"The author of Freaky Florida shares a unique guide to the state's strangest attractions—from Florida Bigfoot to lost cemeteries, UFO sightings, and more.
Most people know Florida as the land of endless sunny beaches, Disney World, and NASA shuttle launches. But the state is also home to many hidden mysteries, eerie legends, and tales of bizarre creatures. In Eerie Florida, author Mark Muncy and photographer Kari Schultz provide a unique guide to these truly unique sites across the Sunshine State.
The Everglades is home to the elusive Skunk Ape—also known as Florida Bigfoot—a strange bipedal creature recognized by its odor. An uncanny doll reputed to have a life of its own greets visitors in a Florida Keys museum. An ancient monster is reported to roam the rivers in the northeast corners of the state, and in South Florida, a man built Coral Castle—also known as America's Stonehenge—via mysterious means. Join Mark Muncy and Kari Schultz as they uncover the history behind the state's creepiest stories and unusual locations."
"Gear up for a frightful jaunt into the darkest reaches of the ancient Appalachians.
Folks deep within the Appalachian hollers lean close to the campfire to share stories of the inexplicable with hushed awe. Monsters rumbling in the hills. Strange lights darting through the pitchblack night sky. Horrible occurrences, almost ineffable in their bizarre tragedy.
"Tall tales," you might say.
Tell that to the Flatwoods monster in Braxton County, West Virginia. Or the Goat Man of Louisville—look into his humanoid eyes and let him know you don't believe. And what of those apparitions in Mammoth Cave's Corpse Rock, or the Satanspawn known as the Jersey Devil that attacked a trolley car? How do you respond when confronted by these mysteries?
From metaphysical energy that swirls near the Serpent Mound in Ohio to Point Pleasant's Mothman legacy, Mark Muncy and Kari Schultz explore the dark history lurking in the shadows of Appalachia.
Ready by Mark Muncy, author and expert on the strange with appearances on shows such as Ancient Aliens, Ripley’s Believe it or Not, Return of Robert the Doll, and more!"
