URBAN LEGEND SASQUATCH

We're all familiar with Urban Legends : The Hitchhiker, The Hook, The Melon Heads. The list goes on and one. Urban legends have been with us for hundreds of years. And now one is getting a new twist, starring bigfoot.

While researching the Boggy Creek Monster from Kettering, Ohio, I ran across another story for which I can discover no date, no names, no other report except this brief mention in a book.

So, on to the tale :

Some teens decided on an impromptu camping trip. After letting their parents know they were heading out, they took off to find a good spot.  They ended up camped alongside a creek at the far end of a field. The next morning, after waiting awhile for the teens to come home, the parents went out to find them.

After looking around, they were finally able to find the remains of a small campsite. The fire was still smoking, but there was no sign of the teens.

It is said that they were attacked and killed during the night by the Boggy Creek Monster. 

True or not, the teens were never found or heard from again.
