Monster Portrait circa 1850.

Not many people know this, but Henry David Thoreau had a secret admirer when he was staying at Walden pond. A monster living in the surrounding woods took an interest in the author/philosopher, but refused to introduce himself because he wanted to “Keep the Thoreau in his mind alive.”

This is the only surviving photograph of the monster. 

This might be my favorite thing ever
