To American USMers, what state are you from and can you name any of the cryptids among you?

Hello again. Yet another paranormal post. I'm from the Commonwealth of Virginia and we have quite a few more cryptids and crypitd-related stories than some may think.

We have the Wampus Cat. It is a Native American legend about a large cat walking on its hind legs sighted throughout Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and North Carolina. Not necessarily confined to our state border.

We also have the Bunnyman of Bunnyman's Bridge, hailing from eastern Virginia in Fairfax County, not too awful far from the nation's capitol. It deals with an age-old story from over 100 years ago, about two asylum inmates who escaped, one of which was caught in an ensuing hunt. The other may have been caught after his body was discovered. But in the case of both, they left a trail of mutilated bunnies supposedly. Starting around 1970, during Halloween season, reported sightings of a man in a bunny suit wielding an axe and attacking people and property had been reported for years to come. Another legend (with possibly some truth) are the people since then and maybe the '80s who went to Bunnyman Bridge on Halloween night, attempted to summon the Bunnyman inside the drive-in tunnel by calling his name, and somehow mysteriously ended up being hanged outside and over the tunnel right next to the bridge.

Another legend that is shared with the state of Maryland is 'Chessie', the Chesapeake Bay sea monster/serpent who has been reported sighted in the waters of the Chesapeake Bay for give a take a couple centuries, if not more. Whether it has limbs is debated, but it's usually reported as a long, scaly reptilian being, maybe 20-30 feet or even possibly around 50 feet long. I don't think it's ever posed an outright danger to the public around the bay.

Last but certainly not least, vampire legends around the state. The formidable and impressive tomb of W.W. Pool has a gated entryway. The legend is that it houses a vampiric being and/or W.W. Pool himsef is rumoured to have been a vampire. While he died circa 1913, there is no inscription of date or year of birth. It's been said that Satanists gather around his tomb every Halloween night and chant incantations.

What states are you all from, and I would love to hear your stories about local crpytids and even experiences.

...if you want to hear some really good tales from the cryptid, ask Hey Larry. If you can wait until Saturday, he'll post one under the guise of the JOTW.

...WOW! I just looked up cryptid in the online dictionary
and it describes something VERY much like Hey Larry.
This is my final answer.

...Canada has Ogopogo (B.C.) and Morphix (aka Sasquatch)

"L.D."---I saw that woman, one night. She really did have the longest fingers I've ever seen on a human. Every one of her fingers was at least nine inches long and she looked just like you Great Aunt Lilith.

kronk---Ugh!

According to the locals who have passed down the legend from each generation, they think that a family of these creatures migrated from somewhere near Ottawa, Canada. This why on their annual celebration to draw in tourists they have the mayor in full gorilla costume ( which has never been cleaned ) dancing in the streets with a cart full of poutine and Labatt’s beer.

Tourists think it’s a nice touch, though the costume reek’s really bad.
