Folklore Profile: The Lake Superior God of the Waters (AKA: The Great Lakes Merman)
It is believed that there are upwards of 6,000+ shipwrecks within the five lakes known as Superior, Huron, Michigan, Erie, and Ontario. Their beds have become the final resting place for an estimated 30,000+ mariners, many of which have never been recovered. The sheer number of souls that have been lost within these waters can easily get one thinking of the possibility that there may be something more going on within these lakes than originally thought.

Something, as crazy as it is to believe, like a Merman.
