TheFlatwoods Monster, also known as the Braxton County Monster or the Phantom of Flatwoods, is an alleged unidentified extraterrestrial or cryptid reported to have been sighted in the town of Flatwoods in Braxton County, West Virginia, United States, on September 12, 1952 by a group of locals.
Most descriptions agree that the creature was at least 7 feet (2.1 m)
tall, with a black body and a dark, glowing face. Witnesses also described
the creature’s head as elongated, shaped like a sideways diamond, and as
having non-human eyes; a large, circular cowling appeared behind the head. The creature’s body was inhumanly-shaped and clad in a dark
pleated exoskeleton. Some accounts record
that the creature appeared to have “no visible arms” due to its
incredible speed. Others reported long, stringy arms, protruding from
the front of its body, with long, claw-like fingers. A large, glowing red ball of light is associated with the creature, believed by some to be a craft that was piloted by the creature.
After encountering the creature, several members of the September 12
group reported suffering from similar symptoms, which persisted for some
time and which they attributed to having been exposed to the mist
emitted by the creature. The symptoms included irritation of the nose
and swelling of the throat.
If you want I’ll have more information about this cryptid in a later post. So, what do you think the Flatwoods Monster was, if it was a cryptid/alien at all?
I think one of the greatest realizations I ever made was that I didn’t have to choose between masculinity and femininity
The sooner you realise that you can do literally whatever you want as regards to your gender presentation (or lack thereof) and just take whatever bits and pieces you like from wherever, the sooner you can start enjoying life.
