The Beast of Bray Road is a legendary cryptid reported in and around Elkhorn, Wisconsin. Described as a bipedal, wolf-like creature with glowing eyes and immense strength, it has been linked to Native American folklore, early European settler reports, and modern eyewitness accounts.

The legend gained mainstream attention in the late 1980s and early 1990s when locals reported terrifying encounters—some claimed the beast chased their vehicles, clawed at them, or stood watching from the roadside. Evidence includes claw marks, strange footprints, and mutilated livestock.

Theories about its origins range from a misidentified wolf or bear to more bizarre possibilities like a werewolf, a government experiment, or even a supernatural entity. Despite the chilling encounters, no definitive proof of the Beast’s existence has been found.

The mystery remains: Is it a cryptid, a legend, or something beyond human understanding?
