About David Eller

David Eller’s journey began as a curious nine-year-old, captivated by a Reader’s Digest article on Bigfoot. That pivotal moment ignited a lifelong passion for uncovering the mysteries of the world.

With a background as an artist and storyteller, David combines creativity with meticulous research. His unique approach to cryptozoological studies has led to groundbreaking discoveries, such as the Pagoda, a braided tree structure uncovered in Tennessee in 2021. Over the years, David has investigated legends across North America, including auditory encounters in Canada and iconic sightings near Mt. St. Helens.

David’s work extends beyond field research. As an author, podcaster, and artist, he brings cryptids and the unexplained into focus, inspiring others to explore the edges of belief.
