Ep. 71 - The Lake Erie Monster

Since the 1700s, Ohio settlers have been reporting sightings of an unusual aquatic species, describing it as 17- to 60-feet long with a sleek body. In the 90s, voters in a newspaper poll named the local legend South Bay Bessie and businessmen raised a reward fund to pay anyone who could catch it. But the Lake Erie Monster remains elusive, and speculation continues as to what the serpentine encounters may have been. www.ohiomysteries.com [email protected] www.patreon.com/ohiomysteries www.twitter.com/mysteriesohio www.facebook.com/ohiomysteries Music: One Foot in the Mud, by Larry Elefante.
