This week on Spooky Sleuths, we’ve traveled to Flatwoods, West Virginia, to uncover the chilling mystery of the Flatwoods Monster, one of the most bizarre and infamous cryptid sightings in American folklore. We're visiting all five iconic Flatwoods Monster chairs spread across Braxton County before heading to the Flatwoods Monster Museum—where the legends truly come alive.

First sighted on September 12, 1952, this glowing, spade-headed creature has sparked decades of speculation: alien, cryptid, or something else entirely? From the eerie encounter that started it all to theories of UFOs and owls, we're diving deep into the story, the evidence, and the legacy of this fascinating case.
