Here's a lake you'll want to avoid
Unless your desire is to die
Then by all means give it a whirl
I'll keep my feet here where it's dry
Deep in Sauk County, Wisconsin
Is an eerie, mist shrouded lake
It causes a bone chilling feel
That visitors say they can't take
----------
Out in the woods of Missouri
Witnesses have claimed to have seen
A beast unlike the shy Sasquatch
Momo is aggressive and mean
It has large, glowing, orange eyes
Somewhat of a pumpkin shaped head
Known as the Missouri Monster
And with it comes the stench of death

New Hampshire hasn't a monster
But it seems to be plaqued by ghosts

First spotted in Bulwagga Bay
Soon it gained notoriety
Some folks thought it should have a name
Since Lake Champlain was its playground
"CHAMP" would become its claim to fame
----------
Up in Northwestern Arkansas
Was spotted a lumbering beast
So very much like a Bigfoot
'Cept that it had much sharper teeth
So many stories have been told
And many descriptions differ
Of the Ape Man of Arkansas
Yet all of them makes one shiver

The Eternal Soldier
by Peter Jessop
In the waning days of World War II, a man lies injured in a London hospital, shrouded in mystery and confusion. He is an American serviceman, stripped of his identity and memories, save for the name John, and plagued by vivid visions of battles that
