This monster is supposed to inhabit Dildo Pond, near Dildo, Newfoundland, but I have been unable tto discover anything further about it. If any readers can furnish information, I would be most grateful.
The town of Dildo ia nearby. No one seems to know how it obtained its name. The area was inhabited by the Beothuk Indians in 1613, but it is not necessarily a First Nations name. One suggestion is that it was named by the Portuguese.
The town was there in 1711. Attempts by some to effect a name change have proved fruitless.
To complicate matters, there are two Dildo Ponds in the vicinity. It is unclear to the present writer which one is supposedly tenanted by the monster.
Information welcome!
