Creepy Cryptids and Legends Contest

*Closed*

Dead livestock mysteriously drained of blood. A tall spooky figure with red glowing eyes that appears before disaster strikes. Giant monsters lurking in the bottom of lochs and lakes. The wailing of banshees in the dead of night. Cryptozoology is the study of unidentified animals. However, most of the world knows these creepy cryptids by their urban legends. Give me your heebies and your jeebies. Let’s make some creepy cryptid urban legends.

I don't need any more contests on my mind but there are so many Scottish cryptid myths / legends that I feel like I need to enter. Sign me up!

::files:
Count me in.

@ eugene fitzherbert.
You are for sure added now.

Thanks. :D

Maybe might enter if I turn out to have writing time!

@ pocahontas.
Let me know if you do! I'd love to read it! :D

One question. I have something already started on my computer, not posted here. Its an unfinished idea, would that be okay?

@ briecheese
Yes, that would be fine! :D

sweet! Count me in!

@ briecheese
Yay! I added you.

I'd like to enter, please. So many Welsh urban legends to choose from!

@ nancy drew.
I LOVE THAT IDEA!! I added you and I can't wait to see what you come up with! :D

@ Corduroy
I wasn't going to enter buuuuuut I think I have a pretty good idea. Would Satan count?

@ PhoebeBuffay
Hmmm... That's hard to say. I guess it depends on the context? Or how it's written? But I honestly just want some good old freaky urban legend type stories. So if you think it'll fit, that's fine. ^.^

@ Corduroy
"A tall spooky figure with red eyes" is what caught my eyes. So I could really have fun with this.
