Mythical Creatures: Loveland Frog By Aaron Johnson, Joel Anderson, 2022
- Mythical Creatures: Loveland Frog
In Ohio folklore, the Loveland Frog is a legendary amphibious creature, resembling a giant humanoid frog roughly four feet tall when standing on its hind legs. The creature has allegedly been spotted multiple times in Loveland, Ohio. Though there had been rumors of a local frogman spotted earlier in the 20th century, a 1972 incident involving an on-duty police officer reporting a sighting of the creature was certainly the most famous. This sighting furthered local interest in the beast. Sightings continued, with the most recent occurring in 2016. Inspired by the folklore stories and tall tales of mysterious creatures and mythical monsters that get passed down from generation to generation all across America, Anderson Design Group poster artists hand-rendered a vintage-styled poster of the Loveland Frog, an original depiction of what we think the creature might look like, available as a poster print, canvas, metal sign, mini-canvas, or as a notecard or postcard. This original illustration would make an excellent conversation piece. And to learn more about the Loveland Frog, check out this article by a local enthusiast in the Portal List.
