Oklahoma Octopus — Paranoia Alert
As amateur cryptozoologists, we thought we knew all the creatures who stalk the world’s conspiracy theories, from the Loch Ness Monster to the chupacabra to the Montauk Monster.
But we had never heard of the latest terrifying creature known as the Oklahoma Octopus until last night’s episode of “The Lost Tapes” on Animal Planet.
Although “they” will tell you there is no known freshwater octopus, some Oklahomans report sightings of horse-sized lake octopi, with leathery, reddish-brown skin and a shark-like disposition.
The Oklahoma Octopus is said to be violently territorial, and a voracious predator who sucks lake swimmers to their deaths.
