Appalachian Cryptids and Creatures

David J. Hardie takes you on an exciting visual journey of Cryptids and Creatures from Appalachia. Each beast is vividly brought to life with dynamic and vivid color and detail—leaping off the page at you!
This encyclopedic collection covers it all. You’ll learn about West Virginia’s infamous MOTHMAN, the grotesque GRAFTON MONSTER and the mysterious BRAXXIE. You’ll get to hang out with the big guy himself—Sasquatch—and a half dozen of his closest relatives including the SHEEPSQUATCH and Ohio GRASSMAN.
Learn about the sinister SNALLYGASTER and his mortal nemesis, the wolfish DWAYYO! Other legends making an appearance are the nasty DOGMAN, the wild GOATMAN, and the insatiable WENDIGO. You’ll even be introduced to some fo the lesser known critters such as the viscous SNARLY YOW, the green-thumber VEGETABLE MAN, and the utterly miserable SQUONK.

The best compendium of supernatural beings from West Virginia and surrounding states I’ve ever seen. Hardie’s artistic vision is out-of-this-world stunning! --Erin Turner, author of Monsters and Ghosts of West Virginia
