KAMOSS

Take care if you venture near the Klamath River in California.  Native American tradition holds that in it lurks the Kamoss, a huge snake.  The beast was known to the Native Americans and can find its way into sewers.  My source, David Paulides' book The Hoopa Project, is unclear whether there is supposed to be just one of these or a population.  Whichever, swim carefully in this body of water or, safer still, not at all.

1973: According to British authors Janet and Colin Bord, an unnamed witness sees a Bigfoot with a "human-like face" near "Lurer," Pennsylvania. No such town or other geographical feature  is listed by the U.S. Geological Survey's Geographic Names Information System online, indicating that "Lurer" does not exist. As a source for their report, the Bords site an article in Pursuit magazine, penned by alleged author "Alien V. Noe." Barring further documentation, call this one a probable hoax.
