The Beast of Bray Road

The Beast of Bray Road

The first sighing of the beast of bray road was back in 1936. But the majority of sightings were in the 80s and 90's. These sightings have been mostly in Elkhorn, Wisconsin.. And they happened on a rural farm road Bray Road. Thus the name. 

The most popular sighting was from Lori Endrizzi, who reported that she was driving down Bray Road and saw the back of an animal on the side of the road. As she got closer she could see that the beast was clutching road kill and eating it. As her headlights hit the beast it looked up at her and she said it was dark brown with red glaring eyes and pointed ears. she estimated it was about 5'7 and weighted about 150 pounds. 

Another woman, Doris Gipson was driving down Bray Rd and thought she hit an animal. She stopped to see what she hit and saw this creature running towards her so she ran back to her car quickly and the creature lifted the back or her car. She hit the gas and gunned it down the road. Doris claimed to see the creature one more time when she was with a friend driving down Bray Road again. When she got home she found claw marks on the back of her car.  

Another man named Mark claimed to see this creature in a graveyard. He claims to have gone back to the sight again and saw the creature again. He said the creature had black hair and smelled like dead meat. 

Another man named Scott who was with a group of friends reported they saw the beast near Fort Atkinson. They claimed to have hit an animal and got out of the car. The friends got out of the car and found a smelly large animal that they did not recognize. They let the police know. The police said they got another call also that there was a huge animal, possibly a black bear laying dead on the side of the road, although police that went out there didn't find anything. Again Tom had future sightings too of this animal or creature saying it had dog like legs and face but stood on two feet. 

The creature did not seem scared by humans by all the witness accounts. And an odd thing is that many eyewitnesses have seen the creature more than once. 

 Linda Godfrey  local newspaper reporter from the Walworth County Week, covered the story at first skeptically but after interviewing many of the witnesses she started to change her mind. They all seemed credible. She eventually turned her articles into a book titled The Beast of Bray Road: Tailing Wisconsin's Werewolf.

A couple or the witnesses say that they had encounters on the rural road with it either being on the side of the road eating a dead animal or another woman who thought she hit the beast and pulled over to see what it was, but it chased her back to her car and scratched her back door leaving  long scratch marks.

Believers have different theories on what this creature is. Some believe it is a Bigfoot, some a werewolf or dog man and others think possibly an interdimensional being since it keeps reappearing in the same area at random times years apart. 

Skeptics believe people are just misidentifying wolves or black bears, although both are rare in this part of Wisconsin. Others claim is may be a wolf or bear with mange which would give it a strange scary appearance. 

There are many books, documentaries and movies about The Beast of Bray Road which I'll link down below.

My UFO Sightings

I am just saying, these are the weird unexplained lights I have witnessed in the sky. Sighting 1 I taped this video at about 3am in the skies above Genoa City, Wisconsin. It was July 22, 2012. I went outside to walk my dog who was sick with pancreatic,  and saw this flashing light in the sky that looked like it was coming closer then getting farther. I went and got a friend to come out and watch it with me and this is what we caught on video camera and in pictures. We noticed other lights in the sky too that didn't make sense.
