One-footed Snorkel Monster

So I was listening to Coast to Coast AM the other night on my way home from work and there was a guest speaker on (can't remember his name) but he told this amazing story about this guy living in Alabama and he wakes up because he thinks there is rain falling on the roof of his trailer. He goes outside and sees a monster/alien that he can only describe as a "one-footed snorkel monster" because it had a single elephant's trunk connected to a large bird's foot. He said it was standing in his yard and then it began to spin in place and turned into a bright ball of light and flew around and under his truck. He woke his family up and they all saw it. The next day, there are trees knocked down in his back yard and his dog is injured. His wife sees the monster again and it starts spinning again. Supposedly there were mythological creatures that slightly resembled this monster. Does anyone know what kind of mythological being he could be referrring to? I turned the radio off then, but I was just wondering if anyone has ever heard of anything like this? It sounds really familiar to a monster I saw when I was younger when I lived in the Mojave Desert, except I've never heard of anyone seeing a creature that at all resembles it until now. Does anyone have any info at all or has anyone seen a similar creature?

One-footed snorkel monster? Wow, C2C is getting more and more ridiculous everyday...maybe it was a tornado.

thank you, I heard that show, but couldn't remember what they had called the thing. I want to do a search on the net, see if anything comes up. weird little creature.

found it...and probably found out who the guest was on coast to coast.

williamhenry.net...

he also has a good article on his site concerning Bush's "shock and awe" campaign that is an interesting read...

That is very strange. Unfortunately, I missed that particular broadcast.

I would like to know if you find anything out in your research, please post.

That has to be THE weirdest encounter I have EVER heard of! lol

dawnstar, thanks a bunch for posting that link! I just thought it was such an interesting-sounding creature. However, I had trouble finding the article about Bush, where on the site is it located? Thanks again.

ya, sorry about that, I had found the article I was talking about awhile back....pretty far back really...and well, he must of taken it down...but well, Whitley Strieber has it on his.

www.unknowncountry.com...

according to it, "Shock and Awe" is pronounce the same as Shakina.
"as the Divine Presence of God, a force of immense power that emanated from the Ark of the Covenant."

I find myself wondering if Bush and his buddies knew this before they used the term.

Wow that is one crazy encounter, (crazy like weird). Some people have all the fun....

Maybe we could all hide in your ingnorance shelter until it is over. I have no doubt there are still many unexplained creatures hiding in, on, and around this planet.

I agree with that statement, but I seriously doubt one of them is the one-footed snorkel monster

A few may still have survived.

I’ll need to check with my ex about her ongoing family genealogy project; since she has recently discovered and can explain fully the origin of the Yelping 'Needy' Yeti, Hill-country 'Hypochondriac' Hyena and the 'Land Locked' Screeching Whale (mother's side).

Was it a one-eyed, one-horned, flying...

These creatures sound like the one and only DUFFLEPUDS! Anyone who has read voyage of the dawn treader will know who these characters are. Fair enough, they look harmless and kind enough, but when they were invisible they threatened to kill the entire party (children included) if they did not help them turn visible again...




Scary stuff for a childrens book... laced with underminings and lessons of life.

It sounds like an acid flashback to me.

Something from Dr. Suess or Fantaisa perhaps?

One-footed Snorkel Monsters?



Just one foot, or one-foot tall?

Yo, just one foot.

I was doing some research and some dude I correspond with over the net told me he once saw an alien that had one foot and a big old eyeball. It kinda cracked me up. Probably because this dude used to do a lot of acid, so his mind is all screwed up.

Never seen or heard of a 1 footed snorkel monster. I've only seen black 2-footed monsters that appeared to be wearing scuba tanks.

If I was going to have to see an alien or a monster, I would choose to see a one-footed snorkel monster. Because then I could say

I saw a one-footed snorkel monster...and that's not something you see every day.

Yeah, but I want to see it do its lethal death-twirl.

T-shirt reads:

snorkel monster's
death twirl...

want to mess with
me?
