Welcome back, Spooky Squad to another episode of Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour. Today we are doing something a little different, a tale on cryptids in the US!
Deep in the pine barrens of New Jersey lurks a creature steeped in mystery and legend: the Jersey Devil. With its bat-like wings, hooved feet, and eerie cries that echo through the trees, this cryptid has terrorized locals for centuries. But where did the legend originate? Was it truly born of a mother’s curse in the 1700s, or is it a tale steeped deep in women's reproductive rights? Join us as we untangle folklore, historical sightings, and the cultural impact of this spine-chilling figure.. We are also covering a tale a little further North, but no less creepy. Maryland’s rolling hills hide a darker secret: the Snallygaster. This part-reptile, part-bird creature with razor-sharp talons and a piercing shriek has haunted eastern regions since colonial times. Rooted in German immigrant folklore, the Snallygaster’s story is one of terror, sightings, and even a potential clash with the US President, Teddy Roosevelt. Could it be a manifestation of fear or a cryptid yet to be discovered? We’ll delve into the fascinating lore and uncover how this monster shaped local history. 
So come on and settle down as we sip on coffee from Matador Coffee Roasting Company in Flagstaff, AZ and get into some wickedly fun tales.
