The Horse Man of Bede Still on the Track

The borough of South Tyneside in the UK is said to be home to three anthropomorphic cryptids: the Cleadon Critter, a Bigfoot-type hairy hominid; the Splitback Demon (an odd “lizard man”); and a hairless, blue-skinned, blue-eyed weirdo called, well, Blue Eyes. But now comes news of a fourth. Witnesses report a man standing in the middle of the road wearing a long, black coat with a hood, who banged on their car with the flat of his hand as it came to a stop. An eccentric human? Not exactly, as although from the waist up the stranger looked reasonably conventional, from the waist down he was anything but. He had two legs, but they were not human legs; they were actually those of a horse. Elsewhere, Loren Coleman discovers that to locals the famous St. Augustine Giant Octopus of 1896 is apparently Florida’s Invisible Monster. Will that change now that it's made the local news as St. Augustine's Monster Mystery.
