00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:27,520
Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Cryptid Cocktail Party.

2
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:33,920
I am your host Dave and today I am joined by good friend and co-host of the Cool Parents

3
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:35,200
podcast Curtis Charles.

4
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,480
What's going on man?

5
00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:38,480
Not much.

6
00:00:38,480 --> 00:00:39,480
How are you doing?

7
00:00:39,480 --> 00:00:40,480
I can't complain.

8
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:41,480
This beer is disgusting.

9
00:00:41,480 --> 00:00:42,480
I don't know if I could drink it.

10
00:00:42,480 --> 00:00:43,480
Well don't.

11
00:00:43,480 --> 00:00:46,680
That's the good thing about this great country.

12
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:47,680
You don't have to.

13
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,000
Well no I know but the premise of the show is that you know we have a few drinks, have

14
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,160
a few laughs and like talk about spooky shit so I mean I have to have something and this

15
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,600
is what's left in my fridge so it'll have to do.

16
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:04,480
It is 2.42 in the afternoon so I'm not and I drank last night so I'm just got a big glass

17
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:05,480
of water.

18
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:06,480
Does that count?

19
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:07,480
That counts yeah.

20
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,480
I mean it's really big like that counts for something.

21
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,640
It's 2.30 but also I'm in Philly and it's Super Bowl Sunday so.

22
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:16,680
Oh right I forgot about that.

23
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,800
I'm gonna use that as an excuse to start day drinking right now.

24
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:21,800
That's fine yeah.

25
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,800
Whatever you gotta do.

26
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:29,160
So Cool Parents podcast is a podcast that you co-host with our good friend Justin.

27
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:35,240
Now you guys talk about like ghosts and Bigfoot a lot but are you like a cryptids guy?

28
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:36,240
Like normal?

29
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:37,240
Oh fuck yeah.

30
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:38,240
Hell yeah.

31
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:46,400
Yeah we do talk about cryptids like we do focus on the Squatch of course and ghost demons

32
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,040
and that kind of thing.

33
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:55,800
But yeah we occasionally talk about like we did the Flatwoods Monster a while ago.

34
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,040
We did an episode about that.

35
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:04,320
We did we've done various incarnations of the Squatch and Yeti and you know the Momo,

36
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:05,320
the Yowie and so forth.

37
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,320
We're actually gonna talk about one of those today.

38
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,560
It's not the main cryptid but there is another Squatch.

39
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,560
I only put it in here because the name I thought you would really love.

40
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:20,880
Oh is it oh I think which one that we've talked about I'm guessing that it's the one that

41
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:21,880
cries.

42
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:22,880
The Squonk?

43
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:23,880
The Squonk.

44
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:24,880
Is it the Squonk?

45
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:25,880
No it's not the Squonk.

46
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:26,880
Okay we talked about the Squonk and I love the Squonk.

47
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:27,880
The Squonk is one of my favorites.

48
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:33,540
There's actually a Squonk Fest in August I think in Pennsylvania that I'm desperately

49
00:02:33,540 --> 00:02:35,160
trying to get to.

50
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,160
Do it.

51
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:37,160
Just go.

52
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,360
I want to be a sponsor dude.

53
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,560
Just do it for free first and then.

54
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:43,560
Next year?

55
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:49,160
Yeah then they'll feel bad and they'll say do you need a place to sleep and you say yeah.

56
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,200
I'll go full Squonk on them just start crying.

57
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,160
Yeah exactly that's what I'm saying.

58
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:54,160
Yeah.

59
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,440
Alright well today we got an episode for you.

60
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,720
I already told you what it is but for our listeners today's episode is about the Enfield

61
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:01,800
Monster.

62
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:02,800
Are you familiar?

63
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:03,800
Yes.

64
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,000
I mean in a general way.

65
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:12,600
I don't know much aside from the fact that it's like is it in the Midwest or something?

66
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:14,720
Yeah it's in Illinois.

67
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:19,800
Illinois yeah so and then like for a long time I kind of conflated it with the Enfield

68
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:26,920
Poltergeist which is in that's the Enfield in England and so I was like wait is this

69
00:03:26,920 --> 00:03:28,960
the thing from the Conjuring 2?

70
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,160
But it's not.

71
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:36,600
It's not at all and then yeah all I really know is that it's a hairy beast.

72
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,160
A short beast.

73
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:40,160
It is short.

74
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:48,600
It's short and you know not a lot of evidence for it but.

75
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:49,600
No.

76
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:50,840
No there's not.

77
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,600
But that's pretty much it.

78
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:53,600
That's all I got.

79
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:59,200
It made research really hard for this episode because like only like three people saw it.

80
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:00,200
Right.

81
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:05,520
But also because the Enfield Poltergeist like trying to find like I'll see the Enfield Horror

82
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,880
and I'll go to the website and it's just about like spooky ghosts.

83
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:13,440
Yeah exactly it's they need to be better with their naming conventions and just give it

84
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,080
a name similar to Squawk if you want it to stand out.

85
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,080
Exactly.

86
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,600
You know it's a it's a crowded field the cryptid industry.

87
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,040
It really is.

88
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,920
That's why they have so many different names for Bigfoot when it's literally all just Bigfoot.

89
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:27,920
Right.

90
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,720
And really their feet their feet are proportional to their body I think right because they're

91
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:32,720
like 10 feet tall.

92
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:33,720
Yeah.

93
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:34,720
So their foot ought to be big.

94
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,280
It ought to be.

95
00:04:36,280 --> 00:04:39,200
I feel like that's just they're being really insensitive to him.

96
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:40,200
Yeah.

97
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:41,200
Oh my god I'm sorry.

98
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:42,200
All right.

99
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:43,200
Yeah.

100
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:44,200
Okay.

101
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:45,200
All right.

102
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:46,200
You ready to get in on this?

103
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:47,200
Hell yeah.

104
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,200
All right.

105
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:49,200
So the Enfield to me I'm going to.

106
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:50,200
All right.

107
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:51,200
Yeah.

108
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,760
The Enfield monster or the Enfield Horror as some call it is a North American cryptid

109
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:58,800
spotted in the southern area of Illinois in the town of Enfield.

110
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,440
Now did you just pronounce the S in Illinois.

111
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:01,800
I'm sorry to interrupt.

112
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,200
I did.

113
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,040
Is that a thing that people do?

114
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,680
Southern Illinois.

115
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:07,680
Is that a Philadelphia thing?

116
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:08,680
I don't know.

117
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:09,680
I don't know.

118
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:10,680
I don't know why I did it.

119
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:11,680
Let's go.

120
00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:12,680
It's okay.

121
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,000
No I say I say stick with it.

122
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Go with your heart.

123
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,000
Yeah.

124
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,000
So you're high.

125
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,200
Before we get into the sightings and descriptions of the monster I think it's important to talk

126
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,120
about the area in which it was cited.

127
00:05:24,120 --> 00:05:30,240
So southern Illinois has a really long history of high strangeness cryptid sightings and it's

128
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:34,480
been going on for so long now that even the Native Americans and early settlers of the

129
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:40,880
area designated the area as the Devil's Kitchen which isn't that I think isn't that that's

130
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:41,880
how the hell's kitchen is.

131
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:42,880
Yeah.

132
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:43,880
That's where Daredevil is from.

133
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:44,880
Yeah.

134
00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,360
That's a real place too and it's also a reality show about cooking.

135
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,200
So yeah.

136
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:59,680
So reports of UFOs, phantom black cats, thunderbirds and abominable swamp slobs with the most famous

137
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:07,440
being the most famous being the Murphysboro mud monster which was seen in the summer of

138
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:15,120
1973 by a four year old boy.

139
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,120
I love that.

140
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,120
Abominable swamp slobs.

141
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:18,120
Yeah.

142
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:19,120
It's good.

143
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:20,120
Everything about that.

144
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,120
I mean that's the best part.

145
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:26,660
Abominable swamp slobs is a tongue twister for the ages but also just giving credence

146
00:06:26,660 --> 00:06:29,520
to a four year old's account is fucking hilarious.

147
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,960
He was the only one who saw it.

148
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:32,960
Right.

149
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,760
Which means he fucking drew it on a napkin or something and when he was at Friendly's

150
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,600
and was just like hey Bob look at this.

151
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:40,600
I just made him up.

152
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:42,360
He's called the what was he called?

153
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,120
The Murphysboro mud monster.

154
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,880
He's the Murphysboro mud monster and then mom's like that's not real and he's like yes

155
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:48,880
it is.

156
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:55,160
I'm going to the police and then he made his statement official.

157
00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:01,400
So yes so the four year old boy saw that in 1973 which coincidentally this is the same

158
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:05,360
time frame that the Enfield monster was also spotted.

159
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,920
According to AstonishingLegends.org the first recorded sighting of the monster occurred

160
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:16,320
on the evening of April 25th in 1973 by a young boy named Greg Garrett who was playing

161
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,600
in his backyard when he was approached by the creature.

162
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:27,180
So he described it as being tripedal with sharp claws on each foot, gray skin that seemed

163
00:07:27,180 --> 00:07:31,120
almost slimy and having massive red eyes.

164
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:32,120
Greg straight up.

165
00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:33,120
Wait it's not hairy?

166
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,120
No it's not hairy.

167
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:35,120
I thought it was hairy.

168
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,120
Wow wow see I was fed a bunch of eyes.

169
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:42,560
Yeah well some depictions also show it having horns but I don't know if it does or not.

170
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:43,560
Right.

171
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:44,560
I've never seen it.

172
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:45,560
Hard to tell.

173
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:46,560
Yeah.

174
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:50,760
So Greg frozen with fear stood there as the creature clawed at his feet which tore his

175
00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:52,720
sneakers to shred.

176
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:57,680
Unfortunately Greg would not survive his encounter with the Enfield monster and he became the

177
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:58,680
first victim.

178
00:07:58,680 --> 00:07:59,680
What?

179
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:00,680
No.

180
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:01,680
No he didn't die.

181
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:02,680
No.

182
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:03,680
No.

183
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:04,680
Just his shoes?

184
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:05,680
Just his shoes?

185
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:06,680
Yeah no he just he just.

186
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:07,680
I figured this out.

187
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:08,680
I debunked it.

188
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:09,680
I debunked it already.

189
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:10,800
Can I tell you my quick theory?

190
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:11,800
Really quick.

191
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:12,800
Really quick.

192
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:13,800
Yeah go for it.

193
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:19,600
He just he fucked up his new shoes they just got from his mom or his dad for Christmas

194
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:24,720
or whatever and he didn't want to admit that he went where he wasn't supposed to go and

195
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,640
fucked up his shoes in when he was playing in the old scrap yard or something.

196
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:29,640
That's yeah.

197
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:30,640
And that's it.

198
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,840
He's just like a monster did it mom.

199
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:34,840
I really hope that.

200
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:35,840
I swear.

201
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,280
I feel like that's a lot of cryptid encounters could also be that.

202
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:40,280
Yeah.

203
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:41,280
Just trying to blame it.

204
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:42,280
It's all excuses.

205
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:43,280
Like no no no I swear to god.

206
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,040
I didn't kill that guy.

207
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,320
There was a Sasquatch ripped his arms off.

208
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:50,320
I saw it.

209
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,320
There was a debaubable swamp slob.

210
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:53,320
Yeah.

211
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,280
And he fucking just came out of nowhere.

212
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,280
Right.

213
00:08:56,280 --> 00:09:00,320
All right so the the next sighting would happen later that night at around 9 p.m. when Henry

214
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:05,120
McDaniel and his family would also encounter the Enfield monster.

215
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:10,160
McDaniel was at home just being a father and husband in the 70s so I'm gonna assume.

216
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,160
Smoke his cigarettes.

217
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,480
He's sitting in his chair drinking a Schlitz muttering something about how he works too

218
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,160
hard for this shit when he heard a scratching at the front door.

219
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:24,560
Now when he opened it he was met by the same creature that Craig had reported.

220
00:09:24,560 --> 00:09:28,400
Henry described it as about five feet tall with a flat body.

221
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,320
I don't know what that means.

222
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,320
What.

223
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:36,640
Greyish in color with a strange disappearing head at least 12 inches across.

224
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:41,120
It had three legs and two pink eyes the size of flashlight lenses.

225
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:42,120
Now that's a direct quote.

226
00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:43,200
This is in the newspaper.

227
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,480
I don't know what any of that fucking means.

228
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:46,480
What.

229
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:47,480
OK.

230
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:52,560
First of all the the flashlight lenses thing.

231
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:53,560
Yeah.

232
00:09:53,560 --> 00:09:54,560
The other kid said that too right.

233
00:09:54,560 --> 00:09:55,560
He said he had one who's.

234
00:09:55,560 --> 00:09:58,320
Well no they just he had two big red eyes.

235
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,000
Oh just big big red eyes.

236
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,800
OK he didn't say flashlight eyes.

237
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:02,800
No.

238
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:03,800
OK.

239
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,480
He also didn't describe it as flat or having a disappearing head that's 12 inches across.

240
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,440
12 inches across flat head.

241
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,640
So this is a it's like a pop up book.

242
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:18,440
In my head I just picture Danny DeVito from that one episode of It's Always Sunny where

243
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,280
he's wearing like the wrestling unitard.

244
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:21,280
Yes.

245
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,000
Like the trash man or whatever.

246
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,440
That's the trash man.

247
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:30,000
That's the image I have in my head when he describes it as a flat body with no no that

248
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,000
that works.

249
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,880
I mean technically not flat.

250
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:35,880
But.

251
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,920
But his head doesn't go that far above his shoulder so he's kind of.

252
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:45,200
It's not 12 inches wide either though the head and it also doesn't disappear.

253
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,080
Danny DeVito is not the Anfield monster.

254
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,080
We got to make that clear.

255
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,640
But can we prove that though.

256
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,800
What was Danny DeVito doing in 1973.

257
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,680
That's a good point.

258
00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:58,360
It really makes you think that really makes you think.

259
00:10:58,360 --> 00:10:59,360
Yeah.

260
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:06,280
So upon upon being greeted by this hideous beast Henry's immediate reaction was to fire

261
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,280
a pistol at it.

262
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:08,280
Yeah.

263
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:09,280
Cause it to hiss and fuck right off.

264
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:10,280
Of course.

265
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,720
So that just means that he answers the door with a gun.

266
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:14,720
All the time.

267
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:15,720
Right.

268
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:16,720
Right.

269
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:17,720
It doesn't matter.

270
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:18,720
Yeah.

271
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:19,720
It's time of day.

272
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:24,680
What he's doing he could interrupt dinner and he's he's cocking his gun and he's what

273
00:11:24,680 --> 00:11:25,680
do you want.

274
00:11:25,680 --> 00:11:26,680
Get off my lawn.

275
00:11:26,680 --> 00:11:27,680
Who are you.

276
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:30,000
You know the old man like grizzled thing to do.

277
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:31,000
Yeah.

278
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,400
But this was in the 70s right.

279
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,680
So like old people were like 30 at that point you know.

280
00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:40,760
So that's like you know he was he could have been my age had a whole bucket of kids.

281
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:41,760
I was going to shotgun.

282
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,600
Oh wait no it wasn't shotgun.

283
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:44,600
It was a pistol.

284
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:45,600
Either way.

285
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:46,600
Okay.

286
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,760
But news of the sighting broke and by April 27 stories of the monster was being reported

287
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:51,760
all over Illinois.

288
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,760
I said Illinois again.

289
00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,360
Well all the there's West Illinois.

290
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:57,360
Yeah.

291
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,240
So both of those.

292
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:05,160
Now one newspaper the shame the champagne Urbana News Gazette noted that Henry was a

293
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:06,800
rational and sober person.

294
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,960
So they took his took his sighting.

295
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,080
And they have they have alcohol in their title.

296
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,080
Yeah.

297
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,000
And you know he was hammering back some schlitz dude.

298
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:20,440
Oh for sure.

299
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:21,440
Yeah.

300
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:22,440
But yeah definitely.

301
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:27,080
On May 6th just a couple of weeks after Henry's first encounter with the Enfield monster he

302
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:32,000
was awoken by his neighbor's dogs causing all sorts of a ruckus and then curious as

303
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:36,080
to what was causing the dogs to be so I wrote boisterous because I wanted to sound smart

304
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,280
but I really don't know what that word means if it even fits.

305
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:40,280
That works.

306
00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:41,280
Boisterous yeah.

307
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:42,280
Yeah yeah just like loud.

308
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,960
I'm so fucking good at podcasting it's not even funny.

309
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:45,960
Yeah.

310
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:46,960
Yeah.

311
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,800
But Henry got out of bed opened his front door to see the creature again down by the

312
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,600
railroad tracks which are just outside of his house.

313
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:57,360
Henry was quoted as saying quote I didn't shoot at it this time or anything.

314
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,120
It started down the railroad track.

315
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:00,880
It wasn't in a hurry or anything.

316
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,960
So it's just kind of sauntering along the railroad tracks and he had to specify they

317
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:05,720
didn't shoot at it this time.

318
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,560
I did not shoot at it this time so I followed it calmly.

319
00:13:08,560 --> 00:13:10,520
I wanted to see where it was going.

320
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,240
So that means he opens the door with a gun but doesn't sleep with a gun.

321
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:15,240
Right.

322
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:16,240
Which is good.

323
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,240
Yeah no.

324
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,240
Yeah I mean.

325
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:19,240
I feel like she'd be there the other night.

326
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,640
Not much of a not much of an Illinois man if you ask me.

327
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,080
For not sleeping with a gun.

328
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:28,000
Yeah you got to open carry into the bed you know.

329
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,040
That's the only place.

330
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:31,040
All the time.

331
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:32,040
Yeah no.

332
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:33,920
All the time because what's going to stop a bad guy with a gun right.

333
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,640
It's the guy who sleeps with his gun.

334
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:38,280
A good one.

335
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:43,320
Now after all the reports going out about the creature Enfield was soon swamped with

336
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:47,560
reporters monster hunters researchers and looky loos.

337
00:13:47,560 --> 00:13:48,680
I don't know why I wrote looky loos.

338
00:13:48,680 --> 00:13:51,960
I think I read that somewhere and I thought it was really fun.

339
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,680
They're a real pest.

340
00:13:53,680 --> 00:13:54,680
Looky loos.

341
00:13:54,680 --> 00:13:59,320
Now some of them were causing such such a stir that deputy sheriff Jim Clark arrested

342
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:05,200
five men for hunting violations as well as being quote threats to public safety after

343
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:09,520
they were open firing into some underbrush where they claimed to have seen something

344
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:13,080
gray and hairy that ran off quote faster than a man could.

345
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,080
So anything else.

346
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:16,120
Anything.

347
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:17,120
The neighbor's cat.

348
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,160
There are just five shooting into a bush.

349
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:21,840
A squirrel.

350
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:22,880
Look at a squirrel.

351
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:23,880
I love it.

352
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:24,880
Fuck this bush.

353
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,960
I just love that day.

354
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,440
Threats to public safety.

355
00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:30,440
Yeah.

356
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,000
I agree with that part.

357
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,000
Yeah.

358
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,000
Definitely.

359
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,000
Definitely.

360
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:36,000
God damn.

361
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,840
Now out of all the commotion caused by all these nerds descending onto the town one

362
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,720
actually credible report came from it.

363
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:50,960
A news director from Kokomo Indiana with this name sounds so fake Rick Rainbow and three

364
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:57,800
great good old Dick Rainbow Ricky Rainbow is a traveling clown.

365
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,480
That can't be a real name right.

366
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:01,080
That's got to be a clown name.

367
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:02,080
It has to be.

368
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:07,080
But apparently he was a news director from Kokomo Indiana which is the Kokomo to it in

369
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,040
the Beach Boys sing about that song.

370
00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,840
Is that the sad can't be the same Kokomo.

371
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:12,840
I don't think so.

372
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,400
I'd really like that song.

373
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:16,400
There would be.

374
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:17,400
Yeah.

375
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:21,080
I think you'd a Kokomo Indiana.

376
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:22,080
Yeah.

377
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:23,080
Yeah.

378
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,080
That's where everybody wants to go.

379
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:25,080
Yeah.

380
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:26,080
Way down the Kokomo.

381
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:27,080
But way down.

382
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:33,600
But Dick Rainbow and three other people claim to have seen the monster at an old abandoned

383
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:34,600
Dick Rainbow.

384
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,720
It also sounds like it could be like an old sheriff or something.

385
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:39,720
You know.

386
00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:40,720
Yeah.

387
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:41,720
Sheriff Rainbow was in town.

388
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,480
He ain't gonna take none of your shit.

389
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,000
Rick Rainbow at your service.

390
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,000
You know.

391
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:54,280
You think you could come into Rick Rainbow's town and show your ass.

392
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:58,760
I just feel like Rick Rainbow is such an improbable name.

393
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,640
Like I've never heard of a person with the rainbow as a name.

394
00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,120
No that's why I don't know.

395
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:05,120
I don't know.

396
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:14,240
The first the first I mean honestly I just think of Gary Glitter which I'd rather not.

397
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:15,240
That's unfortunate.

398
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:19,160
It's like on the same level like the name just the name that's you know.

399
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:20,520
Well wait what was it.

400
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:26,440
It reminds me of what was Robin Williams character from death to death to smoochie.

401
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,640
Oh my god I don't remember.

402
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,240
But wasn't it something rainbow.

403
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:32,240
It might have been.

404
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:33,240
I think it was.

405
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,240
I can check.

406
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:35,240
Yeah we'll look it up.

407
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:36,240
You look it up.

408
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:37,240
I'll look it up.

409
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:38,240
Sorry.

410
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,240
Yeah.

411
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:40,720
But they claim to have seen the monster at an old abandoned house which is right near

412
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,600
McDaniel's place.

413
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:46,880
The group didn't get the best look at it since it was running away but Dick Rainbow claimed

414
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:53,320
to have gotten a recording of its cry and I could not for the life of me find a recording

415
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:54,320
at all.

416
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:55,320
What really?

417
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:56,880
No I don't think it actually exists.

418
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,600
You think you would if you would have that you would have aired it.

419
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,840
He was the news director for a station.

420
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:06,880
Yeah even in the 70s I think that they would have a record of it.

421
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:07,880
I would think.

422
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:13,200
You put that canister real you know you bury it or something so that it doesn't get lost.

423
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,200
It's important information.

424
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,120
It's like a time capsule.

425
00:17:16,120 --> 00:17:19,600
Yeah Robin Williams played Rainbow Randolph.

426
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,800
That was close.

427
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,120
Yeah that's halfway there.

428
00:17:24,120 --> 00:17:25,920
Rainbow Randy.

429
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:26,920
Rainbow Randy yeah.

430
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:27,920
Rick Rainbow.

431
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,400
Rick Rainbow yeah.

432
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:30,560
Oh wow.

433
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:38,280
So we've got Robin Williams hunting for Danny DeVito.

434
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,120
That pretty much sums it up.

435
00:17:41,120 --> 00:17:42,120
That's the whole story.

436
00:17:42,120 --> 00:17:43,120
With a gun?

437
00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:44,120
With a gun.

438
00:17:44,120 --> 00:17:45,120
With a gun.

439
00:17:45,120 --> 00:17:46,120
Yeah.

440
00:17:46,120 --> 00:17:47,120
Okay.

441
00:17:47,120 --> 00:17:51,240
Now not long after Rick Rainbow and his encounter the sightings of the Enfield monster pretty

442
00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:55,400
much ended abruptly with no explanation ever given as to what exactly people were seeing

443
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,080
around the town.

444
00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,400
Some people think that it was connected to sightings of UFOs that were happening around

445
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:01,840
the town.

446
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:06,880
Others just chalked it up to the area seeing as how it's been known to have stuff like

447
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:08,800
this happen a lot.

448
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,720
Either way the beast hasn't been seen since and still 50 years later people are still

449
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:17,080
talking about it hoping that one day they will get an answer as to what happened all

450
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:18,080
those years ago.

451
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:22,160
Now the best part of this story is that remember Greg the boy whose shoes got all fucked up?

452
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,160
How could I forget Greg?

453
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,920
I'll remember Greg forever.

454
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:31,280
He later told researchers at Western Illinois University that his report was a hoax and

455
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:38,480
he just made it up to tease McDaniel and have fun with any out of town newsmen.

456
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:44,880
He just wanted to fuck with this old man.

457
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:45,880
Wow.

458
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,880
And people still latch on to that story.

459
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:56,640
So the Greg story was actually in several articles that I read about the Anfield Monster

460
00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:05,480
as a credible story until I stumbled upon, I forget what it was, but it was like a news

461
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:12,080
thing and it came out that he lied just to make fun of the old man.

462
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:13,920
So not a lot of people know about this.

463
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:14,920
No, no.

464
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,360
So you're blowing the lid off of this thing.

465
00:19:17,360 --> 00:19:19,040
Yeah.

466
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:20,800
It's going viral.

467
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,560
I am fucking Snowden.

468
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:23,560
Not Snowden.

469
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:24,560
Yeah Snowden?

470
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:25,560
Sure.

471
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:26,560
Yeah.

472
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:27,560
The WikiLeaks guy?

473
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:28,560
Who's the WikiLeaks guy?

474
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:29,560
Julian Assange.

475
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:30,560
Julian Assange.

476
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:31,560
Yeah.

477
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:32,560
But no, that's the story of the Anfield Monster.

478
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:33,560
That's really all it is.

479
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:34,800
There's nothing going on here.

480
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:35,960
I love it.

481
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,000
But I have some questions.

482
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,560
Ask me.

483
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,760
Why?

484
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:47,800
Just from a biological standpoint, why has this fucker got three legs?

485
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:49,160
Nothing has three legs.

486
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:50,160
Nothing.

487
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,600
It would seem really inconvenient, right?

488
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,080
It doesn't, right.

489
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,040
It's not going to help with anything.

490
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:57,040
It's just going to get in the way.

491
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:58,040
No, because if you-

492
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,600
Are they sure it wasn't just a giant, you know, a giant dong?

493
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:02,600
That's what I was thinking.

494
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:03,600
Yeah.

495
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:04,600
Just a massive hog.

496
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:05,600
Yeah.

497
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:06,600
Just had a huge cork on him.

498
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:07,600
That had to be it.

499
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,600
Yeah.

500
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:09,600
That had to be it.

501
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:10,600
I don't know.

502
00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:11,600
Because nothing has a third leg.

503
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:15,720
It's just a little, and there's two legs or four legs, or like a million legs if you're

504
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:16,720
a bug.

505
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:17,720
That's it.

506
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:18,720
Maybe it was just like a fucked up dog.

507
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:20,480
No, because that had two arms.

508
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,680
Or Danny DeVito.

509
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:23,680
Or it was Danny DeVito.

510
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:24,680
Because he does wear-

511
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:25,680
Wait, wait.

512
00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:27,400
Danny DeVito wears magnums for his massive hog.

513
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:28,400
Right.

514
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:29,400
Of course.

515
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:30,400
We know that.

516
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:31,400
That's the third leg.

517
00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:32,800
So that's already, that's not up for debate.

518
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:38,040
But the head disappearing, that was, who was it that said that was-

519
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:39,040
I don't know.

520
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,040
That was McDaniel.

521
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:41,040
That was a different guy.

522
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:42,040
That was the one who answered the door with a gun.

523
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,040
Right.

524
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,040
But I don't know what he means by disappearing head.

525
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,240
I don't know if he means like it retracts like a turtle, or if it like-

526
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:49,600
That's what I was thinking.

527
00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,080
Like those Power Rangers toys.

528
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,040
You remember those ones that the head just retracts into the chest?

529
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,800
Yeah, then you squeeze the legs and fucking pops right back up.

530
00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,040
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

531
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:00,040
It's like that.

532
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:01,040
Kinda, I guess.

533
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:02,040
I just don't know what-

534
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:03,040
Yeah, no, it is.

535
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:04,040
I don't know.

536
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:09,880
There's like, every rendition, every like picture I've seen of it is obviously like

537
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,840
an artist's rendition of it.

538
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,440
And they're all wildly different.

539
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:14,440
They take some liberties.

540
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,920
Yeah, they tend to do that.

541
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:20,600
When all you've got for description is like the head disappears-

542
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:21,720
Dick Rainbow and fucking-

543
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:22,720
Huge dick.

544
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,360
Oh, and Dick Rainbow.

545
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:27,960
You got, what else?

546
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:32,160
Big eyes, like flashlights.

547
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,160
How tall?

548
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:34,160
Three, four feet?

549
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,160
He's a four to five.

550
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:36,160
He's a four to five.

551
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,160
Four, five feet?

552
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:38,160
But that seems big.

553
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:39,160
I can't imagine it was-

554
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:40,160
Oh, you think?

555
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:41,160
It seems big, right?

556
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:42,160
Well, it depends on what it is.

557
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:43,160
You said it was five feet tall.

558
00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:44,160
It's small for a human being.

559
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:45,160
Yeah, but I'm five, five.

560
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,160
Right.

561
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,160
So that means it was as tall as me.

562
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:48,160
So the Enfield Monster is a short king.

563
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:49,160
Basically.

564
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,160
But what I want to know is, sorry, so it has three legs and two arms, kind of like a fucked

565
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,160
up satyr type looking thing, I guess.

566
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:52,160
Okay, yeah.

567
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:53,160
But what I don't understand is like is it five feet, like, is it like, is it like, is

568
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:54,160
it like, is it like, is it like, is it like, is it like, is it like, is it like, is it

569
00:21:54,160 --> 00:22:09,360
like,

570
00:22:09,360 --> 00:22:10,400
All right, what's his posture?

571
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:18,140
Yeah, like I feel like he'd have to be like hunched over if you have three legs, right?

572
00:22:18,140 --> 00:22:20,080
You can't just be fuckin-"

573
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,800
Well this dude didn't even say where the third leg was.

574
00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:25,700
Every picture I've seen is fucking right in the middle.

575
00:22:25,700 --> 00:22:27,600
Just a tripod thing.

576
00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,040
Then how do you run like that?

577
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,500
And it runs really fast, apparently.

578
00:22:31,500 --> 00:22:33,040
Oh, faster than any human.

579
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,680
So you think maybe it's supernatural in nature?

580
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:36,880
See, I don't know.

581
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,840
To me, this type of sighting, for some reason,

582
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,520
it reminds me a lot of the Dover Demon,

583
00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,040
which was just like a random encounter seen

584
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:46,280
by just people going about their daily lives

585
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,720
and then never seen again.

586
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:50,760
So to me, it's kind of like that.

587
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,360
It could be extraterrestrial nature.

588
00:22:54,360 --> 00:22:55,280
Interdimensional.

589
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:56,560
Interdimensional.

590
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:56,860
Maybe.

591
00:22:56,860 --> 00:22:57,960
Could be a flap there.

592
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:58,800
I don't know if you're familiar with flaps.

593
00:22:58,800 --> 00:22:59,800
Maybe that's where the head was.

594
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:01,280
Yeah, that's where the head was.

595
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,280
It disappears because he's poking it in and out of the veil.

596
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:05,560
Yeah, maybe he's a tolpa.

597
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:06,880
Interdimensional glory hole.

598
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,760
Could be a tolpa.

599
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:09,440
A tolpa?

600
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:10,640
A tolpa?

601
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:11,200
What?

602
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:12,680
You don't know what a tolpa is?

603
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:13,360
I don't think so.

604
00:23:13,360 --> 00:23:17,880
So a tolpa is like basically, a lot of people

605
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:19,520
think like a lot of high strangenesses.

606
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,240
If enough people are like, you kind of will it

607
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:23,840
into existence, kind of.

608
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:24,800
Does that make sense?

609
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:25,600
Oh, like mass hysteria.

610
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:30,360
Yeah, kind of like a, it's a good way to put it.

611
00:23:30,360 --> 00:23:32,640
Like Freddy Krueger at the end of one of the Freddy Krueger

612
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,920
movies, he comes into the real world because you kind of like.

613
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:37,760
Oh, OK.

614
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:39,680
So like actually willed into existence.

615
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:40,760
Yeah, basically.

616
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:41,400
OK.

617
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:42,120
All right, I see.

618
00:23:42,120 --> 00:23:42,760
I see.

619
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:44,360
But that doesn't make any sense because I'd

620
00:23:44,360 --> 00:23:46,480
highly doubt that fucking Henry McDaniel was just

621
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,800
like building a nightmare creature into existence.

622
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,400
Maybe he really wanted that thing.

623
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,240
He really wanted to kill something.

624
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,800
And he's like, what's great to shoot at?

625
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,440
What's a universally hated sort of thing?

626
00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:04,240
It's this slimy, three legged fucker with a head

627
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,040
that disappears.

628
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,960
Everybody sees that and they want it dead immediately.

629
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:10,600
I'm going to be a hero.

630
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:11,720
I'm going to be a hero.

631
00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:15,880
Also, but his description also kind of reminds me of.

632
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:21,760
What were the fucking demon dog things from Ghostbusters?

633
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:22,400
Oh, yeah.

634
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,640
It kind of reminds me of that.

635
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:25,880
Only with three legs and two hands.

636
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:26,760
Three legs, yeah.

637
00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:27,400
Yeah.

638
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:27,760
Massive.

639
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,760
But maybe this one was just maybe it was a defect.

640
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,200
Maybe it was a birth defect.

641
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:39,280
Maybe the other creatures in its family have four legs.

642
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,000
Oh, and he was like the runt of the litter

643
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,120
so they had to fucking throw him away.

644
00:24:42,120 --> 00:24:49,760
Yeah, he's born a little bit less than good.

645
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,720
So they tossed him aside.

646
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:52,880
That could be.

647
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:53,480
He's pissed.

648
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:54,320
He's out for revenge.

649
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,320
That's why he's terrorizing these people.

650
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:57,800
But he didn't make it far after that.

651
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,920
He unfortunately had a bum ticker.

652
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:02,040
He collapsed.

653
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,680
They don't ever say what happened to him.

654
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,320
I mean, again, there was no.

655
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,600
No corpse, no scat, no footprint.

656
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:13,200
But no one even attempted to come up with an explanation.

657
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,680
At least with the Dover Demon, they

658
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,880
thought it was a baby moose.

659
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,800
And you know what I mean?

660
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,560
There was nothing to even kind of like.

661
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,400
Like the chupacabra is a.

662
00:25:23,400 --> 00:25:24,280
It's just a dog with mange.

663
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,640
With mange, yeah.

664
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:27,360
I believe that.

665
00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:28,760
I don't believe the chupacabra is real.

666
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:29,360
Totally.

667
00:25:29,360 --> 00:25:29,880
Totally.

668
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:30,400
Yeah.

669
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,640
I don't think it's sucking any goat, that's for sure.

670
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,520
I believe in a lot of weird shit.

671
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,160
I think somebody's sucking goat.

672
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,880
Somebody's sucking on goats down there.

673
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:38,880
But.

674
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,760
It's not the coyote or the dog, the dog with the mange.

675
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:42,560
It's definitely not.

676
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:43,280
He can't suck.

677
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:47,400
He doesn't have enough lips because of the mange.

678
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:48,920
It's all rotted away.

679
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,200
Fair enough.

680
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:50,840
All right, Curtis.

681
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:52,800
Well, that's the end of the episode.

682
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:53,400
We did it.

683
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:54,120
Wow.

684
00:25:54,120 --> 00:25:55,560
Wow.

685
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:56,600
That flew by.

686
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:57,160
Yeah.

687
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:58,400
Half hour episodes, baby.

688
00:25:58,400 --> 00:25:59,280
That's what I'm trying to do.

689
00:25:59,280 --> 00:25:59,760
Tight.

690
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:00,640
Nice and tight.

691
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:01,200
You like that shit?

692
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:02,040
You did a great job.

693
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:02,560
Oh, yeah.

694
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:03,400
Great show.

695
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:04,760
I'm thrilled to be here.

696
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:05,280
Yeah.

697
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:06,880
Well, I appreciate you coming on.

698
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:11,560
Any last thoughts on the Enfield Monster before we part ways?

699
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,400
So yeah, just to recap real quick.

700
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:14,440
Recap.

And Robin Williams.

708
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:29,760
That's it.

709
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:33,840
All right, well, Curtis, you got some stuff going on.

You got your podcast.

You got a band.

712
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:39,720
You got anything you want to plug before we mosey on out of here?

713

Yeah, yeah, I'm going to plug up my podcast, Cool Parents podcast,

00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:50,080

We do like power pop, pop punk stuff.

719
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,200
You can find that also on CoolParents.co.

720
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,880
And yeah, yeah, it's been real.

721
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:14,720
Yeah.

722
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,560
And also Cool Parents, one of the best bands ever.

723
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:24,280
You guys got songs about Bigfoot, Alien, Vampire, some other stuff.

724
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:29,120
So got a new one that we've been working on about a werewolf.

725
00:27:29,120 --> 00:27:31,440
An American werewolf and fish nets.

726
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,160
It's about a prostrusting werewolf.

727
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:35,160
I love it.

728
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:36,160
Yeah.

729
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:37,160
That's just one of many.

730
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:38,720
We've got all kinds of spooky songs.

731
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:40,160
So jump on it if you want.

732
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:41,160
Yeah.

733
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,600
I'll be sure to link all that stuff in the description of the episode

734
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,400
so you guys can find it easy.

735
00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,040
Thanks, everyone, for listening.

736
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:48,160
Super appreciate it.

737
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:51,240
And with that, I'll see you or talk to you.

738
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:52,240
See you.

739
00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:53,240
Talk to you.

740
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:54,880
This is an audio medium, right?

741
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,440
Yeah, but you know, I'm not going to be able to do that.

742
00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,120
Yeah, but you know, people see shit.
