Monster Month Day 14 - Grafton Monster

Headless, huge and a fan of whistling, the Grafton Monster is an inscrutable snow white cryptid built like a brick shit-house.

June 16, 1964

11:00 PM — Grafton, West Virginia

Robert Cockrell (19), a *Grafton Sentinel* reporter, leaves work and heads home. It is a quiet Tuesday night as he travels along Riverside Drive (Route 119) near the Tygart River. Suddenly, something catches his eye. There, on the right side of the road, stands a massive, 7–9-foot-tall, 4-foot-wide bipedal creature. The behemoth is covered in smooth, oily, white skin and has no discernible head. Cockrell, now terrified, races home and locks himself inside. However, his journalistic instincts soon override his fear, and he returns to the scene with friends, Jerry Morse and Jim Mouser. While their investigation uncovers only some trampled grass, the search is plagued by a strange, low whistling sound that follows them. The next day, Cockrell tells his editor of the encounter, but it is dismissed. Regardless, word spreads, and soon, locals begin scouring the countryside for the beast.

Having a #GraftonMonster of a time here in West Virginia, but not sure if I'll make it home in time to stream... Guess I'm about to find out who's the faster sprinter, me or @thebestvirginian.bsky.social

No. 98 #GraftonMonster
Another from #WestVirginia This one has a lot of different pitches. Said to be 7 to 9 ft. tall, 4 ft. wide with white seal-like or stone skin. Walks like a gorilla, no head or it a head in the middle of his chest. I think I nailed a sort of Pokémon vibe.

What is the Grafton Monster? – Paranormal W.Va. The Grafton Monster is just one of several cryptid legends unique to West Virginia, but few are as strange and ambiguous in appearance as this gray giant.

I have to admit I am a little jealous that I do not live in a Cryptid hotspot, mostly because I am missing out on things like the The Grafton Monster! #CryptidCraftwork #Cryptids #Grafton #GraftonMonster

Underappreciated on other social media, but if you’re a cryptid-loving 80s kid, this is for YOU!
