BEHOLD! THE KENTUCKY GOBLIN! - Lexington, Kentucky. A life-size representation of a Kelly-Hopkinsville (Kentucky) “Goblin” seen at the 2019 Cryptid Con event held at Lexington’s Clarion Hotel. This curious “alien creature” shared the stage with “Alien Legacy” author Geraldine Sutton-Stith as she recounted the bizarre and frightening events of August 21st, 1955, at her grandmother’s farm in Kelly, in which the Sutton Family home was reportedly besieged by a group of these “goblin-like” beings following the sighting (and likely landing) of a flying saucer. The famous “Kelly-Hopkinsville Encounter” is a classic case in UFO lore that remains unexplained to this day.

DAVID PAULIDES TALKS BIGFOOT AND MISSING 411 - Lexington, Kentucky. Former veteran police detective turned author and mystery investigator David Paulides talks Bigfoot case evidence at the 2019 Cryptid Con held in Lexington, Kentucky. A researcher with the North American Bigfoot Search, Paulides is quite knowledgeable in all things Sasquatch. His real expertise, however, is demonstrated through his “Missing 411” investigations into cases and patterns in which people have disappeared under mysterious circumstances in our National and State Parks systems. Mr. Paulides’s Missing 411 books and documentaries are quite popular among researchers of the Unknown, as evidenced by the packed house at this event. Intriguing stuff.
