Happy Holidays! After a long hiatus, the Strange Dispatch is back, and we're talking about one of my absolute favorite cryptids of all time - the Michigan Dogman.

Legends of the Dogman in the Great Lakes State go back centuries. Tales of this elusive creature are some of the most terrifying encounters I've ever read. While the beast's roots aren't exclusive to Michigan, it is undoubtedly one of the state's most notorious monsters.

In this episode, I'm joined by a long-time friend, Vince Suchanek, to discuss the Dogman. We cover some of the most infamous stories to come out of Michigan, a weird encounter we had years ago in Manistee National Forest - a Dogman hotspot - and a first-hand encounter we heard directly from a man who had an absolutely terrifying run-in with one of the creatures in rural Tennessee. While his story didn't occur in Michigan, it was too incredible not to share on this episode.

If you've had an encounter with a Dogman, or any other strange or unusual experiences, we'd love to hear about it. Send us your story at StrangeDaysZine@gmail.com.

I hope you enjoy this episode while you take a break from all of the holiday festivities! Thanks so much for listening, and a special thanks to my co-host for this episode.

Stay safe, stay strange.
