The Kinderhook Creature

This Wednesday night at 9pm at midnight at 3am in a cemetery...
We journey to Kinderhook, NY, a favorite of Frank’s, and Nick presents the tantalizing tale of the so-called “Kinderhook Creature.”

The sleepy town of Kinderhook in Upstate New York was anything but in the late 1970s and early 1980s. In his book, “The Kinderhook Creature and Beyond”, author Bruce Hallenbeck recounts his and his family’s encounters with strange Bigfoot-like creatures, as well as his fellow townfolk’s accounts.

The stories and evidence you hear tonight consist of sightings, disturbing vocalizations, footprints, and more. Stay tuned to hear of Bruce’s stories and how the “Kinderhook Creature” came to be yet another of the weird cryptids reported in New York State.
