MOMO, THE MONSTER THAT TIME FORGOT
from 1001 Heroes, Legends, Histories & Mysteries Podcast · host Jon Hagadorn Podcast Host
For a few months back in the summer of 1972, a shaggy beast terrorized the tiny town of Louisiana Missouri, scaring the living bejezuz out of kids and adults and mystifying researchers. He had been spotted at a year previous but forgotten- passed off as a prank, but when he came back, he did so with a vengeance- killing at least one dog, and running one family out of their home. He left genuine three toed footprints, smelled like long dead meat, and had thick black hair covering his face and body. He was witnessed by dozens, He was also accompaniied by very strange lights and objects in the sky, Sometime after 1972, the beast called MoMo (for Missouri Monster) ,like Puff the Magic Dragon, slipped sadly back into his cave. But his legend survives as the monster that time forgot. Moran, Mark & Scheurman, Mark. Weird US Barnes & Noble Books. Place, Marian (1978). Bigfoot All Over the Country. Dodd, Mead. pp. 130–32.
