American Monsters | Free Book
Bigfoot, the chupacabra, and thunderbirds aren’t just figments of our overactive imaginations—according to thousands of eyewitnesses, they exist, in every corner of the United States. Throughout America’s history, shocked onlookers have seen unbelievable creatures of every stripe—from sea serpents to apelike beings, giant bats to monkeymen—in every region.
Author, investigator, and creature expert Linda S. Godfrey brings the same fearless reporting she lent to Real Wolfmen to this essential guide, using historical record, present-day news reports, and eyewitness interviews to examine this hidden menagerie of America’s homegrown beasts.
In The Press
"Godfrey frequently draws from myth and folklore and cites cases from
history and pop culture, demonstrating extensive knowledge of her
subject matter. The book will prove a handy encyclopedia for
enthusiastic cryptozoologists of all ages."
—Publishers Weekly
Praise for REAL WOLFMEN:
"Her chilling
story of deep woods journeys will fascinate you."
—Whitley Strieber's Dreamland
"An amazing and well-researched look at werewolves in the
US."
—Werewolves.com
“She has the ability to
send chills up and down your spine.”
—Brad Steiger, author of
Real Ghosts, Restless Spirits, and Haunted Places
“Real Wolfmen
is a riveting work of amazing scope and depth. You’ll be hooked from
the first page.”
—Rosemary Ellen Guiley, author of
The Encyclopedia of Vampires and Werewolves
"Godfrey impresses me with the sheer totality of her
information. Nothing is left unexplored, if possible."
—John R. Ellis, Fourth Day Universe
“If I was to ask you what two words are most relevant to
the phenomenon of werewolves and lycanthropes you might well say
“Full” and “Moon.” Or, “Silver” and “Bullet.” Well, you’re definitely
on the right track, but I say those two words are “Linda” and
“Godfrey”! Yep, not only is Linda the most well-known chronicler of
all-things wolfman-themed, but she’s certainly the most prolific one,
too. This new title from Linda is one that I definitely recommend to
anyone and everyone who has voraciously devoured Linda’s previous
studies of the werewolf phenomenon. And if you’re a newcomer to the
subject, and want to learn what it’s really all about,
it’s just about the most important book you can read on the
phenomenon to date. And I don’t write words like that lightly.”
—Nick Redfern, Mysterious Universe
"By the
time you finish
Real Wolfmen: True Encounters in Modern America, you just might
believe."
—Jason Carter, The Writers Journey
"It is hard to believe that such a creature could exist.
However, the witness accounts in Real Wolfmen are often very
compelling. Pick up a copy and see for yourself."
—Alejandro Rojas, Huffington Post
