The mental image in my head of Mike accidentally being a cryptid is so funny to me because like take into consideration that Mike is generally right about supernatural stuff and add onto it his oblivious and a lack of knowledge it's so funny.
Like a 7-year-old Mike telling the story of a superhero named Jane to attentive listeners riddled with warnings that can only make sense in hindsight (like: stray away from the old house or one of thee may perish). Jane who escaped from a lab. Jane who has a brother bound by fate and destiny. Jane who eventually learns to live a normal life and become a regular girl.
Then he tells the parallel story of Jane's brother, William or Liam maybe. He talks about a boy he struggles to survive a week in a nightmare. Brave and kind Liam who struggles to believe that people care about him, who finds a sister in Jane because they've been through so much.
The kicker is no one knows until they find a video of him recounting a story that suspiciously mirrors their current lives and the thing is Mike is so much older now that he can only vaguely recall what he was talking about.
