Cryptozoology and Other Oddities

And I do believe it is due time for me to answer the curiosity of the various number of times it’s been asked what has started my peak in the paranormal and the oddities of cryptid world.

As long as I can remember, I have always been fascinated by the unexplained. I think the first thing I ever really became obsessed with was the Chupacabra and a few google searches later and it quickly became the Loch Ness and Bigfoot. Now, I have never had any encounters with odd creatures..but, I have had paranormal happenings.

My experience is with Shadow People.

I was about 14 or 15 at the time and I was sound asleep in my bed and I suddenly woke up. I don’t know why, maybe because it was there, but when I looked at the foot of my bed there was a hooded man. There was no face, no eyes, just darkness staring at me in the shape of a man. I of course freaked out and promptly ran out of my room throwing a chair in my distress to try and hurt and or stall whatever it was..I woke up my entire house and upon entering my room with a knife (I live in a house of women, so when it comes to doing man things, I always have to do it.) I didn’t find anything at all. I however moved out of my room because I always felt like something was watching me..

Push forward two years later and I started to get over my paranoia of being watched and I was enjoying a nap in one of the other rooms in my house and I could have swore I saw something out of the corner of my eye. I suddenly felt something around my neck, gripping hard, and squeezing. I couldn’t speak and I couldn’t move. I tried very hard to do both but just couldn’t bring myself to do either. Finally, I could, and this time I didn’t yell or scream for help being older, I faced it myself..

There was nothing there.

It was broad daylight and I was staring nothing in the face.

I still to this day every once in a while see weird shadows moving about on the walls and the ceiling tiles. Every once in a while it always feels like someone is watching me. Honestly, I wish whatever it was, would just sit down with me and talk to me and tell me what the hell it is..

But, I don’t think that’ll ever happen.

But if it ever wanted a mutual conversation, I am game.  

Once again, if anyone else has photos, videos, or whatever of weird/paranormal things you have encountered, go ahead and submit it!

I always love to hear stories and or debunk things.

And just like that, there are things to explain, question, and explore..

Looking forward to this one a lot.

This is a true story. It happened during the fall semester. I live in New England for school and was walking around a state park with my friend. This was my first encounter with this creature. We had been walking around for an hour or so, exploring the area, and came upon a huge lake. We were walking along the lake shore and movement caught my eye from the other side of the lake. We stopped for a second to try and make out what was up ahead. I’m sort of a pansy so seeing this thing scared me.

It looked like a dark, hairy creature. It was leaning over and looked like it was drinking from the lake. From what I could tell, it had a face like an aardvark but the snout was shorter. It had a body like a chimp but the limbs were longer. We stood there watching this thing for a few seconds before it noticed us. It was a split second before it ran back towards the trees, but when it looked towards us I saw it’s eyes and I got chills. It’s circular eyes were a white color. It had no black pupil, just plain white. It ran quickly but I could tell when it turned around that it had a humped back. It was tall, probably between six and seven feet high. We watched it jump up and noticed that it had really big feet. When it jumped into the tree, it steadied itself on the bottom branch before it disappeared up higher. My friend ran around the lake, trying to keep the creature in his sight. I ran behind my friend even though I was scared out of my mind because it was better than being alone.

We made it to the side where the creature jumped up into the trees and saw nothing. I wanted to get out but my friend wanted to “investigate” further. We walked around for a little longer, looking up into the trees and around us but saw nothing. After a few minutes though, we heard a knocking sound coming from what seemed straight above us. I got goosebumps and looked up, but didn’t see anything. I was really frightened by this point and forced my friend to turn back and go back to his car. We walked back and heard the knocking distantly but didn’t see the creature again that day.

I have a few more experiences if you are interested. This creature freaks me out and I have no idea what it could be. I’m not really a big believer in cryptozoology or the paranormal, but this creature is really creepy.

The picture attached is a picture I took of the being last week, when a few friends and I went into the state park. Excuse how blurry it is, I made a sharp movement and it’s really zoomed in.

Searching for more interesting things on Amityville.

Rather hard to find something unique and worth talking about..
