From the dawn of time monsters have haunted this world. Many think them no more than legends lost in the mists of prehistoric myth. Yet some still walk the Earth existing like half-remembered nightmares from ages long gone by...

Famous photo of Scotland's 'Nessie'
Loch Ness Monster
The Loch Ness Monster has been seen, recorded, photographed and hunted by researchers for generations. Is it a big fish, an ancient whale, a giant ell or a donospars that refused to die?
No one knows for sure, but something's there and it's more than a piece of driftwood spotted by someone with too much to drink at the local pub. Recently, experts agree the best photo ever was captured on film. The picture of the beast was deemed authentic and appeared all over the world: New Loch Ness photo deemed best ever.

Another investigation delves into one of the reported species that natives in the are call the Yacumama: The legendary Yacumama, mysterious monster of the Amazon.

Living dinosaurs and giant monster spiders
Like Loch Ness, living dinosaurs have been reported by eyewitnesses for many years. Many of the reports come from Southeast Asia and central Afica. The Congo, Papua New Guinea and Indonesia are three areas rife with dinosaur reports. Many of the incidents do not make the world press, but researchers have been making expeditions to haunt the beasts down. Recently, a dinosaur was chased by police: Live dinosaur hunted by police on volcanic island. Videos were taken of a creature said to be a living pterodactyl: Two dinosaur species in Papua New Guinea [with videos].
