the radio program "Coast to Coast A.M." had a segment on this and linked to my blog. The comments left behind are great.
Not long after, the Antique store went out of business. The head was purchased by a curiosity shop in Chattanooga. A few years later, they are also out of business and I have not learned of the current whereabouts (assuming it's still intact).
I haven't thought about this in years when I was delighted to find this mural at the Chattanooga Choo Choo. Artist Catlant painted this in 2016. It is painted in the style of the posters for the touring Freak shows. Alive!
I visited the Chattanooga Choo Choo late in 2022 about the time they were removing the worn down train cars. This provided a nice long distant view of this painting, other than the caution tape which runs across.
