Montana - The Flathead Lake Monster

For over a century, the legend of Flessie has haunted the depths of Montana’s Flathead Lake. A massive, serpentine creature said to be longer than a city bus, with slick black skin and eyes that shimmer like jewels. Some call it folklore, others swear they’ve seen it slither just beneath the water’s surface. But what if we’ve misunderstood the legend all along? In this episode, we dive deep into the chilling origins of the Flathead Lake Monster, exploring eyewitness accounts, local records, and the stories that refuse to fade. But that’s just the beginning. What happens when a monster washes ashore, revealing a truth far worse than its own existence? I tell an original tale that reimagines the Flessie legend with a sinister twist that makes one ask... What if the monster was never the real threat?
