9. Bear Lake Monsters
Dating back to the summer of 1868, Native American legends repeated by pioneer settlers relayed stories of the Monsters of Bear Lake. Yes, as in several monsters! Similar to the Loch Ness monster, the first recorded sighting of these creatures tells of a remarkable 10 different creatures appearing at the same time.
8. Skinwalkers
Although skin walkers are sometimes believed to be the origin of the werewolf story, they are also said to have the ability to transform into any different type of animal at will. Usually, skinwalkers are seen as coyotes, wolves, foxes and even owls or crows.
Some are also said to have the ability to steal the faces of different people and appear as someone you know.
7. The Jersey Devil
If you thought the Jersey Devils were just a hockey team, you might be surprised to learn this long-standing piece of folklore that connects to one of New Jersey's most infamous mythical creatures.
6. The Black Dog of Hanging Hills
Connecticut might seem like the picturesque place for New Yorkers to raise their kids but a dark tale in an area known as the Hanging Hills tells another story. An 1800-acre area known as Hubbard Park, given to the town in the early 1900s, is said to be haunted by a spectral canine known as the Black Dog of the Hanging Hills. Stories of the dog go back to the late 18th century, but it wasn't officially documented until 1891.
5. El Muerto
Most of us are familiar with The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the Headless Horseman, but did you know the state of Texas has a similar mythological creature? In the mid-1800s,the dispute between the United States and Mexico was heating up, and the Texas Rangers, a roving posse of expert gunmen, were formed.
4. The Chenoo
White Walkers aren't just for Game of Thrones fans. The Chenoo, a creature similar to Bigfoot, has been spotted in Maine and is part of a legend from local Wabanaki tribes. Described as a gigantic humanoid with an unending appetite for human flesh, the creature, known by the name Chenoo in Micmac, is a creature feared with a deep primal dread.
3. The Ghost-Witch
In Passamaquoddy and Micmac mythology, the creature of the Ghost-Witch is said to have been born from the body of a shaman who practised black magic. One legend tells the tale of an old witch who died and was buried up in a tree among the branches. When a Native and his wife came along for a place to spend the night, they found the spot under the tree.
2. Catskill Gnomes
In 1609, Henry Hudson sailed into the mouth of the New York river that would later bear his name. After journeying north for several days, he went searching for the Northwest passage to the Orient. However, after not finding the passage he was looking for, he turned and sailed back down the river.
1. La Llorona
Long before the popular Hollywood movie La Llorona came out, the legend of the Weeping Woman had a firm hold on Hispanic culture. The legend of La Llorona starts with the humble beginnings of a woman named Maria who was born in a small village to a peasant family and had two sons. But there are several versions as to who Maria really was.
