Product Description
What do UFO's, Bigfoot, Pterosaurs, Leprechauns, Lizard Men, Water Monsters and Werewolves all have in common? They have all been encountered in the Bluegrass State! In "Mysterious Kentucky", the reader will discover how Kentucky ranks as one of the strangest states in America and lays claim to an astounding number of bizarre events and is haunted by a plethora of unexplained phenomena that is sure to send shivers down the spines of even the most hardened anomaly buffs. Does Bigfoot really prowl the lonely bottomlands and virgin forests of the region? According to thousands of Kentuckians he does! And he does not walk here alone - in addition to this man-beast, readers will also discover the 'Beast of LBL"; the "Spottsville Monster"; a pack of terrifying werewolves; water creatures that lurk beneath Kentucky lakes and rivers; and more! You will also explore the state's mysterious past, complete with vanished races, diminutive beings and impossibly ancient cultures and the anomalous artifacts they left behind. Find out what secrets the ancient Native American burial mounds and immense cave systems conceal - like giant human skeletal remains, petrified mummies and more! With mysteries in the sky, on the land and in the water, "Mysterious Kentucky" has it all and is sure to satisfy anyone with a taste for the unknown. Discover why Kentucky was called "the dark and bloody ground" --- if you dare!
Reader ReviewsI should have spent my money on another book of Kentucky. There was not one decent story of hauntings by ghosts. In other Whitechapel books, tagged with "Mysterious", you get a well rounded variety of history, mystery, spooks, and then some creapy creatures. One of the drawings of a sea serpent looked suspiciously like Cecil the Seasick Sea Serpent from Beany and Cecil. I'm so afraid! For those looking for good stories to tell around a campfire, this is a great book. I wish it were titled more closely to its content. I could have gotten Ghosts of Louiville instead, where I can assume I will read some good paranormal stories. I've been to KY more than any other state than my own. I love the state. This book gave me nothing to look back on, and say... Yes, I yearn to go back there. I would rather give this a 2.5, but that is not possible. Troy Taylor, please visit Kentucky and give us the ghostly lowdown! Please!
