A mythical
cryptid creature depicted in traditional German folklore.Described by Lutherian monks as “extremely grotesque in figure with rodent and goblin like qualities”. The
tiddle is known to roam the pine woods of Germany and has been spotted on multiple occasions, the most notable case in
1925 when it was supposedly shot dead by a German farmer (ended up being a hoax in order to gain money during the German
Great Depression). The tiddle is said to have lured children by small German villages by enchanting them with asweet German dessert known as Karamellscheibe. In
1895 there was a strange and mysterious case of a young 8 year old girl vanishing and never being seen again, with reports of a squealing like disturbance in the local forest. The mystery of the tiddle is a strange tale with its last known sighting being in a swampy lowland near
dusseldorf in July 2018 by French hikers who claim the squealing\screeching sound was uniquely profound and caused their ear drums to rupture
Cologne folklore song from the 1600s:
tiddle tiddle versteck deine
Kinder im
Wald versteck deine Kinder im Sumpf!
