In this episode of the Compendium, we delve deep into the murky waters of the Loch Ness Monster legend. As one of the most famous cryptids in history, the tale of Nessie has captivated many. But what if the entire story had a different twist? We explore how Marmaduke Weatherall played a pivotal role in one of the most sensational hoaxes associated with the monster. Journey with us as we sift through fake news, witness mysterious Nessie sightings, and uncover what the Natural History Museum discovered about those infamous prints. It's a tale of taxidermy, deceit, and the lengths one man would go to fool a world eager for mystery.
