 Some interesting sources I may want to check out:


Cryptids of North America

The Monsters You Should Never Find

Cryptid Database

Research in Cryptozoology


Episodes/ Stories to Include:

My thought right now is focusing on North American Cryptids because there is a geographical aspect to this. I want to take the readers on a journey/ safari as we search for proof of Cryptids existing. I think the POV of the author is just a curious scientist or excited park ranger that wants to prove to their coworkers or the world that these creatures exist. A fun road trip vibe in a suburban car on the hunt of some truth. The pathing could be as follows: 

-Bigfoot/Sasquach

-Jersey Devil

-Chupacabra 

(Possibly the Oklahoma Lake Monster) 

The overarching story is just the ability to prove that these creatures are real and how to find them, looking at what people have seen in the past, the lore behind the cryptids and what proof others have found of the existence or lack thereof. 

I want to be able to give a fun trip-like experience to the viewers so they can feel as though they are going with me on a road trip to discover something awesome.

 (Somewhat National Treasure-esque).

Week 13 Reading Notes B: King Arthur

  Photo by  Omar Prestwich  on  Unsplash This story is part of the King Arthur unit . Story source: King Arthur: Tales of the Round Table by Andrew Lang and illustrated by H. J. Ford (1902). Sir Lancelot tied his horse to a tree and stopped for a bit. He dreamed of knights and woke up and his horse was gone so he left by foot.  Sir Bors was told by the hermit that he must wear this garment instead of a shirt on his quest for the grail. He took off his clothes and put on a scarlet coat. On shore he found a vessel and as soon he stepped foot onto the boat it took off as if he had been flying.  The king fell ill, and soon he may die. The three knights gave their forgiveness while he was on his death bed. Galahad was proclaimed king, Galahad's soul left his body and was carried by angels up to heaven. Since then no man dared to say they had seen the holy grail. When a year and two months passed Sir Percivale died as well and was buried by his side.
