Resource: Mythical Lake Monsters

I really enjoyed this wonderful chart of the mythical lake monsters of the United States! Click here for a full-sized view of the map and its key which comes from the AtlasObscura.com website.


Monsters #1-22 are "Nessie" monsters, but the remaining monsters represent a variety of mythical creatures, such as giant killer octopuses and horse-headed alligators! Cool!


The accompanying article at AtlasObscura.com features detailed information about some of the wilder legends. It even includes the giant octopus that is supposed to live in Lake Thunderbird right in Oklahoma!
