The boogy man can keep a lot of folks from monkying around an operating still. And hell yes they kept some stills in operation out there for many years after removal. Back in the 80's I used to worry, with good reason, about falling in storage pits. Found one or two of them myself way back up in the hills.

Of course, that might have been that strange set of tracks I found out there last february  :shck: Jimmie

Whoever stays with Jimbo better bring a thunder mug for him.  :wink:

Oh, I believe!

I also had one of those encounters, it was awful close too. This happened during last years hunt, not in Kentucky but in the southern section of the LBL, a motel room at the Dover Inn to be exact. It was late Saturday night, just around midnight. I was sleeping soundly in my bed when suddenly I was awakened by loud unworldly moans and hair-raising howls. These reverberations were not coming from the big woods nearby but only a few feet away in the bathroom. After several minutes of bellowing, the latrine door swung wide and out stepped the most wild eyed, scruffy headed creature you could ever imagine. Every horror story I had ever heard of was about to come true.  Bigfoot, Wolfman, Frankenstein and all their happy friends had stumbled into my dark room and were about to party. Suddenly, I became aware that my calling partner Bopeye, who was nested in a nearby bed, had not risen to the clatter. Regaining slight composure, barely enough to reach the light switch, I flipped on the bulb. To my relief, there was my ol' friend Bopeye standing there. I asked what was the matter. Having earlier dined on "Yankee BBQ", Bop, it seems had found this strange brew not quite to his intestinal liking. Now he was filling the night with wild howls, evil moans and foul, rancid odors. It was a horror !  :puke:


Still,  that artist's drawing looks just like what I remember seeing that night...
right before the lights came on at the Dover Inn.  :roflmao:

I'm not foolish enough to say such creatures can't exist out there somewhere. But when a single black bear moved through the area a few years ago it was seen on a regular basis by a fair number of people. It was seen coming from tennesse and returning to tennessee. It crossed at least four counties in it's travels. We're talking about something that is supposed to be a bit larger than a black bear and you don't hear of these sightings.

If such a creature was in the LBL it would definately be seen by somebody on a regular basis. Not even the cougars are getting by without leaving sign up there. Hard to find but you can find it if your looking for it. Everything leaves sign sometime , somewhere.

Anytime you check on mountain folklore here in the state, you hear all kinds of tales. Many passed down from our scotch -irish heritage. The folks in the LBL were no diferent. Many of them were also of scotch Irish decent.  And a heck of a lot of tales were told with th intent of keeping folks out. Haint tales are a big part of our heritage. Jimmie

What ever this thing is it sure provdies some interesting read and sounds somewhat like the Alligator Man in the Low Country of South Carolina that caused such a stir a few years back, being of Scotch- Irish decent myself I can see how stoeies like this can get started from some of the tales my Grandpa and Uncles used to tell. The part about the family that was killed and not getting in the news is kind of hard to swallow, what was the name of the family,surely they had family members that would like to know what happen to them? Very good stories, I have enjoyed reading them.cc

I know how those stories can seem true. Why the first time I stopped at the LBL two of the ugliest & gnarliest creatures approached me as I got outta my vehicle.  What was I to do? The guns were in the back.  Every Sneaky Leaf I had on my garments quivered. Lawdy, I was scaret.  Then in unison they both stretched forth an appendage to take ahold of me as they had so many other hapless creature.  About then one opened his mouth & I expected to hear the victory scream of a Banshee.  Made to deafen & immobilize their prey.  To late I was already immobile.  If anybody had asked me for a urine sample right then & there I coulda squirted 'em a quart only problem is they woulda had to get it themselves. I mean I was that immobile! Then in the next second  I heard "Hi, I'm Canine & this here is Straycat."  :whew:

After much reading and alot of internet research including reviewing post on several forums and including this one, I have come to the conclusion that zone 1 of LBL seems to be a place refuge for strange creatures to lurk and also contains a few spots that are favored by local hunters. There is apparently an old apple orchard that is frequented by many deer and predators ,also I have read that Bigfoot likes apples and gets very angry with people that steal the apples off his tree, and in retaliation he throws poop at them ! which in turn draws in the coyotes followed by the hapless coyote hunter. IMO the BEAST OF LBL is no more than local coyote hunters trying to keep FNFers out of this zone. They must think pretty highly of this area to think up such a tail as this and create such commotion for the past several years just to keep this area a secret. I my self am going to hunt this area during the famous FNF annual LBL get together and will not be intimitated by their actions, just because I'll be carrying an AR and hefty side arm doesnt mean im scared I just like being prepared for the worst. You never know what might happen.

The people that started this rumor should be ashamed of theirselves and should come forward and confess !!! we already know who you are.

Remember if you shoot a boogy man and plan to have it mounted, you'll want to do a dorsal cut when skinning it.

Then get that skin on ice. or salt it down.

"Mounting a booger" is one of those things that could just cost you a one time nominal fee or it could cost you a lifetime.  :innocentwhistle:
Be careful.......... :eyebrownod:
