Bigfoot on display in downtown Portland | NECN.

(NECN: Amy Sinclair, Portland, Maine) – It’s been quite a while since the last good Bigfoot sighting. But a number of credible sources, including NECN’s Amy Sinclair are absolutely certain they saw one today on a downtown street in Portland, Maine.

So, what was Sasquatch doing on Congress Street?

The neighbors are up to their usual Halloween tricks. But they pale in comparison to what’s inside Loren Coleman’s house.

His home in Portland, Maine is filled with bizarre animals—snaggle-tooth monster heads, mermaids under glass, rabbits with antlers.

“These are important crypto-zoological artifacts.”

Cryptozoology?

Loren: “Cryptozoology is the study of hidden or unknown animals as yet unverified by science.”

This morning, Coleman’s whole creepy collection is being herded out the door by a team of movers.

There goes the pterodactyl. Before you dismiss Coleman as a quack, he’s authored 30 books about animal mysteries…he’s the go to guy for TV shows like “Unsolved Mysteries.”

Coleman: “Everybody says I’m the greatest living cryptozoologist and I say well, at least I’m living ha ha gotta have a sense of humor.”

Now, the whole world will be able to see what, until now, has been lurking in his living room.

50 years worth of artifacts will be on display in his new museum on Congress Street.

Assuming of course, the movers can get Bigfoot here through the front door.

As you might imagine the spectacle turned a few heads as four men muscled the horizontal hairy beast into his new habitat.

Coleman freely admits that about 80 percent of his investigations are dead ends. Mistaken identities or hoaxes.

Coleman: “But it’s that 20 percent, that 20 percent of leftover unknowns that really interest me because it leads to the verification of new animals.”

His museum will feature both the phony and the plausible, seeking to educate and entertain.

This Bigfoot for the record, is not real it was made by a taxidermist in Wisconsin who wanted to see what Bigfoot might have looked like. It’s made of musk oxen and buffalo hair.

If the movers are any indication, his new museum will attract a following.

Mover: “I’ve actually always believed in Bigfoot. This is a cool opportunity.

An opportunity to get up close and personal with mysterious monsters, go ahead he won’t bite.
