A cryptid that needs no introduction… The Loch Ness Monster, or as her friends call her, Nessie. I don’t think she’s a monster at all. Nessie is my FAVORITE cryptid other than Sasquatch. In 2023, when the world wasn't as scary and I was a happier person (that will change, I know, but right now... I'm honestly barely holding it together some days), we went to Scotland for our wedding anniversary and we went to the Loch Ness Center, where we did a little tour narrated by David Tenant about the legends, history, and hoaxes of The Loch Ness Monster. That was the trip of a lifetime, and it was so cool to see some of the history. Sidenote: Scotland, to me, is a faerie tale dream world and I didn’t wanted to leave. I have never been anywhere so beautiful.
Nessie is said to inhabit Loch Ness, the biggest lake in
Scotland, located in the Scottish Highlands.
She was first reported on August 22, 564. She was reportedly seen in Drumnadrochit by a
hotel manager in the 1930s, and that’s when all the fanfare happened. There are groups in Scotland dedicated to
finding her and proving she exists. She
is an animal with sleek, rubbery black skin, about 20 feet long. She may be a very old Plesiosaurus. I often wonder if there has been more than
one of her over the years.
