Download or read book Monsters of Ohio written by J. C. Raphael and published by Mill City Press, Incorporated. This book was released on 2021-11-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A large, black, prehistoric serpent that makes its home in Lake Erie. A titanic hairy humanoid with glowing orange eyes who spies on any teenagers brave enough to park near its lovers' lane home. A giant owl the size of a tree so adept at camouflage it can practically disappear. A nocturnal race of tiny, melon-headed feral humans who roam the woods looking for victims to feast on. These are but some of the creatures of cryptozoology, folklore and urban legend that readers will meet in the pages of Monsters of Ohio, the first book of its kind to completely chronicle the state's population of mystery animals and the stories told about them. In addition to thirteen Buckeye State monsters-from infamous ones like The Lake Erie Monster, The Loveland Frogs and The Grassman, to lesser-known local legends like The Crosswick Monster, Bighoot and The Defiance Wolfman-the book also includes a parade of mysterious creatures that were only sighted once before disappearing...if, of course, they were ever really there at all. J.C. Raphael was born in Ashtabula, Ohio. He earned a bachelor's degree in English from Gannon University in Erie, Pennsylvania. He began freelance writing at age 17 with a film review of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein for The Plain Dealer, and has continued writing reviews of stuff ever since. He worked as a staff writer for a small suburban newspaper and as a writer and editor for a small, independent altweekly in Columbus, Ohio. He now works as a public library clerk and freelance writer. He lives in Mentor, Ohio.

Book excerpt: Do you believe in Bigfoot? Or are you one of them people who snicker every time you hear the subject mentioned? There is no in between! You either believe in the Big Hairy Man or you dont. The author of this book not only believes but is also willing to stake his name and reputation on it as well. In this book entitled The Ohio Monster, be prepared to set aside your personal beliefs and take a closer look at the circumstances surrounding the authors encounters with the creature. Skeptics will be hard-pressed to rationalize away the belief that this could be nothing more than a man dressed in a monkey suit out to play tricks on somebody. Hailing from the backwoods of the State of Ohio, the author came face-to-face at an early age with his greatest feara large hairy monster! For the longest time, he tried his best to keep away from the Thing, as he called it, but he simply couldnt outrun destiny. Now with the passage of time, he feels the thing (Bigfoot) may have singled him out (continued to appear to him) because he knew that one day this man would end up defending him. Crazy, right? Well, welcome to the world of the supernatural, where everythings possible. Its a world wherein the elites of science cannot prove or disprove these kind of things. Its a world where the average citizen is encouraged to think for themselves without the added baggage of the scientific world telling them otherwise. No body or bones to prove Bigfoot exists? No problem! With a thousand or more verifiable sighting reports within the last fifty years or so, somebody is seeing something! They cant all be lying. And if so, for what purpose? Some even have long-standing careers on the line and still have felt obligated to come forward with their encounters. People from all over the world and from all walks of life have claimed to have seen monstrous types of beings before. If true, what do we have? Ill tell you what we have . . . we have an honest to gosh monster on our hands, thats what! And thats exactly what this book is aboutthe authors experiences with just one of these type of beings dubbed the Ohio monster!

Book Synopsis Mobsters, Madams & Murder in Steubenville, Ohio by : Susan Guy
Download or read book Mobsters, Madams & Murder in Steubenville, Ohio written by Susan Guy and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This true crime history chronicles more than a century in the life of a small Midwestern city with an outsized reputation for violence and vice. Gambling, prostitution and bootlegging have been going on in Steubenville for well over century. In its heyday, the city’s Water Street red-light district drew men from hundreds of miles away, as well as underage runaways. The white slave trade was rampant, and along with all the vice crimes, murders became a weekly occurrence. This revealing history chronicles the rise of Steubenville’s prodigious underworld from the 1890s to the modern day. By the turn of the century, Steubenville’s law enforcement seemed to turn a blind eye, and cries of political corruption were heard in the state capital. This scenario replayed itself over and over again during the past century as mobsters and madams ruled and murders plagued the city and surrounding county at an alarming rate. Newspapers nationwide would come to nickname this mecca of murder "Little Chicago."
