Description
106 years before the appearance of the now-infamous mysterious lights over Phoenix, Arizona, another U.S. city was terrorized by a seemingly otherworldly visitor that inexplicably appeared in its skies in September of 1891. The Crawfordsville Monster, as it would be dubbed, would be seen by some as a harbinger of doom, while it would cause others to speculate about the existence of great atmospheric beasts living in the ether overhead.  Join hosts Laura Kram and Creepy Acres' very own resident Bigfoot, Sam Squatch, as they speak with historian John LeMay,  author of "Space Monsters of the Old West", "Strange West Magazine", the "Cowboys & Saurians" book series, as well as co-author of "The Real Cowboys & Aliens" book series. It's time for This Week in Creepy History!

John LeMay is the author of over 50 books, Creator of the "Strange West" magazine,  and co-creator of the "Plot Pit" Podcast. 

You can find John LeMay  on Facebook or Instagram.

AND you can find his books on his Website bicepbooks.com
