The Owlman of Mawnan Smith – Cryptid Campfire Video Podcast

There’s a cryptid and a wizard at the center of the story being discussed in this week’s episode of the Paranormal Network video podcast series Cryptid Campfire! The cryptid in question is the Owlman, a.k.a. the Death Raptor, a winged humanoid creature that was said to have terrorized the small Cornish village of Mawnan in the late 1970s. How does a wizard factor in this? Well, you’ll have to check out the video embedded above to hear about that.

Here’s the information on Cryptid Campfire and its hosts:

Cryptid Campfire serves as an entry point into the cryptid world where beings such as Bigfoot, Mothman and the other mysterious creatures lurk in the dark. Join us as we attempt to decipher fact from fiction and the truth behind the world’s strangest phenomena.

Alexander Daikaiju is a comic book artist from Los Angeles. He is a walking, talking encyclopedia of miscellaneous Godzilla knowledge. Cryptids often influence his art, so naturally he’s jumping at the bit to discuss the monsters that haunt his imagination.

Jasmine With is an actress with a knack for storytelling. Her interest in cryptids and the paranormal stem back to her involvement with the Ghost Adventures fan community, where she became an acquaintance of Nick Groff. Her organizational skills are crucial to keeping the other members of Cryptid Campfire on track.

Eli Watson is filmmaker from Southern California. Ever since childhood, Bigfoot has been on his brain. And the paranormal activity he experienced in a former residence has only intrigued him more. Since then, Eli has been on multiple squatching trips which only lend to his knowledge of the topics discussed around the Cryptid Campfire.
