I am Dana Holyfield, grand-daughter to Harlan Ford, the original Louisiana Honey Island Swamp Monster hunter. He appeared on the Leonard Nimoy TV show called, "In Search Of" in the 70s to talk about his encounter. He also poured plaster casting of tracks found in the area where he first came face to face with this horrid beast. The most fascinating evidence was later discovered in Ford's belongings on an 8mm film reel while I was making my documentary film. The footage has been studied by credible cryptozoologists who believe it is authentic that shows the creature walking upright through the swamp. This short, but very informative book was originally published in1999. It has since been revised with new encounters that were discovered over the years while making my documentary film, "Encounters with the Honey Island Swamp Monster." This book is available as an eBook and paperback and a hardcover. It has drawings and photographs in the stories. I hope you enjoy my book.
