Cryptids of North America

Overview

The weather is changing and things are getting spooky. If you find yourself enthralled by the pacific northwest’s history of Bigfoot sightings, wondered if the Jackalope could be real, or have even seen disembodied pants walking late one California evening, this list is for you.

Cryptids of North America has been an on-again-off-again project I pick up every year around October. The goal was to illustrate at least one legendary folklore creature from each state in the US. Without further ado, here is the finished North American collection of over 50 cryptids.
