So if scary bunnies aren’t your thing, how about Goatmen?
The story, which I have not been able to confirm, is that black goat farmer Oscar Washburn and his family near Denton, Texas were killed by the Klan in August of 1938. (Some set the date even earlier, which does suggest a certain lack of historical evidence.) From there you get the usual hauntings, abandoned cars, etc.
Here’s a mercifully brief video:
Of course, the Denton, Texas Goatman is not to be confused with the Maryland Goatman, who seems to be a Satyr-like half goat/half man creature carrying an axe.
“Hey, that sounds pretty unbelievable,” you say, “but is there a cheesy reality TV video with ominous music, various clip art, some BS theorizing, and random morons walking around in a forest at night to make the story more convincing?”
Why yes. Yes there is.
