A Pennsylvania community that has embraced Bigfoot in recent years has doubled down on its devotion to the creature with a planned park bearing its name. According to a press release, the town of Derry Borough recently received a nearly $29,000 state grant to "transform a vacant downtown lot into an accessible public space" for "community events, pedestrian activity, and local tourism." Central to the park will be an eight-foot-tall Bigfoot statue that was commissioned by the community in 2024 after the town named the legendary creature its official cryptid as part of a larger effort to celebrate the region's history of Sasquatch sightings.
