New footage suggests there may be two Loch Ness monsters: ‘Not a coincidence’

Nessie, is that you — or your twin?

New footage of an unidentified hump in Scotland’s Loch Ness suggests that there might not be one, but possibly two long-necked creatures lurking in its depths, according to one dedicated monster hunter.

A video captured just days ago from a webcam at Airanloch Bed and Breakfast, on the loch’s north shore, showed a large wake moving south across the water, with what appeared to be a hump near the front.

It came soon after similar wakes were seen elsewhere on the water, which Nessie hunter Eoin O’Faodhagain maintained was “not a coincidence.”

“There are obviously two creatures taking up residence in this area of the loch at the moment,” O’Faodhagain said.

“Whether they are here all the time is another matter – more visual research will have to be carried out to answer this,” he said.

“But with two wakes in quick succession, it is reasonable to assume that these Nessies have a fondness for the area.”

O’Faodhagain, 60, who made both sightings, is a diehard believer in the Loch Ness monster, which has been mostly dismissed as a hoax.

O’Faodhagain frequently watches the Visit Inverness Loch Ness webcam from his home in County Donegal, Ireland.

He records his alleged sightings of the creature in the Official Loch Ness Monster Sightings Register, which currently boasts 1,157 logged Nessie sightings.

The latest glimpses, however, brought a new element into the decades-old debate over the monster’s existence.

“I immediately notice a highly disturbed wake coming in the direction of the webcam that looked very unusual,” O’Faodhagain said.

“There was a long object that looked bumpy on top of the water, moving through the loch with a strong wake against the current.

“In the middle of the object, a pale hump-like part of some creature can be seen rising up throughout the length of the video clip. I was so captivated by the sighting.”

Nessie is supposedly about eight- to 10-feet long on the surface, but has “more body, or strong finds underneath” in order to  “churn the water up with such force,” the Irishman suggested.

Over the years, scientists and other experts have mostly debunked supposed Nessie sightings as hoaxes, wishful thinking, or else sightings of known, mundane wildlife.

But the humped creature that allegedly caused the wakes O’Faodhagain saw could not be anything that is already known to reside inside the large loch, he claimed.

“What type of creature has a reddish-brown hump in the middle of a bumpy length of body, that can cause such disturbance and wake? It looked weird and strange, no resemblance to a seal or otter,” he reasoned.

“No duck or bird could cause a wake like that with so much water disturbance. It might be heading back to hybrid giant eel territory, but it didn’t move like an eel. I cannot really say it was like any known animal.”
