Hello folks! Welcome to our first official episode of Ohio Valley Cryptid! In this one, we talk about the Beast of Grafton, or the Grafton Monster, a little cryptid that bothered a small town in West Virginia. Recently, it's been a bit more well-known because of the video game Fallout 76, but even then how accurate is its portrayal?
Reese's mic is a little goofy sounding in this one, but don't worry, later episodes this is fixed!
Here are some sources I used while digging up information on this bad boy:
Visionary Living, Inc.. Monsters of West Virginia (p. 14). Stackpole Books. Kindle Edition.

We would LOVE to hear any person al stories, corrections, or anything of the like relating to spooky stuff! It also doesn't have to be local at all.
