Episode 34: The Flatwoods Monster & Momo, The Missouri Monster | Bigfoot, King of the Forest Podcast
On Episode 34 of the Bigfoot, King of the Forest Podcast Sara & Jeff are back in the studio after a far-too-long hiatus to talk The Flatwoods Monster and MOMO: The Missouri Monster.
We kick the episode off talking about our recent trip to Iceland and about traveling around for the holidays. During the news, Jeff goes into a minor diatribe about the "docu-series" Hellier & Hellier 2, and how he had a slight change of heart about the show once he had a revelation - that is, if the revelation is accurate.
After the news, Sara digs into the history and the legend of The Flatwoods Monster. Also known as the Flatwoods Phantom, the Green Monster, and the Ugly Doll Flatwoodsie , the Flatwoods Monster terrorized Flatwoods, West Virginia in September of 1952.
Next, Jeff discusses the early 1970's in north eastern Missouri - specifically Louisiana, MO, and the case of MOMO, which is short for the Missouri Monster. In 1971, the small river town of Louisiana had a string of sightings of a Bigfoot-like creature that was seen carrying around a dead dog. MOMO is said to have wreaked of a putrid odor and was known to let out an ungodly roar. The sightings were also accompanied by several sightings of unidentified lights in the sky. What was MOMO? Was it an alien, a Bigfoot, or something else entirely? And why has the town of Louisiana, MO all but forgotten the once popular cryptid?
Here are pictures from our stop in Louisiana, MO on the way to Iowa and the entrance to Marzolf Hill (or, what Google Maps told us was Marzolf Hill).
Shout out to the state of West Virginia for owning their weirdness.
