St. Augustine Monster
Posted by: Loren Coleman on March 21st, 2008
For those on Spring Break now venturing South, don’t forget to see if there’s any evidence of the St. Augustine cryptid (1896) currently being popularized in that Florida East Coast city today.

Ahhh, the good ol St Augustine Globster! So they finally did analyze the stuff and determined the origin of the tissue? Cool. Good to know.
I remember way back in the day when I was totally fascinated by globsters. To me, they were these mysterious enigmas from the deep and my mind ran amok with speculation as to what they could be. Science has come a long way towards pretty handily explaining their more mundane origins, though. Nowadays, I don’t believe there are too many credible reports of mysterious globsters or carcasses that haven’t been able to be explained as decomposing whales or other marine life, are there? It detracts from the mystery of the phenomena, but it is thrilling that science can now be brought to bear to better understand what is really going on in these kinds of cases.
MM- once again you said extremely well exactly what was in my own mind. Thanks!
I am glad to know what the blob is. Maybe someday there will be one that cannot be identified.
