The Loveland Frogman | Ohio Legends and Tales Cryptids
Channel: Josh Bearheart Hawk
Date: 2022-07-01

In March of 1972 a police officer in the small town of Loveland, Ohio would spot a strange looking creature crawling across Riverside drive. The creature would turn out to be something he never expected. The legend of the Loveland Frogman may have been going around as early as 1955, but the sighting in 1972 would propel it into fame and eventually even result in a musical being made called "Hot Damn! It's the Loveland Frog!".
