00:00There's a young couple in Maryland who were recently married, and they were driving home late one night, and they had a flat tire.
00:08So the husband steps out, tells the wife, please wait here, I'm just going to go get a tire, get help, I'll be right back.
00:16Hours go by, and nothing.
00:20Next thing you know, she sees a seven foot tall goat man standing on the car.
00:25She got about 40 feet away from the car, and found the remains of her husband, head that had been completely ripped off, most of the limbs were severely mingled.
00:38A lot of cryptid stories, we get monsters that kind of represent humanity, they're upright, maybe they're hominids, Bigfoot stories, but these modern goat man stories, the origin stories are always, you know, racism, genetic experiments gone wrong, humans and animals intermixing.
00:55Just bad things.
00:58What sets the goat man legend apart from other cryptids is the fact that our essential image of a half man, half goat conjures up, you know, Satan, demons, the embodiment of ultimate evil.
01:15It's said that there's a half man, half goat kind of creature who lives under the trestles, and he's a siren.
01:22He likes to attract unsuspecting visitors up to the tracks.
01:28Sometimes he mimics voices, sometimes he acts like he's in distress, but for whatever reason, people are led up to the trestle.
01:36That's when people often fall to their deaths, or they're running and they stumble and they fall over the side.
01:43I think there's so many different versions of goat man, just because it, again, sort of exists as this primordial fear that we have, this idea of fear of the woods, fear of the unknown.
01:55It doesn't seem to occupy a physical state.
01:59It harkens back to that ancient form of evil, something that evolved centuries ago, something that's still around.
