Seton is a remote village somewhere in the northern part of Scotland. It’s not a particularly well known village, however its keen locals have always done their best to bring their village the fame and attention it deserves ( in their opinion).
Seton has historically always been a fishing village. However over the last few decades the trade of fish has suffered somewhat. Many believe that the blame for this drop in commerce lies with the so called “Seton Sea Monster”. This is a common defense used by local fishermen after an unsuccessful venture to sea.
Several sightings of the “Seton Sea Monster” have been reported over the years, the description of the beasts appearance taking several different forms. However there has never actually been any conclusive evidence.
As to whether the creature actually exists or not is a topic that has caused much debate. While several locals are adamant that they have seen the beast in the flesh, many feel the whole tale is an embarrassing joke, whilst others are simply happy to jump on the bandwagon in an attempt to make a small fortune through the sales of t-shirts and other tacky merchandise.
The people of Seton have an unusual rivalry with those from around Loch Ness and often can be overheard making snide or abusive comments against them.
Many are spiteful towards the Loch Ness Monster Situation. Some believe the whole thing to be a fabrication surrounding tourism, which in turn has a direct effect upon what their own village has to share with the world - which of course is the “Seton Sea Monster”, much like the Loch Ness Monster, but they believe it to be real!
Others believe that the whole myth surrounding Nessie was at its conception misinterpreted and is infact the same thing as the “Seton Sea Monster”, the location of sightings has simply been miscredited.
