Myterious Beasts and Strange Crime: Recent Episodes
Deborkah
We will be covering mysterious beasts; cryptids, legendary creatures, creatures of myth, and ghosts. I will cover what each category is, how it came to be, and the creatures that fall into these categories. Some creatures will fall under more than one category. Also, for fun, we will cover any strange crime connected to the creatures and their stories.
I'm going go through the events that led up to us celebrating the 4th of July or Independence Day. Then we will got over the USS North Carolina and the hauntings on the battleship.
