Searching the Loch Ness of Newfoundland
Does “Cressie” swim the waters of Crescent Lake in Newfoundland? Sightings of this giant creature have been reported for years, much like the Loch Ness monster, but no evidence has been found. In this article from Skeptical Inquirer, Joe Nickell goes in search of the elusive creature.
Sightings of a “monster” in the lake date back to the turn of the last century when a resident known as “Grandmother Anthony” spied a giant serpentine creature while she was picking berries. From the 1940s to the present, there have been a dozen or so sightings, although without photographs to date. Most descriptions are of a dark, eel-like creature, up to twenty-five or more feet long.
