Throw on a tuxedo, grab a seat, and call yourself 007, cos today we're shaking things up with a cool and refreshing cryptid. Does James Bond have any relevance to this episode? Absolutely not. But it's a decent introduction and I don't regret using it. No, this episode leans a little closer to the flying monkeys from The Wizard Of Oz. And that's cos our creature feature tonight IS A FLYING MONKEY; specifically, The Ahool! It's been nearly a century since the only two recorded encounters occurred, but the mystery still leaves us chilled and wondering what it might have been. Was it really a flying monkey or just a giant bat (both terrifying)? Could it have been a strange, large bird? Is it possible that a species of Pterosaur could have survived on the island of Java for millions of years and the Ahool was one of, if not the, last remaining? Or was it simply a lie told by a sad, little man that was nothing more than a slut for attention? That little slut...Tune into our discussion to hear what we have to say about it, and maybe you'll come up with a theory of your own.
