Today, we take on the infamous Crytpid, The Snallygaster with our special guest and DM of Kord v. Crytpid, Ben! The Snallygaster is a legendary cryptid that is said to inhabit the rural areas of Maryland, in the United States. The creature is described as a dragon-like beast with a long pointed beak, wings, and tentacles or octopus-like appendages. It has been reported to prey on livestock and humans alike and is said to emit a blood-curdling scream that can be heard from miles away. The legend of the Snallygaster dates back to the 18th century and has inspired countless sightings, hoaxes, and even a local beer named after the creature. Did you know that the Snallygaster was once used for political propaganda? Listen to find out what Kiki has unearthed in today's episode!

We are wrapping up our massacre series with the Paxton Boys Massacre.

The Paxton Boys were a group of vigilantes active in Pennsylvania during the 18th century, specifically in the 1760s. They were primarily of Scots-Irish origin and were angered by what they perceived as the inadequate protection of their settlements from Native American attacks by the colonial government. In December 1763, they carried out a violent massacre against the peaceful Conestoga Native American tribe and later attacked the Lancaster jail where Native Americans were being held for their protection. That jailhouse now serves as a theater and according to some, harbors the ghosts of those murdered as well as a beloved actress.

Our featured music in this episode is from SpellBook with their song " Rehmeyers Hollow".
