: paranormal creatures

/ˌparəˈnɔːml/ + /ˈkriːtʃə/

"From the murderous Tokoloshe of southern Africa to the peaceful Loch Ness Monster of Scotland, belief in paranormal creatures persist. These aren’t myths and legends like the minotaur or the cyclops, these are said to be real ‘paranormal’ creatures that share our world. Some believe they come and go through interdimensional rips while others believe they have always been here lurking in the darker and less hospitable regions from unexplored forests to city slums. Some are benign, but most are unpleasant and still terrify many communities around the world."
