These are all new myths to me. I love the interesting cross that would make up a sea panther. As a fantasy reader, that just sounds cool to me. A mer-panther?

Funny story cuz the picture reminded me - so we live on Lake Michigan, have a semi private beach. I was out one morning, waiting for the sunrise and a drone flew by. Little bugger hovered over me and I made a face and flipped it off. πŸ˜€

I don't think the person operating it was expecting that. It dashed off quickly. 😁

I mention The Lake Bellaire Plaid Sock Monster in my novel Radio Red ... maybe it moved there up the Grass River from Torch Lake? (Of course, one of my characters made it up on the fly, so probably not.)

Never heard of this one, but very interesting! Seems like lots of bodies of water have at least one monster hiding in it, haha

I love Torch Lake! I grew up nearby! I have been out on the lake quite a bit, and unfortunately have never seen this creature. Michigan does have a ton of cryptids. We have tons of very deep lakes and vast forests.
