Cryptid Corner: The Loveland Frogman (Ohio)
Spotted in Loveland, Ohio since the 1950s, the Frogman is described as a 3–4 foot tall amphibious creature walking on two legs. One report claimed the creature held a “wand” emitting sparks, and another claimed to have seen it scurry into the Little Miami River. Strange? For sure. But the Frogman has a cult following and even inspired a local musical. Ribbit with mystery.
Good morning, good afternoon and good night sincerely from your friend Me aka Jeffery
