Check Out These Strange American Legends

Check out this list of strange American legends. Things that go bump in the night other than bigfoot. Some things that we've never heard of.

Momo

During the 1970s, Missouri had its own version of Bigfoot: Momo, short for Missouri Monster. It started when two boys were outside, playing in the woods, and something scared them. They ran back to their house, and their sister spotted a large, hairy monster at the edge of the woods, holding a dead dog. After that, more people claimed they saw the monster, but the stories died down in later decades.

Green Man

The Green Man is not exactly a legend. He is actually a real man who lived in western Pennsylvania for 74 years before his death. As a child, lightning struck Raymond Robinson, and it left him without eyes or a nose and only one arm and ear. His appearance scared local people, especially children, so he stayed inside most days, but he roamed the streets at night. Cars sometimes hit him, and he often hid from people who dared go looking for him, but no one knows for sure why he walked so much at night.
