About this listen

This week we're in Gambrill State Park in Frederick, Maryland to discuss the Snallygaster, a Germanic-inspired flying cryptid with tentacles on its face! We discuss its appearance and actions, and the legitimacy of newspaper reporting, as well as digging into the sad dark history of how Snallygaster was used to spread fear in the 18th and 19th centuries in America. So join us by the fire to learn about this East Coast cryptid!
