The Crypto Files - Beast Of Bray Road (Ep29)

Welcome to episode 29 of The Crypto Files. In this episode, we take a look at the Beast of Bray Road.
The Beast of Bray Road is also sometimes called the Wisconsin Werewolf. It has been described in various ways from bigfoot to a surviving prehistoric wolf of some sort.

Similar sightings were also reported in other states. Many claim it is a known animal that is just being misidentified. But the description from eyewitnesses seems to be of something very uncommon.

Check out this short video to learn more about The Beast Of Bray Road.

I got the following report in a couple days ago and wanted to share it. It is an interesting report of an unknown object in the evening sky.

Here is the report.

-Start Report-

Name: Christine *******

Email Address: On file

State: WI

County: Waushara

Date of Sighting: Nov 17 2004

Time of Day: approx 7:15pm

Nearest Town: Borth...actual sighting in Borth

Length of Sighting: approx 1 min

How many Witnesses: just myself

Any Photos/Videos: no

Describe sighting in detail:
We have a 5 acre horse farm in a very small unincorporated town. That evening I had gone out to feed the horses. I didn't turn on the barn isle lights that night because the moonlight was shining bright at the end and provided me with enough light to make my way. I went down the isle and stopped to cut open a bale of hay. I grabbed about half of it putting it on my right shoulder and walked out the doorway of the isle. I walked towards the left and was about to toss the hay over the fence when I realized I could hear the horses eating (my husband had fed them before he left for a meeting, not telling me he had) So I turned to my right to go back into the barn, I was looking down at first watching my step as it was dark and I hadn't turned the lights on. As I came almost full around to my right I caught the lights out of the corner of my eye.
I stopped walking and turned my head, then my body and took several steps forward looking at these lights trying to comprehend what I was seeing. I got to the other fence line and had to stop walking, still with the hay on my shoulder. It took a few seconds for me to think...no way, it cant be...I was looking at these orangeish balls of light that at first appeared to be in a straight line, with 2 additional balls of light slightly smaller and to the upper left of the others in the line...the lights had a pulse to them..or movement..its hard to describe...if you've ever seen that sort of heat vapor the rises off hot black top, that's the closest way to describe the movement in the lights..and orange ish is the best color choice, it wasn't like any color orange I have seen though.

This is where it got super weird for me...I spoke out loud to myself in just above a whisper...I said..WTF is that..and no sooner did the words leave my mouth those lights started to go out one by one in rapid succession from right to left...that's when I realized it was circular shape and not a straight line. I could see as it came around from the backside right. I'm going to guess it was a couple hundred yards away and maybe 30 to 40 off the ground..the length of the lights was about 7-8 inches in my line of sight..my son tells me that mathematically that many inches in my sight would either make it very large and far away or smaller and very close by...I will go with the close by as it absolutely heard me speak to myself in just above a whisper tone. I dropped the hay on the ground and took off running back up the isle and into the house.

My 15 yr old daughter was the only other person home at the time. I was stumbling over my words trying to tell her what had just happened. I grabbed a piece of paper and drew out the shape of the lights..she looked at me and said holy sh*t that's exactly what I saw...she and a friend had told me back in Sept that they had seen a UFO in the field behind our barn in broad daylight..I thought they were just pulling my leg and I teased them all night about it. Apparently they were telling the truth.

-End Report-

I have emailed to Christine in hopes of obtaining the sketch she made. If I can acquire it , I will update this post.
A special thanks to Christine for submitting her sighting to us.

Bray Road - Photo Credit: Google Maps
Beast of Bray Road

Beast of Bray Road - The Beast of Bray Road (or the Bray Road Beast) is a cryptid, or cryptozoological, creature first reported in the 1949 on a rural road outside of Elkhorn, Wisconsin. The same label has been applied well beyond the initial location, to any unknown creature from southern Wisconsin or northern Illinois and all the way to Vancouver Island, Canada, that is described as having similar characteristics to those reported in the initial set of sightings.

Bray Road itself is a quiet country road near the community of Elkhorn. The rash of claimed sightings in the late 1980s and early 1990s prompted a local newspaper, the Walworth County Week, to assign reporter Linda Godfrey to cover the story. Godfrey initially was skeptical, but later became convinced of the sincerity of the witnesses. Her series of articles later became a book titled The Beast of Bray Road: Trailing Wisconsin's Werewolf .
The Beast of Bray Road is described by purported witnesses in several ways: as a bear-like creature, as a hairy biped resembling Bigfoot, and as an unusually large (2–4 feet tall on all fours, 7 feet tall standing up) intelligent wolf-like creature apt to walk on its hind legs and weighing 400-700 pounds. It also said that its fur is a brown gray color resembling a dog or bear.

Dog-Like Bigfoot Or Something Else?
The Werewolves Of Wisconsin 

By TCC Team Member Dorraine Fisher 

Dogman.Bigfoot or Something else
 

            Is Wisconsin a hotbed for werewolf sightings? Or maybe dog-like bigfoot? When several witnesses describe similar creatures seen in the same area, one has to wonder.  A review of some historic “werewolf’ sightings in that state give some frightening details.

            In 1936, Mark Shcackelman was driving one evening in southeastern Wisconsin when he saw a figure digging in an Indian mound. He claims to have seen a creature covered in hair, and well over six feet tall with both dog-like and ape-like features. He described it as having pointed, erect ears. But he gave an interesting detail: He said the creatures hands had shriveled thumbs and forefingers along with three fully formed fingers.

            Schackelman returned to the area the next evening only to see the creature again. He said it was was making “neo-human” sounds described as three syllable growling. Little did he know that there would be reports of similar creatures in other parts of the state in later years.

            In an evening in 1991, also in southeastern Wisconsin, an unnamed woman felt a bump in the road like she’d hit something large. She stopped her car and got out to check the damages and looked off into the distance only to see a dark, hairy creature with a muscular chest running towards her. In a panic, she got back into her car and tried to get away when she claims the creature jumped onto her trunk. As she sped away, the creature finally fell off as she said the trunk was too wet for the creature to keep a grip. She returned to the scene later with a friend only to see a large, dark form rising from the side of the road.

            In 1989, Lorianne Endrizzi was driving just a half mile from the scene of the above encounter when she thought she saw someone kneeling on his haunches on the side of the road. She slowed down to get a better look and the creature stared back at her from no more than six feet across the width of her car. It had grayish-brown hair, fangs, and pointed ears.

            “His face was long and had a snout like a wolf,” she told a local reporter. 'The arms were really a kind of strange; jointed like a man or woman would be," she explained. "He was holding his hands with his palms upward. The arms were muscular 'like a man who had worked out a little bit." She went on to describe a creature with red-glowing eyes with its back legs behind it like it was kneeling. She had no idea what the creature might be until she later saw a werewolf in a book in the local library.  The sighting only lasted maybe 45 seconds. 

            Near this same time in the same area, Scott Bray, a local dairy farmer claimed to have seen a “strange-looking dog” beside his pasture. He said it was much larger than a German Shepherd, had a hairy tail, and pointed ears, with grayish-black wiry hair. He said the creature had a massive, strong-looking chest. He claimed he found enormous footprints in the dirt near the area which were four to five inches in diameter.

            Whatever these creatures were described by these witnesses, it certainly points to the idea that “werewolves” may have roamed the areas of southern Wisconsin for many years.******DF

9 Days of odd "booms" in Clintonville,Wis have been awaking residents.
The "Boom" was finally recorded.
It was March 24 -- just before 4 a.m. -- when Brian Sullivan finally heard what he had been waiting days for.
"I pointed the microphone at Olin Park; it's the lowest area in the city," Sullivan explained. He recored the "boom"
So it seem these odd sounds and strange booming are continuing around the world.
Thanks

Interstate 90
Seeing a sasquatch can sometimes bring unwanted attention and ridicule from others, so it is understandable that they want to keep their name private.
Here is the story of the sighting that took place last weekend.
Paul (not his real name) and his wife who are from IL were on their way back home after looking at a house to maybe purchase in MN. Paul who is a believer in bigfoot has been trying to convince his wife
to accept the facts about it but in his words "its has been a hard row to hoe".
His wife was driving them back home that night after the visit to see the house and they were heading south on Interstate 90 in WI just north (about 3 miles) of Wisconsin Dells.
Paul says:  "Well she was driving and it was dark out at this point, and we were in the middle of a conversation about the house we had just put an offer on earlier that day. On this HWY there are a bunch of "turn around" spots where the police sit to try and catch speeders, and since we have traveled this route many times, we know where they are and we automatically look down them. Well, mid conversation she stops talking, does a double take out the window, looks straight ahead for about twenty seconds in silence, and then looks at me and says, "Well, I think I just saw Bigfoot". "

Apparently this this was very big as well.
Paul continues to tell the story by saying: "All she kept saying was how BIG this thing was. She kept using the word BIG, and she instantly said it had to be at least 9 to 10 feet tall and just BIG (as in the wide).  
Paul's wife describes the creature: "it was a dark brown color, and that I clearly saw two legs and two arms on this huge being."
Paul goes on to say: "We were still three hours from our house, and we didn't stop talking about it at all. We were going 70 mph on the hwy, but she was certain of what she saw. Now, she won't admit it was a bigfoot to me, but she can not for the life of her come up with what it could have been other than one."
Paul continues : "My wife wanted to turn around and go back even after we were two hours south of the location. Just from her reaction I know she saw one. I have been researching them for about three solid years, I truly wish it would have been me that saw it, and honestly my wife now wishes it didn't happen because she can't wrap her mind around it.  I wanted to share this awesome thing with you!"
We are So Glad you did "Paul", we think maybe that "hard row to hoe" just got a little easier for you.
If you end up buying the house and travel that stretch of road again make sure to keep your eyes open and a camera ready and of course keep us updated on any new developments. 
Thanks
