The Beast of Bray Road
A rural Wisconsin road became the center of dozens of real, independently filed sighting reports of a bipedal, wolf-like creature in the late 1980s and 1990s — enough that a local newspaper reporter's investigation turned into a bestselling book.
The Beast of Bray Road is a reported bipedal, wolf-like or dog-like creature associated with rural roads near Elkhorn, Wisconsin, with numerous independent sighting reports concentrated particularly in the late 1980s and 1990s. Local journalist Linda Godfrey's investigation into the sightings, beginning with newspaper reporting, developed into an extensively documented case study and later a bestselling book examining the phenomenon.

Quick facts
- →Sighting reports concentrated around Bray Road near Elkhorn, Wisconsin, with a particularly significant cluster occurring in the late 1980s and throughout the 1990s.
- →Witnesses generally described a large, bipedal creature with wolf-like or canine features, distinct from typical accounts of a normal four-legged wolf or dog.
- →Local newspaper reporter Linda Godfrey began investigating and documenting the sighting reports for the Walworth County Week, later expanding her research into an extensively documented book on the phenomenon.
