In the fall of 1903, the small town of Van Meter, Iowa, was shaken by a bizarre and terrifying encounter. Over several nights, multiple residents claimed to witness a strange winged creature—part bat, part man—with a glowing horn on its head and wings that spanned the night sky. Guns had no effect on it, fear spread like wildfire, and by the end of the week, the beast vanished into the depths of an abandoned mine, never to be seen again. Was it a cryptid, a supernatural omen, or something not of this world? In this episode, we dive deep into the accounts from that eerie week, exploring the original newspaper clippings, eyewitness testimonies, and the theories that have emerged in the century since. Is the Van Meter Visitor a forgotten piece of folklore—or does something still lurk in the old mines outside town?

A real life dragon in Iowa. Yes you read that correctly. The Van Meter Monster is a cryptid from the small town of Van Meter, Iowa, first reported in 1903. Over the course of several nights, multiple respected townspeople, including a banker and a doctor, claimed to see a large, winged creature with a glowing horn on its head. Described as half-human, half-bat and seemingly impervious to bullets, the monster left locals terrified. The creature was last seen retreating into an abandoned coal mine, where it disappeared, sparking rumors of its otherworldly origins. To this day, the Van Meter Monster remains an enduring part of Iowa folklore, attracting interest from cryptozoologists and paranormal enthusiasts. What does it all mean?

In the Book of the Apocalypse, there are accounts given by the Apostle John of all kinds of hideous creatures that would appear in the skies during the final dispensational transition. One bizarre case of an entity not quite like anything else comes from the year 1903 when a bat-winged, glowing-horned creature that emitted a sulphur-like odor, terrorized the rural and small town of Van Meter, Iowa over several days. The Van Meter Visitor exhibited unearthly traits and could be placed in the ultra terrestrial category much like Mothman and Pazuzu due to its seemingly paraphysical nature. Do demonic flying entities like these periodically come up from the underworld during times of strife and chaos?

In the Fall of 1903, the small town of Van Meter, Iowa was visited by a strange creature that had no business being there. Over the course of several days, well-respected residents of Van Meter saw a giant flying creature with a horrible, uncanny smell, and a light glowing from a horn atop its dinosauric head. This pterodactyl-like being has come to be known as the Van Meter Visitor. For a week it haunted the town, until it was eventually hunted down to a coal mine shaft alongside it's child, never to be seen again. This episode from cryptid history was largely lost for about a century until some intrepid reporters brought the story back to life after reading articles from the surrounding newspapers of the time. But what really happened in Van Meter in 1903? Was this really a monster, or was it a hoax or maybe even an example of mass hysteria? On this episode of Mythic Existence, we'll get to the bottom of the legend of the Van Meter Visitor.

Story One – The Dover DemonAmerica's north-eastern states are a vast region of rolling woodland and mountain ranges, which are allegedly home to countless cryptids, which seem able to traverse the unsettled areas of these states largely undetected. In April of 1977, the inhabitants of one small town in rural Massachusetts would catch an unwanted glimpse of one such creature. Join us as we investigate the legend of the Dover Demon.Story Two – The Van Meter VisitorDuring the Autumn of 1903, numerous inhabitants of one Iowan city were subjected to a series of terrifying encounters with a mysterious winged intruder. Over a century later, both the origins and ultimate fate of this enigmatic creature continue to remain shrouded in mystery. In this story, we examine the bewildering encounters with The Van Meter Visitor.MUSIC Tracks used by kind permission of Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0Tracks used by kind permission of CO.AGSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In the Book of the Apocalypse, there are accounts given by the Apostle John of all kinds of hideous creatures that would appear in the skies during the final dispensational transition. One bizarre case of an entity not quite like anything else comes from the year 1903 when a bat-winged, glowing-horned creature that emitted a sulphur-like odor, terrorized the rural and small town of Van Meter, Iowa over several days. The Van Meter Visitor exhibited unearthly traits and could be placed in the ultra terrestrial category much like Mothman and Pazuzu due to its seemingly paraphysical nature. Do demonic flying entities like these periodically come up from the underworld during times of strife and chaos?

What was this supernatural creature people were seeing? *** A bride-to-be becomes worried when her fiance disappears – so she contacts a psychic friend to see if she can help. *** Something sinister creeps into a Christian boarding house. *** Bram Stoker wrote his classic novel “Dracula” in 1897… but vampires are much, much older than that. *** A supposedly cursed doll has remained in the protection of one family for over four generations. But why would this family keep hold of such a demonic item? *** They are almost always silent, enigmatic figures usually seen at a distance up on ridges silhouetted against the darkening twilight sky, always at around dusk or dawn, quietly looking over and surveying their domain with unknowable purpose and often vanishing in the blink of an eye. What are the dark watchers of California? *** The Zozo demon has allegedly harassed hundreds via their Ouija boards.
