...In other news, Autumn Lands has been chosen as the site of CRYPTIDPALOOZA, America's #1 Cryptid Convention, hosting dozens of beings whose existence is disputed by science!

This year's host being, the Jersey Devil (or "J.D." to their friends), has made the controversial decision to open the event to mundane humans, leading to a record number of cryptozoologists signing up for the event. "Our theme this year", announced J.D., "is _Explore the Unknown_. What could be more unknown than the humans next door?"

J. D. also admitted that the rumors of cryptid disappearances are true. "We are asking for your help finding our fellow entities and invite everyone to join us in the Autumn Lands to solve this mystery." Subscribe, Like, and Follow for further updates.
