184: National Park Ghosts, Monsters, and Cryptids.

Join us in South Dakota to witness the screams of the Banshee of the Badlands. Venture to Alaska where a cryptid lurks that disguises themselves as our favorite... otters?  Do you believe in the Lizard Man of South Carolina? Because the police sure do, and one sighting led to manhunts with bounties for his capture. Today we're taking you to several different parks to explore the creatures that lurk there.

We love our National Parks and we know you do too but when you're out there, remember to enjoy the view but watch your back.
