Listen Later

This week on Spooky Appalachia, we venture across the border into Ohio to investigate five of the most unsettling cryptids reported in the Buckeye State. We dive deep into the lore and documented sightings of these mysterious creatures:

  • The Ohio Grass Man: Discover how this Bigfoot cousin builds huts and why its sightings often leave locals panicked.
  • Charles Mill Lake Monster: Explore the legend of the 7-foot-tall, web-footed humanoid lurking in the reservoir.
  • Orange Eyes: Learn about the massive, glowing-eyed beast that terrorized teenagers at Lovers' Lane and left a trail of local dread.
  • The Melon Heads: Uncover the disturbing legend of Dr. Crowe’s experiments and the feral, large-headed creatures said to roam the woods near Kirtland.
  • The Loveland Frogman: Revisit the classic reports, from the 1955 sighting involving a "sparking wand" to modern encounters during the height of the Pokémon Go craze.

From police reports to chilling eye-witness accounts, we analyze these legendary local legends. Do you think Orange Eyes and the Charles Mill Lake Monster are the same entity? And what exactly is the story behind the Frogman's wand? Let us know your theories in the comments!
