Lore

The Glawackus was a short-lived 1939 cryptid panic in Glastonbury, Connecticut, described as a bizarre hybrid with lion head, panther body, camel humps, and a whipping tail. Roaring at night and prowling mountains, it turned out to be a media-fueled hoax but captured the imagination as a regional monster legend.
