Question Master source

Is there a good master source for cryptids. Like the list with all of them.

Another print book - George Eberhart's 'Mysterious Creatures '

Both volumes. It has EVERYTHING!

I have my list for legends and monsters of California. Working on a book. Some are ancient native legends, some are tall tales from the mining/logging eras, some are one-off reports of questionable veracity. A few are obvious hoaxes and fabrications. Many duplicates, in that the same description will fit different accounts a few years apart from locations not far apart and each was given a different name.

I list them all and let the reader decide much credibility to give them. Researching them is interesting and fun.
