The Loch Ness Monster

Many sightings of the Loch Ness Monster have brought this story into the headlines on countless occasions and hardly surprising it creates worldwide interest, since it was first reported on May 2, 1933 when the Inverness newspaper released an article entitled, "A Strange Spectacle on Loch Ness" describing how Mrs. Mackay encountered the monster.

The dark grey criptid is famous for its long neck; horse-like head; humped back (one or two humps) and estimated to be between 15 to 40 feet long and weighing 2500 pounds.

The Loch Ness Monster, or Nessie as it is fondly nicknamed lives in the Scottish Highlands of Inverness and in a lake known as, Loch Ness. Loch Ness is a huge loch stretching some 23 miles

through Inverness. It is also an eerie place with its murky waters and endless streams of rising mist, giving it a somewhat sinister feel. It is easy to believe there could be something lurking in its deep waters, where the deepest point reaches 755 feet. Not many people are brave enough to stand at the water's edge, but some who dared have never been seen again.
