Cryptid Collectibles

10 cryptids are loose on the midway. Card art is a placeholder until the final illustrations arrive.

Legendarycrypt1d.mothman

Mothman

Point Pleasant, West Virginia

Red-eyed winged watcher seen near an old munitions plant. Arrives before bad news, never after.

Field note: Wingspan estimates vary with how scared the witness was.

Rarecrypt1d.jersey-devil

Jersey Devil

Pine Barrens, New Jersey

Hooved, winged and loud. Leaves tracks on rooftops, which is rude.

Field note: Responds poorly to tollbooths.

Rarecrypt1d.chupacabra

Chupacabra

Puerto Rico and the American Southwest

Spined night-raider blamed for empty goat pens. Reports changed shape over the decades.

Field note: Original sightings: bipedal. Later sightings: suspiciously dog-shaped.

Rarecrypt1d.flatwoods

Flatwoods Monster

Braxton County, West Virginia

Spade-headed visitor in a pleated cloak, glowing on a hillside after a streak of light.

Field note: Witnesses mention a metallic smell. Bring a towel.

Uncommoncrypt1d.sasquatch

Sasquatch

Pacific Northwest

Large, shy and permanently out of focus. Has never once been caught on a good camera.

Field note: Footprint casts available at every gift shop for some reason.

Uncommoncrypt1d.loch-ness

Loch Ness Monster

Loch Ness, Scotland

Long-necked lake resident. Surfaces for photographs exactly once per decade.

Field note: The lake is deep, cold and very good at keeping secrets.

Uncommoncrypt1d.dover-demon

Dover Demon

Dover, Massachusetts

Big-headed, thin-limbed figure seen over two nights and then never again.

Field note: Short sighting window. Extremely high hype per minute.

Commoncrypt1d.skunk-ape

Skunk Ape

Florida Everglades

Sasquatch’s swamp cousin, identified mostly by smell before sight.

Field note: Detection range: downwind, roughly one city block.

Commoncrypt1d.nightcrawler

Fresno Nightcrawler

Fresno, California

A pair of walking white trousers, as caught on a security camera.

Field note: Proof that the best cryptids are the ones on CCTV.

Commoncrypt1d.ogopogo

Ogopogo

Okanagan Lake, British Columbia

Serpentine lake dweller with excellent public relations.

Field note: Has its own statue. Most cryptids can only dream.
