Rhode Island folklore is filled with stories about cryptids, a mysterious creature that residents have claimed to see but whose existence has never been proven.
Reports of the legendary, fire-breathing Glocester Ghoul were first documented in 1833 by Albert Hicks, a notorious pirate who was searching for Capt. Kidd’s lost treasure.
Some believe the beast was a hellhound sent to guard Kidd’s treasure. Others said it was only a bear wandering through the woods.
