Update on the Monsterquest Schedule...

According to the RSS feed, after August 13th, there is a rerun episode of MQ from the first season on the American Werewolf. I am not sure when there will be new episodes, but it should be relatively soon after August 13th. Watch this blog for further details.

Review: Monsterquest 7-30-08

Monsterquest was great tonight, about the Legends of the Hairy Beast or Hairy Man, with several Northern Californian Native Americans who described sightings and also their legends, including of the Mayak' Datat' of the Yurok Tribe, which Kathy Strain has been looking into for many years (she was also on the episode to discuss her impressions and the history of the Hairy Man), along with the Pictographs of the Mayak' Datat". John Freitas is interviewed about a 2001 encounter he and James "Bobo" Fay had where Fay had a sighting of a Bigfoot. Fay and Cliff Barackman are interviewed on their impressions and thoughts on the Northern California sightings, as well as going on expedition where they go out on the Klamath River in a boat doing call-blasting, as well as following an expedition in the Suattle River Valley in Washington State with Dr. Briggs Hall and Bill Evans where they set up gamecams and some bait in a tree 12 feet high. There are also some sound recordings analyzed and one of them seems to be quite intriguing to the analyst. Next week, MQ investigates Vampires in America, beginning at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central on History. Check local listings for time and channel.

CURSE OF THE BIGFOOT

Native American history is full of "Hairy Man" stories and cave art that date back over a thousand years. Did Native Americans know the truth behind the Bigfoot legend? An expedition along the Klamath River into reservation land will use state of the art technology to search for something locals don't doubt is real. With unprecedented access to Native American stories and recent sightings, MonsterQuest examines this creature that is both feared and revered.

August 6th-

NEW ENGLAND VAMPIRE

Most people agree that vampires are fictional creatures, but throughout history and even today, there have been cases of people who thirst for blood. These "real vampires" believe that in order to survive, they must feed on the life-force of others. In this episode, we investigate these living vampires to find out if there is a physical reason behind their cravings. Can science separate the fact from the fiction surrounding these "creatures of the night"?

August 13th-

MONSTER OF WHITEHALL

In 1976, in upstate New York, several police officers witnessed an animal that they can't explain. They describe it as a "large creature, 7 to 8 feet tall, walking like a gorilla hunched over, making a sound like a woman screaming." Over thirty years later sightings are continuing and these police officers have agreed to be put to the test. Meanwhile, MonsterQuest teams up with local researchers and renowned wildlife experts on the trail of the Monster of Whitehall

August 20th-

PREHISTORIC CAVE BEARS

Coming soon....

August 27th-

BONELESS HORROR

Throughout history there have been sightings of a massive Octopus big enough to attack and sink boats. Could such a creature really exist? MonsterQuest divers probe the depths of the North Pacific where the world's largest known species of octopus lives. The investigation will use special infrared cameras to probe octopus lairs and hunt in the darkness of night when this predator of the sea may be more active.

September 3rd-

CHINA'S WILDMAN

A Wild-Man may roam the mountainous and forested regions of China's remote Hubei province. Witnesses typically report that the creature is covered in reddish-brown hair, five to seven feet tall, and walks on two legs. To the Chinese authorities, who recently collected over one hundred unidentified hairs, it is not a matter of if this creature will be found, but when. An expedition to the Far East will meet the Wild-Man experts and join an international team in a search for answers.

September 10th-

GIANT EELS OF CANADA

Coming soon...

September 17th-

GIANT SPIDERS

In 2006 an American soldier in Iraq was photographed with what appeared to be a three foot long arachnid. Meanwhile in the forests of Peru there are reports of spiders big enough to eat an entire chicken. A MonsterQuest expedition into the wilderness of South America goes on the hunt for a monster-sized predatory spider and examines man's fear of these creatures.

September 24th-

GIANT SQUID FOUND II

The Sea of Cortez holds a monster of gigantic proportions. Video evidence of what appeared to be a huge squid, 1000 feet under the ocean's surface, was captured in 2006 by a Monster Quest expedition team. The footage is less than 2 seconds long, and difficult to analyze, but some experts believed the squid was up to 100 feet long. Now, MonsterQuest returns to the area with improved technology to find proof of this legendary sea beast.

October 1st-

JAWS IN ILLINOIS

Are dangerous ocean predators prowling American rivers? Few people realize that the bull shark can tolerate fresh water, swimming hundreds of miles upstream from the ocean. History suggests it has at times penetrated up the Mississippi River as far as Illinois. The episode will examine the behavior of the bull shark and dive in the St. Lawrence Seaway to uncover another giant, the Greenland Shark. It can grow bigger than the Great White and has been known to head inland and eat land animals like caribou.

October 8th-

REAL DRAGONS

The huge Megalania lizard once stalked early man, but history says that the lizard is long extinct. But could massive and deadly reptiles be making a comeback? A MonsterQuest team travels to the Blue Mountains of Australia in search of those who say the Megalaina still exists. Meanwhile, another expedition looks at Megalania's closest living cousin: the Komodo Dragon. These giant reptiles can reach sizes of over ten feet long and have a venomous bite. We examine recent reports of attacks and even killings by the world's largest known lizards.

October 15th-

SASQUATCH ATTACK II

Something has been attacking a remote cabin in Northern and it may have left behind a blood trail. DNA analysis suggested that the creature is a non-human primate. Now a follow up test will confirm or deny this, and the results could change history. Meanwhile, a new expedition, outfitted with the most advanced surveillance and detection equipment, will set up camp at the cabin and wait for the creature's imminent return.
