At the beginning of the 21st Century monsters still roam the remote, and sometimes not so remote, corners of our planet. It is our job to search for them. The Centre for Fortean Zoology [CFZ] is - we believe - the largest professional, scientific and full-time organisation in the world dedicated to cryptozoology - the study of unknown animals. Since 1992 the CFZ has carried out an unparalleled programme of research and investigation all over the world. Since 2009 we have been running the increasingly popular CFZ Blog Network, and although there has been an American branch of the CFZ for over ten years now, it is only now that it has a dedicated blog.

HORNED HUMANOID SIGHTING

The following information comes from a letter in the Alexandria Gazette, a Virginia newspaper, in 1868.

An incident occurred on the farm of one Silas Brown (pseudonym).  This worthy lived in Prince William Forest near Independence Hill (Virginia).  He saw a creature a number of times near his barn and on one occasion was actually assaulted by it.  The beast was described as being as large as a man, its back was 6'-8', its arms were substantial, it had large horns and awful claws which could be contracted into hoof-like structures.  Its normal color was blue, but upon being angered it turned white.  Another witness also claimed to have seen it.

If all of this is true, the assault on Brown does not seem to have been fatal and he does not seem to have thought it necessary to vacate his premises to avoid the creature, which might imply that the injuries he received were not too serious.
