A few of the illustrations from the zine "Oh Orpheus" which I made to accompany an essay about Arcade Fire's use of the Orpheus and Eurydice myth on their latest album.

DAY 18 : 🦇 JERSEY DEVIL 🦇
-
PINE BARRENS, NEW JERSEY
-
Formerly known as the Leeds Devil, this creature is said to be the 13th, cursed and transformed child of the Leeds family from Atlantic County, born in the 1700s. With no hard evidence of this monster to speak of, many explain the legend as a 'boogeyman' of early settlers and a means of intensifying the frightening reputation that the Pine Barrens once held in order to keep outsiders away from the socially isolated area.

DAY 18 and DAY 22 from my original list have been switched, mainly to give myself a little break as this post, much like the Mothman, was a mostly already completed drawing from last year.

DAY 17 : 🐐 CHUPACABRA 🐐
-
TEXAS, NEW MEXICO, ARIZONA (not exclusive to North America)
-
The first reported attack of the Chupacabra occured in Puerto Rico in 1995. This was followed by many more sightings as far north as Maine, all the way down to Chile (and even as far as the Phillipines and Russia). Literally translating to "goat-sucker", the calling card of the Chupacabra is the relatively in-tact bodies of livestock that have been bled dry, with the only marks on the remains being three small, circular puncture wounds. These mysterious deaths have often been blamed on the work of Satanic cults and sightings of the beast, in North America, have been explained as dogs or coyotes suffering from mange.

DAY 10 : OZARK HOWLER
-
OZARK MOUNTAINS, ARKANSAS, MISSOURI, OKLAHOMA, TEXAS
-
A shaggy, bear-sized creature said to roam the Ozark Mountains with a call similar to a wolf's howl crossed with an elk's bugle. Many say that this creature is an unidentified big cat and that rumors of the 'Howler' are simply a hoax perpetuated by a university student attempting to fool the cryptozoological community (however, sightings of the beast predate this incident).

DAY 5 : 🐢 BEAST OF BUSCO 🐢
-
CHURUBUSCO, INDIANA
-
The first recorded spotting of this giant snapping turtle was in 1898, but the beast was left alone until 1948 when two locals, while fishing in Fulk Lake, claimed to have seen the 500 pound creature. The then owner of the land, a farmer name Gale Harris, backed these claims stating he too has seen the beast. Word of these sightings spread and the small Indiana town became nationally famous. Although many people invaded Harris' land in the hopes of catching a glimpse of "Oscar" (the turtle was eventually named after the man who first saw it), they were left disappointed and any attempts to capture the creature were unsuccessful.

Already a day behind! I'm still trying to get back into a regular routine of productivity, so it will take a few more days for me to totally catch up and get a wee bit ahead of schedule. Thanks for your support and patience!

DAY 2 : 🍄 HONEY ISLAND SWAMP MONSTER 🍄
-
HONEY ISLAND, LOUISIANA
-
First seen in 1963 by Harlan Ford who had allegedly caught the beast on Super 8 film and claimed to have found unusual footprints and the mutilated body of a wild boar in the area. Local folklore states that the creature came to be after an early 20th century train accident where a group of chimpanzees (part of a travelling circus) escaped the wreckage and interbred with alligators native to the swamp.
