A nice specialized look at monster sightings in the Land of Lincolm. Ignore Chicago and you have a lot farmland as well as plenty of forest. Southern Illinois is covered by the Shawnee National Forest. Read about the Pias a Bird, pretty much the trademark of Alton, my hometown overlooking the Mississippi. Also read up on the Big Muddy Monster (Bigfoot), alligators in the sewers, mysterious panther sightings, phantom kangaroos, thunferbirds, lake monsters, and more. Troy Taylor is the go-to guy in the subject, author of well over 100 books on ghosts and the paranormal, true crime, and natural disasters. (
