2. Pope Lick Monster
Pope Lick Monster is a creepy legend about a part-man, part-goat and part-sheep creature that is believed to live beneath a Norfolk Southern Railway trestle over Pop Lick Creek in Louisville, Kentucky. Mostly, the Pope Lick Monster appears as a human-goat hybrid with a grotesquely deformed body of a man. It has powerful, fur-covered goat legs, an alabaster-skinned face with an aquiline nose and wide set eyes. Short, sharp horns protrude from the forehead, nestled in long greasy hair that matched the color of the fur on the legs.
Numerous urban legends exist about the creature’s origins and the methods it employs to claim its victims. In the late 1800, there were rumors of wild animal roaming the Canadian wilderness. Locals called it the Pope Lick Monster. Stories about the creature caught the attention of a circus owner. He captured th monster and began to exhibit in his circus freak show. He travelled by train from town to town and the monster was one of his star attractions. But, he mistreated the monster and it grew t hate to human. One dat, the monster escaped after a train derailed on the trestle. Since that time, people say the monster lives up on the Trestle at Pope Lick Creek and lures people to their doom.
