Sykesville Monster: The Hidden 7-Foot Cryptid of Maryland

In a recent video from The Bar is Open with Beth and Greg Podcast, titled "The Sykesville Monster and The Wendigo - The Castro Files 8," the hosts share some spooky stories that are sure to pique the interest of any Bigfoot enthusiast. The first story comes from Sykesville, Maryland, where sightings of a hairy humanoid have been reported since 1970. Described as a seven to eight foot tall creature with dark brown fur, the Sykesville monster has been seen by multiple witnesses, including a truck driver and a fisherman named Lon Strickler. Strickler's encounter with the monster was particularly memorable, as the creature fought back when a stray dog attacked it. Despite the numerous sightings, there are no official records of the Sykesville monster in the police department. Some believe that the monster is an escaped patient from a nearby mental hospital, while others think it may be a unknown species of primate. The second story in the video is about the Wendigo, a creature from Native American folklore that is said to inhabit the forests of the Great Lakes region. Described as a tall, gaunt creature with glowing eyes, the Wendigo is said to be insatiably hungry and will eat anything, including human flesh. The video is a fascinating look at some of the mysterious creatures that are said to inhabit our world. Whether you believe in the Sykesville monster, the Wendigo, or any other cryptid, these stories are sure to leave you feeling intrigued and a little bit spooked.
