批評家のレビュー
"Take a shot of monstrous menace, add to it a high degree of abominable intrigue, and top it all off with a dose of near-Lovecraftian-style terror, and you have Lyle Blackburn's The Beast of Boggy Creek. Destined to become a cryptozoological classic!" (Nick Redfern, author of Monster Diary and There's Something in the Woods)
"For too long, the story of the Fouke Monster has been mired in a murky morass where the distinction between legend, reality, and cult movies blur together. In this fantastic tome, Lyle Blackburn deftly wades through the boggy bayous to chronicle the strange but true history of the greatest monster legend of the American South. An extremely enjoyable and spooky ride, this book will make you wonder if a monstrous man-beast might indeed be watching you from the shadowy confines of the bottomlands." (Sean Whitley, director of Southern Fried Bigfoot)
"Like many, I was inspired as a child by watching Legend of Boggy Creek. It is the main reason I am an anthropologist today! This book brought back all those memories of watching the movie as a child and being fascinated with the beast that always follows the creeks. This is a must-have for all movie fans, history buffs, and bigfooters!" (Kathy Moskowitz, author of Giants, Cannibals and Monsters: Bigfoot in Native Culture)
あらすじ・解説
For more than a century, reports of a strange beast known as the Fouke Monster have circulated among the locals in southern Arkansas. Described as a large hairy man-like creature, it's said to haunt the vast Sulphur River Bottoms as it travels the secluded waterway known as Boggy Creek.
Over the years, the creature has been seen by numerous witnesses including respected citizens, experienced hunters, famous musicians, and even a police officer. The encounters were often so shocking, they served as inspiration for the classic horror film, The Legend of Boggy Creek, by Charles B. Pierce.
Tales of the creature have long existed in scattered pieces across news clippings, memoirs, police reports, and movies, but it is only now that the complete history of the Fouke Monster has been assembled in one place. This book collects all the facts, theories, and amazing sighting reports, and weaves them into a fascinating tale about this undeniable Southern mystery, one that lives on, as frightening encounters with the Beast of Boggy Creek are still being reported today!
