The Road To Innsmouth

  What would you do if you saw something that wasn't there. Something moving through the forest that you can't quite focus on something you know is there but all you see is a faint outline and sometimes a pair of glowing yellow eyes. It sounds like the script for a 1980s jungle based action/sci-fi movie but talk to those who have seen these predator type entities as they are sometimes referred to and they will tell you that what they saw was all too real and all too terrifying.  These strange entities have been reported all over the world but there seems to been a large amount of reports throughout the U.S. Most are in rural areas or areas where there are large forests and wildernesses. It is remarkable how similar the reports are to each other and how closely they resemble that ailen hunter of the silver screen.

The legend may well have started as far back as the 1100s and culminated sone time in the 1800s when a stagecoach was viciously attacked where upon the creature was shot at and disappeared in to the night. For sone time all was quiet and stories of this creature died out and the creature itself nearly forgotten.  Then only 6 years ago the story started to resurface. The sightings although reported over multiple areas centered around the city of Hull. This is why the creature is sometimes called the Hull Werewolf. However it is far more well known by it's other name that of 'Old Stinker'. It is said to stand approximately 8 feet tall and have glowing red eyes and a foul breath giving rise to its less than affectionate name. Said by locals to inhabit areas of the UK that
