Answer 2

Mentions of the loch ness monster go back a long way.

One of the first references is made in the story of St Columba in 565, who supposedly actually slayed the monster.

After 1933 there was renewed interest because a man called George Spicer and his wife claimed to have seen it. Then in 1934 the 'surgeon's photo' appeared, which appeared to show a good picture, though it was later proved to be a hoax.

It's a very deep and large lake, which is why it is such a romantic idea that it might hold a large monster.
