Kinderhook is a quiet, picturesque community found in Columbia County, New York, typified by bubbling streams, thick forests and generational homes. But Kinderhook is much more than a small, rural town. In the 1980 author and radio broadcaster Bruce Hallenbeck and his family were witnesses to continual encounters with a strange, upright creature. The sightings became an international phenomenon, and even stranger, were but one of many odd events chronicled by Hallenbeck and others. The Kinderhook Creature is both a companion to Hallenbeck’s book The Kinderhook Creature and Beyond: A Personal Reminiscence, as well as a deeply moving examination the author's life - one packed with encounters that can only be described simply as “paranormal,” and lived in the shadow of The Kinderhook Creature.
