That time of year again, and rather than necrothreading the prior creepypasta thread (topically appropriate though that would be), I'll just post a link to it here: http://grogheads.com/forums/index.php?topic=15219.msg478478#msg478478
And then move along to this year's call for entries.
Let me start with a non-entry, which is not my personal experience (thus a non-entry), but which I was a little surprised to discover this morning, lurking not only on the fringes of cryptozoology but on a patch of land about an hour and a half away from where I'm typing.
I give you, the Bizarre Beast of LBL (Land Between the Lakes).

My surprise here, I should clarify, is not that North America has a fuzzy tradition of wolf-men, which I already learned several years ago; nor even that someone reported seeing such a creature with two young crossing a road late at night sometime in the past ten years at LBL, which I heard about shortly after learning the prior thing. My surprise was learning this morning that that LBL story, not included in the article linked above, was not an isolated incident.
