The Beast of Bray Road is often described as a seven foot tall canine that walks on two legs and appears to weigh over 400 pounds. It had its first official sighting in the 1980s, though other dogman type creatures had been reported in Wisconsin as far back as the 1930s.

In 1936, 1964 and 1972 police reports were written by witnesses claiming to have seen werewolves in different parts of the state, but none of these reports could even come close to the detailed sightings that started in 1989 near Delavan, Wisconsin.

Doristine Gipson

The first report came in on October 31 - 1989, Doristine Gipson from Elkhorn claimed she was driving down Bray Road that evening and felt the car jump as though she had hit something on the road. She got out of the car to investigate but at first couldn't find anything out of the ordinary, behind or under the vehicle, when suddenly, out of the darkness, a large beast came charging towards her.

She immediately got back into her car and began a hasty retreat, at which point the creature jumped onto the trunk of her car. Fortunately the creature was unable to hang on as she sped away from the scene.

Lorianne Endrizzi has similar encounter

That same year Lorianne Endrizzi had her own horrific encounter with the beast. While she was driving her daily route home along Bray Road she saw what appeared to be a man, kneeling on the side of the road.

As she pulled closer to the figure she got a very clear view of what appeared to be a werewolf type creature with gray tinted fur, large teeth, yellow eyes and pointed ears. She told police it looked like someone had put a German shepherd or wolf head on a hairy mans body.
