[Sue]

News reports are coming in about the latest sightings in Washington County of an unusual 200-pound creature.

Described as appearing "Evil" with the basic shape of a bear and the head of a wolf, it has been sighted twice in the wooded area near Holy Hill, which is about 6 miles from the rally site.

News Report



Man -- I just LOVE THIS STUFF!

In one of my books at home (Weird Wisconsin) it describes a similiar sounding creature in Walworth County, which is about 50 miles south of West Bend.

I wish I had a sound-byte from "The Twilight Zone".

Hodag?

Perhaps too much Wurst or hitting the Christmas spirits too soon?

IÔÇÖve seen that thing! I had gotten a late start and was just getting to my motel in Jackson about 11:00pm. I was paying extra attention to the ditches as I always do on the bike after dark. I slowed up when I caught the reflection of what I thought were deer eyes. I was doing about 30 mph when I got by it and realized it wasnÔÇÖt a deer. It was upright like human but like the article said the ears were pointed and on the top of its head.
IÔÇÖm glad IÔÇÖm not camping at the rally!

You should listen to your wife about what to wear when you leave the house, man. We could prevent this kind of hysteria if you'd wear a hat.



who loves ya, brutha?

Mud Lake Monster

What's next? The Mud Lake Monster?
That small body of water is about a half hour away from the rally site.

Camp Minikani, a YMCA camp, is on that lake!

This is marvelous. I plan on camping next July and bringing my teenage son and the rumors of midnight monsters is going to wreak havoc on him.

Somebody better shoot this thing fast.

I heard that the teenagers are planning a "lock-in" in the Rally "teen center." Can you imagine the cool horror stories they are going to be able to tell?

Hodag?

I think it must have been the wily Hodag. Even when he tells you that he'll be somewhere, you can rarely find him. He said he would be at Oktoberfest this year, but no one was able to find him. Unless you've got a deer draped over your fender, he won't come out.

Here he is. In a rare sighting, as he searches for deer among the BMWs.

 

[The_Veg]

Yeah I kinda thought it was Mark.

 

[HODAG]

Here is a rumor, I think Hodag is making brats for the Rally attendees. How many deer does it take to fed 9000 plus ?

maybe for charging station volunteers.....

 

[BRADFORDBENN]

I heard it was just Hodag out marking out where the Party Palace is going !!!

"Werewolf"

It is true! I saw the creature at the Dells Rally last year and was able to snap a picture of it while accelerating away from it. I'm getting a room at a Brick walled motel for the Rally next year..

Any speculation as to which sex it is? If it is a female, it could ride pillion with me to the Harley plant tour.

Manbat sightings also

if the wolf bear creature wasn't enough we now have a manbat flying around the state...

Imagine driving down a dark country road and having the above, man-sized creature fly at your windshield, stare in at you and then swoop upwards into the night sky. This actually happened to a 53-year old LaCrosse man who prefers to be known only by his Cherokee name, Wohali, and the man's 25-year old son. Their reaction? Immediate illness. In seconds, both became physically ill, and the son, who was driving, swerved and then pulled the truck over into the ditch so he could vomit. The son, who wishes his identity kept private, vomited six or seven times. Wohali retched, as well, and both remained sick for an entire week. The son was so frightened by the encounter that he refuses to discuss it. But Wohali told me he feels it's important for people to "know what is out there," and wants the story to be told.

This sighting happened Tuesday, Sept. 26, on Briggs Road near LaCrosse between 9:15 and 9:30 pm. The creature almost flew into their windshield, was an estimated 6-7 feet tall, sported batlike, leathery wings with a span of 10-12 feet, long claws on its feet and "hands" and a snarling expression on the face. They both somehow felt it was angry it had been seen.

"When we turned onto Briggs Road," wrote Wohali in his hand-written account, "our little 4-wheel drive truck's headlights caught (in mid-air) a bat-like, man-like creature (we almost smacked it with our windshield) that was six or seven feet tall with abouta ten or twelve foot wingspan."

The large muzzle featured rows of sharp teeth, and the creature "screamed" at them before sailing straight up into the air. The encounter made both men physically ill, sick to their stomachs and vomiting the rest of the night. Wohali stated that he did not know whether the creature had been on the road and then bounced up at them, or if it had been flying at the time it came at their car. He was sure the thing was a physical, actual creature, he said, but like nothing he had ever seen before.

I think that in the name of tourism promotion, the locals need to fess up what the effective beast repellent is:

beer breath?

I think the beer breath might be what's causing the sightings.
