SHAPESHIFTERS AMONG US! Horrible Transitions in Modern Encounters
Q: Thoughts on portals?
Portals may exist, as suggested by encounters with beings that suddenly appear or vanish.
SHAPESHIFTERS AMONG US! Horrible Transitions in Modern Encounters
Q: Do monsters shape-shift to look like specific humans?
It has happened before, with people swearing they've seen something transform into someone they know.
LIVING GARGOYLES! Worldwide Encounters With Winged Humanoids
Q: Do you think a gargoyle is some type of a dragon?
Maybe. I mean, if all dragons are the same size as humans, then maybe it is, but maybe it's a smaller dragon. Who knows?
LIVING GARGOYLES! Worldwide Encounters With Winged Humanoids
Q: If so, do you think that maybe some witnesses have gotten these cryptids confused with each other?
Yeah, I think they could have, but who knows?
LIVING GARGOYLES! Worldwide Encounters With Winged Humanoids
Q: Lon Strickler, do you think that Gargoyles are one of the oldest cryptids?
It's a possibility, but then again, people could be mistaking it for something else as well.
