Truth or Tale Tale? Legends of Creatures Reportedly Seen in Michigan

I have heard of Bigfoot and the Michigan Dogman. But Pressie, the Lake Superior Monster? That one is new.

From the article:

Whether it’s campfire tall tales or actual experiences, stories have been spread throughout the Mitten state on strange creatures lurking among us. Michigan has quite a few folklore stories passed down through generations, some of which focus on living creatures that Michiganders have reportedly seen with their own eyes.

Pressie is a Plesiosaur-like creature found in Lake Superior. Pressie is described as a Plesiosaur-like creature with a long, thick neck, a horse-like head, and a large body with a whale-like tail. Pressie is said to behave like a snake and in 1897 a man fell off his yacht and reported that Pressie coiled around him and tried to constrict him. Experts believe however that Pressie could be a sturgeon.

My amazing anniversary gift, commissioned by @ketsie! His name is Heledhon, and he’s for my husband for our 8 year. She finished this beauty ages ago, but it had to wait to brag about because I had to actually give him to my  husband first. He follows my Tumblr. xD :3 Isn’t he gorgeous? Now my husband wants to keep an eye out to commission her for a series of other OCs and favorite characters. :3

I suck at tags so feel free to fill in some fitting ones.
