I would like to produce a working list of the various types of cryptids reported as existing within the UK and Ireland. Please contribute any you know of, even if it is only a half remembered description without a name.
So far that I know of:
1. Alien Big Cats - various types described. What regions do
they most commonly occur in?
2. Woodwose/Bigfoot - again, where are they believed to occur?
Or are these two separate creatures?
3. Loch Ness Monster and co - I know of a number of lakes and
more commonly, marshes where these are said to occur.
4. Werewolves - Fermanagh - only one report on this and they
were described as double the size of normal wolves, but no
mention is made of shape shifting so they may not be
werewolves.
Would the fair folk be classified in here as well, for lack of a separate forum for them? Anyone have any stories or locations known to be inhabited by them that they could share? Also, different types of fair folk - i.e. fairies, the De Danaan(Irish), Sidh (Irish), sprites, goblins, etc.
Thanks.
