"The Big Beast of Lochawe [Scotland]
This animal (Beathach mòr Loch Odha) had twelve legs and was to be heard in winter time breaking the ice. Some say it was like a horse, others, like a large eel."

One of the odder encounters took place on Lough Dubh in the early 1960s, when a monster allegedly tried to clamber out of the lake and attack a schoolmaster and his son whilst out fishing. It was described as cow-sized with short legs, a horn on its nose and covered in bristles.

@MoseleyRecFair I went so far as to glue the pages about mothman in a book I had together as the illustration unnerved me so much

The Bregdi is a #monster from the seas around Shetland which wraps its long fins around ships and pulls them down into the depths. However, it can be scared off by the touch of steel or by throwing an amber bead at it #FolkloreThursday

@MariaStrutz @FranconianExile Owls and peaches, together at last! In China and Japan apparently both are auspicious and can ward off evil, so the combination is doubly powerful

@GemmaKhawaja @ScarredForLife2 This was the main Mothman image that got to me. At least that was over in America though so safely distanced (though still terrifying), Owlman was in England and in woodland just like the ones I knew. The Dover Demon was just odd.
