Day 10: Loch Ness Monster

Type: Lake Monster
Location: Loch Ness Lake, Scotland
First Sighting: 565 AD
Last Sighting: Recent Times

[Description in Alt]

#KingOli1999 #Cryptid #Cryptober2026 #ArtistOnBlueSky #TradtionalArt

DESCRIPTION: The Lake of Loch Ness is one of the deepest lakes in the world, with a 230 meters depth, with various wildlife living in it. But mystery surrounds the lake of a Beast living deep in the waters, known as the ‘Loch Ness Monster’.

The Loch Ness Monster (sometimes Nessie for short) is a black or grey rubbery skinned sea serpent about 20 feet long with a hump on its back, a long neck and paddling fins. Often closely matching the extinct Plesiosaur.

Sightings of Nessie date back to medieval times of a sea serpent emerging from the waters, and in the 20th century obscured photographs have been taken of it. No evidence has been found of its existence and sightings are mistaken to be otters, eels, seals or logs in the water. Some photographs taken are often fabricated and lead to be hoaxes. But some still believe there is something living deep in the bottom of Loch Ness in the murky waters.

Day 9: Loveland Frogman

Type: Amphibian Humanoid
Location: Clermont County, Ohio US
First Sighting: 1955
Last Sighting: 2016

[Description in Alt]

#KingOli1999 #Cryptid #Cryptober2026 #ArtistOnBlueSky #TradtionalArt

DESCRIPTION: The city of Loveland, in the state of Ohio has had strange sightings of an odd Cryptid, known as the ‘Loveland Frogman’.

The Frogmen are described as 3 to 4 ft tall bipedal creatures that resemble frogs, with webbed hands and feet, and sometimes scales going down their backs.

Witnesses who claimed to have seen the Frogmen range differently, with one incident of an officer seeing one on the road, before climbing a guardrail and jumping into the lake. One incident involved a driver seeing a group of Frogmen and one holding a ‘magic wand’ and casting a spark. However many claim the Frogmen to be a hoax, and some say they’re misidentified as an escaped Iguana without its tail. But in recent times some say they have spotted one, during the rise of the game ‘Pokémon Go’.

Day 8: Jackalope

Type: Mammal Cryptid/ Fearsome Critter
Location: Western North America
First Sighting: 1829
Last Sighting: 1932

[Description in Alt]

#KingOli1999 #Cryptid #Cryptober2026 #ArtistOnBlueSky #TradtionalArt

DESCRIPTION: A local legend from Folklore, has been around since America was first discovered of a strange animal living in the wild, known as a ‘Jackalope’.

Described as a Jackrabbit with deer antlers that is said to be extremely shy, and can run up to 90 miles per hour, and is even said to mimic sounds.

Some claim to have captured Jackalope’s and mounted their heads on walls. But there is little evidence of the animal existing and has lead to be a hoax. But the common explanation could be that of the ‘Shope papilloma virus’ giving rabbits tumours that look like they have horns on their heads.

Day 7: Yeti

Type: Bipedal Humanoid
Location: Glaciers of the Himalayas, Nepal
First Sighting: 6th Century
Last Sighting: Present

[Description in Alt]

#KingOli1999 #Cryptid #Cryptober2026 #ArtistOnBlueSky #TradtionalArt

DESCRIPTION: High in the snowy mountains of the Himalayas, there is said to live a creature from folklore, known as the ‘Yeti’.

The Yeti or sometimes called the ‘Abominable Snowman’ is said to be a bipedal hairy ape like beast, standing at around 8-10 ft tall, with large feet and sometimes having fangs. It’s fur colour ranges from red, brown, grey to white (though white is a common misconception).

Origins of the Yeti date back to Buddhist Mythology, describing them as shy, solitary and peaceful creatures, but in recent times reported sightings of the Yeti have risen, leading to searches for it, but only foot prints in the snow, to bones and fur have been discovered. While there have been no official captures of the Yeti, and things like fur could be from Bears, leading some to believe it’s a hoax. But some say it might exist, and some point to it being related to the extinct ape species, Gigantopithecus. It is one of the many hairy humanoids sighted around the world.

Day 6: Mothman

Type: Flying Humanoid
Location: Point Pleasant, West Virginia US
First Sighting: 1966
Last Sighting: 1967

[Description in Alt]

#KingOli1999 #Cryptid #Cryptober2026 #ArtistOnBlueSky #TradtionalArt

DESCRIPTION: There are stories of encounters of a Cryptid that many have seen in West Virginia in the town of Point Pleasant, referred to as the ‘Mothman’.

Described as a dark winged humanoid, that stands to about 6.5 to 7 feet tall, with a wingspan of nearly 10 feet. Some say the creature is brown or dark, has glowing red eyes, and can fly up to 100 miles per hour.

Sightings have been reported by many. A young couple claimed to have seen the creature flying towards their car in ‘the TNT Area’, and some report of seeing the creature in a cemetery. However the famous known sighting of all, was on December 15th 1967, when the Silver Bridge suddenly collapsed, and some claim to have seen the Mothman flying overhead. Ever since then, sightings of the Mothman ceased. Some speculate the Mothman might’ve been an omen warning of disaster, some say that it was an extraterrestrial. But logical explanations might have been misidentifications involving large Herons, and Owls.

Day 5: Flatwoods Monster

Type: Extraterrestrial
Location: Flatwoods, West Virginia US
First Sighting: 1952
Last Sighting: UNKNOWN

[Description in Alt]

#KingOli1999 #Cryptid #Cryptober2026 #ArtistOnBlueSky #TradtionalArt

DESCRIPTION: West Virginia is known to have many encounters with strange Cryptids, but none is more stranger than the ‘Flatwoods Monster’.

The Flatwoods Monster is a 10 ft tall humanoid being. Described as having a Blood Red face with an Ace of Spades shaped hood, glowing yellow eyes, a metallic green or black body, and sharp clawed fingers. It’s also said to float above the ground.

The first sighting happened on September 12 1952 at 7.15 PM, when three children saw a glowing object in the sky, land near by. They went with their mother, accompanied by a National Guard, to investigate and the group said they smelt a ‘Pungent Mist’ in the air, and when the Guard aimed his flashlight at two glowing lights, they saw the creature. It let out a shrilling hiss, before lunging towards them, causing them to run in fear. Explanations of this encounter claim that there was a reported meteorite at the time, and the creature could’ve been a misidentification of a Barn Owl.

Day 4: Ningen

Type: Oceanic Cryptid
Location: Antarctica, Arctic Ocean
First Sighting: 1960’s
Last Sighting: UNKNOWN

[Description in Alt]

#KingOli1999 #Cryptid #Cryptober2026 #ArtistOnBlueSky

DESCRIPTION: Deep in the icy ocean of the Arctic circle, there have been claims of seeing a giant humanoid within the waters, referred to as ‘Ningen’ (meaning ‘Human’ in Japanese).

Ningen are described as being white and being up to 20 - 30 meters in length, and are said to be humanoid beings from having human like heads and 5 fingered hands. Sometimes they are said to have mermaid like tails instead of legs, and have small eyes and a mouth.

According to one sighting, crew members on deck mistaken one for a submarine, but observed it as not man made, and was alive, until it quickly disappeared. Some have even been spotted on Google Maps near Antarctica. Some explanations, could be a misidentification of beluga whales, sharks, giant squid, or capsized icebergs. But the ocean still holds undiscovered mysteries.

Day 1: Owlman

Type: Flying Humanoid
Location: Mawnan, Cornwall, England
First Sighting: 1976
Last Sighting: 1995

[Description in Alt]

#KingOli1999 #Cryptid #Cryptober2026 #ArtstOnBlueSky

DESCRIPTION: In the village of Mawnan, Cornwall, a flying humanoid cryptid was sighted around a church tower, dubbed the ‘Owlman’.

Described as a humanoid figure resembling that of an owl, with large wings, a human like body and glowing red eyes.

The first sighting of the creature occurred during a families holiday, when two girls claimed to have seen a large man-like creature, flying in circles over the Church Tower! They were so scared that the family cut their holiday short. They’re have been other reportings of the creature, but some experts claim it to be a misidentification of a real Owl or a trick by the illusionist, Tony Doc Shiels.
