We all have our urban legend and myth, most of them are oax, here we have the monster of the lak call Memphre, and it is say many has seen it even news papers, so I am sorry but it will take me more then second hand sight, for this type of thinfgs I need first eye to eye contact.
Or at least a good, not a blurry, but an excellent poloroid, not a photo that can be fix, but a poloroid.
With all the wierdness Ive seen in my travels, and all the creepy shit Ive come up against, while I dont know exactly what it might be, I sure am not so much a fool as to doubt that something like that might actually exitst. Though at the same time I dont think ALL of those people saw this creature. Humans hear about it once and then see it forever. They're wierd.
It depends on how drunk he was, how well lit the place was, and how many psychos in lizards suits happened to be around at the time. I imagine the first sighting was just a hallucination, and the rest were made up or the result of mass hysteria.
Yeah..I know what it is..I see it sometimes..*puff puff*
Just Kidding, I think it was a hallucination, a mindtrick. A young( problebly drunk,stoned and on drugs) reading too much Sci-Fi and in his rush he sees something that is taken of a magazine.
Or maybe it was a man that ran, and the way the light fell gave his eyes a reddish glow.
I think maybe it might be some creature sience has yet to Identify. I mean science has explained many things and also not explored many things.
I guess we may never know.
Hahaha, this is definitely one of the funnier ones. Is it a hoax, a number of overactive imaginations, or the truth? We may never know, and it's better that way.
it very well could be an attention getter by some kid who wanted attention but it is interesting in anycase. If it is a creature there are more and maybe we should let it be.
hey that sounds just like this movie i saw it was called gator face.... aboutt a gator that walked on to legs like a man, he had a tail and gator skin, and bright blue eyes, poorly made movie but good non the less... now if you believe in things like the loch ness monster, and big foot, and chupacubra, well i believe in two out of the three... but other than that i dont believe in them...
I am from south carolina, no longer live there, but have family and friends there. I have heard nothing of this charachter from them, but who knows? It sounds like a swamp-version of the "Sasquatch" lore we have all heard so much of. If you want an interesting story from the Coastal areas and Barrier Islands, do some research on "The Grey Man." VERY interesting tale, that one. I have family members who have seen him. He appears 2-3 days before a hurricane, to warn of the approaching storm.
dont know what it could be, but i know that i aint gonna be driving some backwoods road in lee county now lol
What if it was real what do you think would happen to it.
In researching about the lizard man, this is what I found.
South Carolina lizards are not aggressive. However, that doesn't rule out the possibility. Some lizards such as the 10-foot long Komodo dragons of Indonesia could be perceived as very aggressive. I have been unable to find any that would eat chrome, but "no experiments have ever been designed to feed metal to lizards."
Another theory could be that the Lizard Man was looking for a mate. Some male lizards will sometimes move long distances looking for mates, and could explain why Lizard Man was always in a hurry. We must then assume that Lizard Women look like cars, and instead of biting the chrome bumper Lizard Man was kissing it.
As far as Lizard Man walking upright, the basilisk lizards of tropical America and collared lizards of the Southwest run on their back legs.
In the end I'm not saying the Lizard Man story is true or not true. The point is that there are so many amazing creatures in the world that it's not necessary to make one up. We don't have to invent mythical animals. We have enough real ones to keep us fascinated for a lifetime.
I mean..there's always the possibility of its existence...Im not one to say it simply can't exist...because...who knows?
Its things like that that really make a person wonder about the government and nuclear plants and such. Speaking from a scientific point of view here, the only such things I have ever encountered that sound like the lizzard man, is located in museums. dinosaurs to be exact. but what if they all didnt go extinct? but evolutionized? take the alligator and crocodile for instance. they have been around since dinosaurs roamed and they didnt go extinct. but mereley evolved to the world around them. i do think perhaps that this could have happened in the lizzard man issue.
It's possible, until proven impossible. Selfish and arrogant to think we are it.
whoo hoo about time for something besides vampires damn those threads are being beatn to hell
I am going to speak with friends in South Carolina, and see what I can find out, as to more information om this topic. I will try to post it tomorrow. What part of S. Carolina is Lee Creek in? Anyone know?
humm very interesting whether it's true or false I can't say but not everything in this world has been explained so it might be or might not but very interesting subject none the less
Im fairly certain that lizards are native to that area....maybe it WAS a mutation of sorts..
Ohio apparently has something similar called the "Loveland Frog" if I remember right.
Even if someone did see this "creature" I doubt any of the other sightings are real.
Personally I think the kid could've been confused, he might well have seen something, it just might not have been what he thought it was. And whenever one person see's something everybody else automatically decides they've seen it as well.
maybe...he did see some sort of lizard man type thing...but...exaggerated it. i mean...the glowing eyes are VERY unlikely...
The mindi s apowerful tool. Sometimes people will see things because they want to. not saying it couldn`t happen but I would guess about 1 out of every 10 calls were people who actually saw something for real.
ok heres a thought, what happens when you see a cat at night when light shines in its eyes? they "glow" from the reflection of the light. so that could be an explanation of sorts...
thats true...I mean..there was the headlights of the vehicle..
Honestly I havent seen nor heard anything.... And I lived in south carolina for a while...
This sounds a lot like the LoupGarou (sp?) here in Cajun Country.
i love this stuff...i've had a fascination with it since i was a kid, long before the X-files...
i imagine that there's alot we don't see regarding intelligent creatures. i mean, concerning Bigfoot, the Loch Ness monster and the like, i think they'd be smart enough to keep their distance from humans, but play with us every now and then...my theory on UFO's and close encounters is much the same.
Honestly, I don't know what to think. It could be anything. Just another story like that of Bigfoot or the Cupacabra. Who really knows...
I have not ever heard of this before yet I know the mind can play tricks on you when you are scared and especially alone on a dark road.. so who is to really say until it is proven one way or another.
Every culture as its own monsters...
Im pretty sure its a myth, started by someone, many years ago...
I lived in South Carolina for over 4 years yet this is the first I ever heard the story, Yet you know the mind can play tricks on you also .... who is to say until it is proven one way or another....
In Portugal we have a myth also...
Very old, but, everyone stills believeing in it...
"Tardo" is the name....
Some kind of a black cat, wandering at night, eyes full of fire, etc...
For me, someone needed to find a "creature" to define, his own demons...
The truth is, today is the day, that everyone believes in it...
my question is,why are so many people ready to dismiss this thing as a myth? I personally have witnessed some things in my life that I still have no explanation for and still it happened just the same.
This is so interesting. I love reading about stuff like this. What was going through my mind reading that story was "Man, he must have been on some really hard drugs" haha, either that, or it really happened. I have dreamed of weird creatures that were never known to existence. It does creep me out a little..it could be possible.
I love hearin these stories too. Either the guy was on drugs (like the person above me said) or a guy dressed up in a suit or he had a birth defect that made him look lik an alligator. I dunno.
I bet, the first person to seem him/it, it has saw it at night...
Another good trick by our brain...
I have a hard time believing that there is a lizard man anywhere, but there could be for all i know. It's more likely that it was a trick of the mind that made those people see what they saw, but who can say for sure?
we all have some reptile in our DNA - we ultimately come from the same evolutionary tree. it is possible that some defect during gestation could result in a person being born with some reptilian characteristics. if such a child survived, its mother would probably try to hide it - so it would most likely grow up in darkness. its eyes would be reflective - like an animals (hence the glow), and its skin pale - so that it could appear to take on any colour that may reflect on it. alternatively, the greenish look could be a fungal growth of some kind.
if John Merrick had not found fame, who would have believed Elephant Man to be real?
i think it may be true - but it is probably a one of freak, rather than an undicovered race.
I believe it is an urban legend and myth but that does not nessicarily mean it is total fiction.
i 4 1 like the urban lengad of lizerd man and i think that it is something but probley not a man that looks like a lizerd but it is fun to think so!!!!! lol
i agree with lilgothbitch really just an urban legend, but maybe more like that movie, Wrong Turn
