Chasing American Monsters: An Interview with Paranormal Researcher Jason Offutt

A few days ago I had the privilege of speaking to author and paranormal researcher Jason Offutt (Click the video above to listen to the full interview). Jason is the author of Chasing American Monsters, a book that details over 250 Creatures, Cryptids & Hairy Beasts. Among them The Black Dog of Hanging Hills, the Tommyknockers of Pennsylvania, the Banshee of the Badlands and hundreds of others.

Jason Offutt is also the author of What Lurks Beyond: The Paranormal in Your Backyard, which talks about his researching experiences in his own backyard, and Darkness Walks: The Shadow People Among Us, which outlines the more recent phenomenon of shadow people among us.

When he is not out researching the paranormal or writing a new book, Jason Offutt teaches journalism at Northwest Missouri State University in Maryville, including the ever-popular class “Paranormal journalism”. If you would like to know more about Jason, his books and appearances visit his website.
