I am doing research to support a LARP I am workingon with sylvan. What I am looking for are books and websites that have information on mythological creatures from North America and Central America.

Thanks!

So, here is something on the Wendigo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wendigo and some info on Big Foot or Chiye-tanka: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiye-tanka

I will see what I can find in my library...I know I used to have a couple of myth books from the Native Tribes in the Western States.

Chupacabra
There's a restaurant on Phinney Ridge in Seattle called Chupacabra. They make amazing margaritas. I think you should go there for research.

If the margaritas are really good, we all should go for research.

This sounds like a fine plan to me!
