Is This Champ? The Legendary “Monster” of Lake Champlain?

By Dorraine Fisher

Lake Champlain is a 125 mile (201 km) long strip of freshwater lake located between New York State and Vermont, extending all the way up into Quebec, Canada. It is named for Samuel De Champlain, the founder of Quebec. But the most intriguing thing about it is the legend of Champ, the monster that’s believed to live in the lake.

Many believe the creature could possibly be a relic plesiousaur, a dinosaur believed to have become extinct during the early part of the Jurassic period, but somehow managed to survive after the lake dried up somewhat and was cut off from the larger body of salt water which included the Atlantic Ocean.

Many people in the area believe the stories are just legend with no real basis except to boost tourism around the lake. But since Champlain’s time, there have been hundreds of supposed sightings.

One of the most notable scientists searching for evidence of Champ’s existence is Scott Mardis who has graciously allowed me to share this with our followers. According to Mardis, a man named Eric Olson was out taking his morning walk in Oakledge Park near Burlington, Vermont , when he captured this video on his cell phone.

Here in episode 7, I talk about one of the more popular theories about bigfoot. Many feel that bigfoot is connected to the Nephilim.
Plus I cover some more topics.

Here is the episode

The Camp Beauregard Memorial, outside Water Valley, Kentucky on Kentucky state road 2422 northeast of town, marks the site of Camp Beauregard during the American Civil War. It was named for Confederate General P. G. T. Beauregard. It was situated to protect the right flank of the Confederate base at Columbus, Kentucky.

While an active military installation, from September 1861 to March 1, 1862, it trained 5,000-6,000 soldiers for the Confederate States of America.

However, the place was disease-ridden, resulting in 1,000-1,500 deaths at the camp. The diseases included cerebrospinal meningitis, pneumonia, and typhoid fever with poor weather and lack of sufficient supplies for the troops contributing to the dire situation. In a single day, 75 cases of typhoid and pneumonia were reported.

Under the direction of the 27th Tennessee Regiment's Colonel Thomas Logwood, the camp was burned down. Union forces captured the site shortly after the abandonment.




A monument was erected by the United Daughters of the Confederacy in 1909 to commemorate the soldiers that died there and supposedly, some 900 soldiers are buried in a mass grave under the monument…..but some folks say those soldiers are STILL THERE today?




Here is an experience from my friend, Dana M.:

“My best experience: I was with a group of friends at night. It was very late. We all branched off wandering around reading headstones. I went off to myself. 

I was standing reading a large monument and the name "Dorothy" screamed in my head. It was weird. I turned around and when I shined my light on the headstone behind me her name was Dorothy. It was surreal.

We heard the beast and ran to the car and left. These events are all separate nights. The last time I went my friend Bob was in town. I had not seen him in 25 years. We went to the cemetery. He also went with another group. This was in August of 2012. In March of 2014, he died in his sleep.
My other friend Karen and I went as a group and took pictures. About three months later she died on her living room floor. I will not go back I'm also very ill but that's another novella.”

Other reports include:
One person explains he has seen lights dancing on some of the headstones and seeing various dark figures running through the graves only to vanish.

There’s also a black beast-like figure that supposedly will chase visitors in an attempt to make them leave.

One night, two individuals said the “beast” followed them for several miles before flooding their car with an over-whelming scent of cinnamon before vanishing.

Also, there are reports of people hearing combat sounds, including what has been described as the sound of sabers clashing.

Sometimes, all of us Bigfoot enthusiasts need to take a break and watch a good movie...so it may as well be a Bigfoot movie! Here are the top 5 Bigfoot movies of all time! Well, at least according to us at this time. 

 If you have not seen them ..then you need to.

In this episode, I talk about the controversial bigfoot subjects that include cloaking, mindspeak, and portals. Does Bigfoot have the ability to turn invisible? Can Bigfoot speak to you with its mind? Does Bigfoot use portals to travel and go to other dimensions?
I give my thoughts and opinions about all of it. You may agree or disagree.

Bigfoot: The Unforgettable Encounter

Running Time: 88 Minutes

It's time for another episode of The Crypto Files!
In this episode, we take a look at a video of a yeti. The video was sent to us by one of our followers. The figure moves to the right in the video but what is odd is that at the first of the video, it is just standing there frozen. Have a look and see what you think about it...is this real or is it a hoax?

The Crypto Files Episode 8 - Is this a real Yeti?

My Crypto World - Episode 3 - In this episode I talk a little about my background and growing up, and I talk about some of my early research with an old local cave I also talk a little about Dogman and tell about some possible local sightings that could be a dogman.

Also, this is the longest running episode so far. I'm going to try and keep them a little shorter than this one.
