EXPLORING THE MYTH OF THE POPE LICK MONSTER (KENTUCKY GOATMAN)

There is an urban legend surrounding a very old but still used rairoad trestle in Kentucky which involves a mythical half-man, half-goatmonster that lures people onto the 100 foot-high  trestle where they are caught in the headlights of a fast-moving train and are left with a run,jump, or die response that usually ends in a quick death.  The story of the non-existent monster, its appeal to youth, and its growing number of victims follows.  Warning: do not chase this legend.  Join us at www.bestof1001stories.com and browse over 2,500 episodes from short stories to Shwerlock Holmes to myths and legends- and leave us a review!
