Cryptidcore Anyone?

Black Shuck all the way!
not sure if that counts as a cryptid or is just local lore

That counts as a cryptid. The ozark howler is local lore, but it's a cryptid, so that counts.

I also discovered a cryptid called the wendigo which is so cute (things that I think are cute may be different for others), it's like a zombie deer mixed with a werewolf.

I should change my answer...I didn't even think about because it's never mentioned in "cryptid lore" - but the Mishipeshu (Underwater Panther) has been a favorite of mine since I started researching the Ancient Mississippian / Great Lake Cultures a few years ago. He's lord of the underworld and the opposite 'power creature' to thunderbirds (which get all the publicity lol)
