The Goatman famously resides in Prince George's County, Maryland (Go Terps) and is a 7-foot, goat-human hybrid that terrorizes local teens in cars. The Maryland Goatman used to be a scientist who worked in the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center, which is a stately-looking USDA compound. He sort of lost his shit while experimenting on goats, and accidentally mad-scientist-ed himself into the Goatman when an experiment went awry. He found himself an axe somewhere and started wandering back roads, attacking cars with an axe. Described in the same way since the days of the satyr, the first recorded Goatman sighting was in 520 BCE in Ancient Greece, making him one of the most enduring cryptids in the world — no word on whether all of them were regular dudes being punished for their hubris.
