I've always sort of liked Cryptozoology. The thing that really bothers me, however, is that there's just as much evidence that a lot of them could exist as there is evidence disputing it.

I've always wanted to do a book for this sort of thing. Not just explaining the creatures, but having an honest discussion as to why they both could and could not exist & finishing up by saying which is more likely.

there are several books about Cryptozoology that do just that. I like really thick books about cryptozoology that are just packed with detail. I'm reading one right now.

I try not to think about superstitions because they come from long-outdated ideas of ye olde times and don't really have any basis in fact. Superstitions are one of those things that have connected in us quite strongly, though, so even by saying the obvious that of course these things are not true, we still have a worry in the back of our minds; meaning if we walk towards a ladder we probably will deliberate it in our mind the fact it is 'unlucky' and go around it... just in case. To be fair, the ladder one is pretty good advice in that there could be the risk if someone's up there that something could fall onto a person below.
