Hobbomock | The Sleeping Giant

The hills of Sleeping Giant State Park in southern Connecticut are a popular place for hiking and outdoor recreation, but they have a mythical past. The Quinnipiac people once believed that they were once a stone giant called Hobbomock, who felt betrayed and insulted by the creatures of the earth, and in his rage wrought havoc upon the land. The people had no chance against an angry giant, but with some immortal help, they could stop Hobbomock before he destroyed all of creation!
