Will Jenks - Founder

Will Jenks, cryptozoologist and founder of NationalCryptid.com, has spent more than 25 years researching the unexplained and exploring the mysteries that exist just beyond the edges of what we think we know. His journey into the unknown began in the field of paranormal investigation, where he spent decades as a ghost hunter investigating haunted locations, historic sites, and reported supernatural activity across the United States. Over the years, Will worked with multiple investigative teams, helping to document and analyze countless cases involving unexplained phenomena.

In 2018, Will experienced a life-changing moment that forever altered the direction of his research. During a personal encounter with what he believes was Bigfoot, he witnessed something that challenged everything he thought he understood about the world. That experience sparked a deep passion for cryptozoology and led him to dedicate his work to studying legendary and unexplained creatures reported throughout North America and beyond.

Today, Will continues to investigate cryptid sightings, analyze evidence, and collaborate with researchers and investigators across the country. He has worked with several investigative teams and is frequently consulted on cases involving unexplained creature sightings and paranormal activity. In addition to his field work, Will regularly speaks at conferences, paranormal conventions, and special events throughout the United States, sharing his experiences, research, and insights with audiences who share a fascination with the unknown.

Through NationalCryptid.com, Will hopes to create a hub for researchers, witnesses, and curious minds alike—bringing together credible information, investigation reports, and discussions about the creatures and mysteries that continue to captivate people around the world. His mission is simple: to search for the truth, wherever that search may lead.
