Beyond Bigfoot: Creatures of Folklore

What's that lurking in the lake or wandering through the woods?

Learn about Sasquatch and other mysterious creatures - from the Pacific Northwest and around the world - with author and cryptid fanatic J.P. Barnett. From the well-known Loch Ness Monster to the elusive Dobhar-chú of Ireland, J.P. is ready to talk all things cryptid, from the legends that inspire us to the fiction that keeps those legends alive.

J.P. Barnett is the author of the six-part Lorestalker series, a collection of tales following two college girls as they hunt cryptids instead of going to class. Inspired by creatures of folklore such as Bigfoot, the Kraken, Hogzilla, and the Dobhar-chú, the Lorestalker series is sure to satisfy the cravings of any cryptid enthusiast. His novels have received a number of honors, including the Kindle Book Award, Pinnacle Achievement Award, and Readers' Favorite Five-Star Award.
