Noted: In fact, the United States is filled with mythical monsters that are feared or revered by locals but remain largely unknown to most of the country. Inspired by the monster party described by Bobby Pickett in his song “Monster Mash,” cartographer Chelsea Nestel, a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, mapped the monsters of the United States. She filled each state’s territory with a depiction of its most fearsome or beloved mythical beast.
