Mystery’s Over Guys. Everyone Go Home.

The Official Loch Ness Monster Sighting Register keeps a page on its website that highlights what does not make a Nessie sighting. The website uses actual accounts that have been reported to it to help decipher what shouldn’t be reported as a legitimate sighting. Some are the more common things that photographs or videos have been debunked as, such as boat wakes, seals, and floating logs. But some others include birds, divers, and even insects. The Register does explain itself on these. It says that the splashes from birds diving or taking off from the water can sometimes look like something suspicious. It explains a situation in 2015 where a woman reported a Nessie sighting but it was debunked as divers that were getting footage for Google Maps’ street view. As for the insects, the Register talks about how bugs too close to the camera lens can sometimes appear monster-ish.

Creepy horses man, they creep me out just enough to want to paint them.

Said to reside in Normandy, particularly the commune of Bayeux, is the legend of the Rongeur d’Os. This large black dog’s name can be translated to “Bone Gnawer” or “Gnawer of Bones”. The Rongeur d’Os is said to drag a long chain behind it and always have a bone in its mouth. Like many black dog legends, the Rongeur d’Os is said to be an omen of death and strikes fear into travelers that it comes across. 

Gef the Talking Mongoose said a number of notable things in his time living at the home of the Irvings on the Isle of Man. He could speak a number of different languages according to those he spoke to, including but not limited to Welsh, Spanish, and Russian. However, even though he could speak more than English, he once claimed that the Irvings were the ones that had taught him to speak: “For years, I understood all that people said, but I could not speak until you taught me”.

The story of the Black Dog of Aylesbury dates back to the 1890s. The legend tells of a milkman who would travel the same path to get to his field of cattle every day. However, one day, while walking his normal path, the milkman stopped and noted the way was being blocked by an enormous black dog with blazing red eyes. He got the sense that this was no ordinary dog and he backtracked and took the longer route to his cattle. Each day thereafter, the milkman would try to go his shortcut, only to be blocked by that black dog. The milkman felt less and less fear of the dog as the days went by; on one fateful night, when he had a companion with him and he felt braver, the milkman decided enough was enough. He charged at the dog, using the pole that carried his milk pails as a weapon. When he struck at the dog, it simply vanished into thin air.
