QuoteA new photo and video footage have emerged purporting to show South Carolina's mythic swamp monster known as Lizard Man that was first spotted nearly 30 years ago.
Local legend has it that Lizard Man is 7-foot-tall reptilian creature that lives in the Scape Ore Swamp, not far from the small farming town of Bishopville.
Last Sunday, a Sumter woman named Sarah Berra says she was at church with a friend when she stepped outside and caught a glimpse of the fabled creature running along the tree line.
The woman grabbed her cell phone and snapped a picture of the apparition. The resulting image depicts a comically muscular upright humanoid with three clawed toes on each foot and clawed fingers.

I dunno if this is real or not cause the Matrix makes it real, and I don't wanna play in the matrix anymo. That's one handsome lizard, don't you agree.
he's buff
He comes 'round these parts, I'll have his head on my wall. Better be real or I'll be pizzed.
That's either a Guy in a Star Trek Gorn costume or a really bad choice for a ninja turtle costume.

Maybe he just needs to use your washroom...it might be a long stop over until the next gas station.

The Lizard Man legend dates back to 1988, when a 17-year-old was confronted at 2 a.m. by what he described as "green, wet-like, about seven feet tall" with "three fingers and glowing red eyes," according to a brief history of the creature by the Charleston City Paper. As evidence, the teen showed scratches on the roof of his car and a damaged mirror.

On Monday, June 22, 2009, Chris Davis will be laid to rest. Few involved in cryptozoology can forget the shy young man who would find himself in the limelight after he came forth to say, yes, he'd seen a bipedal reptilian creature in South Carolina.

Last Wednesday, June 17th, Davis, 37, was shot to death. Investigators say the killing was likely a home invasion. Deputies identified the gunmen as 19-year-old Lakiem Butler and 22-year-old Anogory Slater.
The local paper, The Item, noted that...
Christopher Davis was killed shortly before 11 p.m. in an incident at his home at 5230 DuBose Siding Road. Investigators say Davis was targeted in a drug-related incident.
In another story, the cause was clarified:
His killing...was drug-related. A narcotics officer recovered 10 grams of marijuana and two scales from the kitchen of his home, the sheriff said.
Because the investigation is still pending, he was unable to provide more information, except that a shotgun was used as the murder weapon and that Slater and Butler both had criminal records.
According to the police report, five other people were present at the time of the shooting. They were Davis' girlfriend, his brother, the brother's friend, Davis' 12-year-old daughter and his 14-year-old son, who witnessed the shooting. None was injured.
Christopher Davis, a Lee County native, recently moved to Sumter County, Lee County officials said. Davis became an international celebrity at the age of 16 when he reported the first sighting of the legendary Lizard Man of Lee County.
Former Lee County Sheriff Liston Truesdale told the media that "there would be no Lizard Man without Davis."

"In July 1988, Chris was the first witness interviewed as seeing the Lizard Man," Truesdale said. "And what impressed me was that he told the same story every time. And he had to tell the story over and over again to the media and others. If you're lying, you can't tell the same story twice."
Everybody wanted to hear the Lizard Man story from the eyewitness, Truesdale said.
Davis served as a grand marshal at a festival parade and signed T-shirts at a mall in Myrtle Beach, he said.
"At that time, he was super, nice kid," he said. "You know, I bet he told the story more than 100 times every week for several weeks."
Truesdale said he believes the media attention and publicity became too much for him.
"He could have made a mint from this," Truesdale said. "A lot of people don't know that he was scheduled to go to the Oprah (Winfrey) Show, but he canceled it. I think finally he just had enough."
Funeral services for Christopher Davis will be held at 1:00 p.m. Monday, June 22, 2009, at the New Haven United Methodist Church in Bishopville, South Carolina.

Loren Coleman's daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013.
That looks one scary creature if it proved real.
If so I wonder it a Lizard Man or reptilian ET ?

Lizard Man Emerges From South Carolina Swamp
'My hand to God, I am not making this up. So excited!'
A woman left a church in Bishopville, South Carolina, on Sunday, and was understandably startled at the sight of someone -- or some-THING -- running in front of some trees. The shock lasted long enough for her to get a grip on her senses -- as well as her phone -- to snap a picture of what looks like a fast-moving lizard man.
To be more precise, it looked like something you might see on the Syfy channel at 3 a.m., when you see the cheapest in science fiction theater.
In a skeptical world where people complain about how supposed photos of Bigfoot or Sasquatch are always blurry, the picture above seems to suggest that lizard-like creatures don't mind having their picture taken.
The woman who took the photograph -- identified only as Sarah from Sumter, South Carolina -- contacted ABC News 4 WCIV-TV in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina, about her "encounter."
"My hand to God, I am not making this up. So excited," she wrote to the station, explaining how she and a friend saw the lizard man near the Scape Ore Swamp (see red marker in the following map).
