During April, 1971 folks living in Mobile, Alabama and surrounding areas, had sightings of a strange and bizarre cryptic creature. This short lived sighting spurred the legend of the Wolf Woman of Mobile.
One of the first sightings a man happened to see it in his backyard. He described it as being “like a woman and wolf. Pretty and hairy”?
A local teen said that his dad was down at the local marshes when he spotted it. It chased him all the way home, and after that they began keeping their doors and windows locked.
Despite over 50 reported sightings of the creature, no one was ever harmed by it. People believed it was a create who escaped from a circus sideshow, or even a feral woman. These days a lot of folks believe it was a skinwalker from native tales.
