International Cryptozoology Museum

Organisation 4 stories, 1958 to 2012

Portland, Maine. That is where the International Cryptozoology Museum keeps the strange alive, including the legacy of the Dover Demon from 1977. Through Loren Coleman, the museum also became a voice of caution on lake monster footage. In 2011 he urged care over Tom Pickles' Bownessie photograph from Windermere, noting that such shapes are sometimes garbage bags tied together. In 2012 he studied Hjörtur Kjerúlf's Lagarfljót Worm video. He saw what looked like a constructed, snake-like object with rigid sections, and raised the possibility of deliberate fakery.
