If anyone here specifically collects cryptids or yokai or other folkloric or mythical monsters, I started a Facebook group for collectors here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/363253000519094/ cryptids and yokai collectors group by malinablue, on Flickr I belong to a lot of toy groups and a lot of yokai and cryptozoology groups, but it seemed like there was no group out there for those who collect cryptids and yokai. If this interests you, please join! cindy
I think you will find lots of folks here enjoy cryptids and such sorry I am not on FB but its good to hear there are support groups for what was once nearly a word of mouth topic 1 of my personal favorites is the Hopkinsville Goblins tale 1 of the most difficult to get info on was the Albino Mothman that appeared right before the Chernobyl meltdown/disaster
Folks sure are digging up the old gold from threads here lately! That post of Missy's is one of my favorites, like I literally bookmarked that thread.
That is a wonderful story. And a wonderful piece. And not to detract from it any, but that same store now sells that Flatwoods online for $28! https://www.bear-heaven.com/category.asp?CATID=455 cindy
A conundrum of cryptids: (Colors and saturation were manipulated just a bit as I wanted something colorful for the banner for my cryptid group. So if you collect these too and are worried you missed a colorway, you didn't.) 10683668_10203153404056642_1081961840275662395_o by malinablue, on Flickr https://www.facebook.com/groups/363253000519094/
