Flatwoods town festival remembers legendary 1952 UFO encounter.

On October 8th, 1952, an unexplained phenomenon occurred in Flatwoods, West Virginia, which has since been known as the "Flatwoods Monster" incident.

According to the story, a group of local residents, including two brothers, their mother, and a few other children, witnessed a bright object streaking across the sky and appearing to land on a nearby hill. Curious about what they had seen, the group ventured up the hill to investigate.

As they approached the site, they were overwhelmed by a pungent, noxious odor. Suddenly, they saw a pair of glowing, red eyes peering at them from the darkness. The witnesses claimed to see a large, creature-like figure, which was described as being around 10 feet tall, with a red face, a green body, and a spade-shaped head. The creature appeared to be holding some kind of device, which emitted a hissing sound and a blinding light.

Terrified by the encounter, the group fled the scene and reported the incident to the local authorities. The story quickly spread, attracting the attention of journalists and UFO enthusiasts from around the country.

Investigations into the incident yielded various theories, ranging from a misidentified owl perched on a tree branch to a possible hoax. Some even suggested that the "monster" was actually a secret government aircraft or an extraterrestrial being.

However, despite numerous attempts to explain the events of that night, the Flatwoods Monster incident remains a mystery. The story has become a part of West Virginia folklore and continues to capture the imagination of those interested in the paranormal and unexplained phenomena.

To this day, the town of Flatwoods embraces its unique history, with a Flatwoods Monster Museum and an annual festival celebrating the strange event that put the small town on the map. The Flatwoods Monster incident remains one of the most intriguing and enduring unexplained phenomena associated with October 8th.
