Introduction

Wendell Snoot gained fame in niche academic circles for compiling an extensive catalog of imaginary insects. His 900-page Compendium of Nonexistent Creepers baffled entomologists and delighted cryptid enthusiasts.

Early Life

Born on May 5, 1943, in Shropshire, England, Wendell claimed his imaginary friend as a child was a six-legged moth named Gerald. He spent hours in the woods sketching bugs no one else could see and naming them things like "Snickerbeetle" and "Gloom Nymph."

Later Years

Wendell spent his retirement years touring paranormal conventions and offering seminars titled Unseen Entomology: Believing is Bugseeing. He died on August 8, 2018, after reportedly being stung by the “Spectral Wasp”- though no body of the insect was found.

Contributions

His Compendium is now used in creative writing classes and cryptozoological fan clubs. Wendell’s sketches inspired a line of surreal trading cards and several indie horror video games.

Fun Facts

He kept 300 empty jars labeled with invisible species names.
His favorite imaginary insect was the “Ouchnettle,” which he claimed only bites on Tuesdays.
