Cryptid Ohio

What goes bump in the night in the Buckeye State? Join us as we hunt for all the creatures that call Ohio home. From Bigfoot to the Frogman, we’ll investigate them all!

What monsters call Ohio home? We'll discuss the sightings and folklore of strange creatures around the Buckeye State. We will talk about the Grassman, Frogman, Bigfoot, and even look to the West Virginia border for a Mothman sighting. After a brief history of our cryptids, we'll also talk about their place in pop culture and the numerous festivals around the state. We'll finish by talking about books and movies attendees can check out for more information (or maybe just for fun!)
