Episode 9 The Flatwoods Monster The Flatwoods Monster hails from the country side of Braxton County in West Virginia. This creature was first seen in 1952 following a crash landing in a farm field in Flatwoods. Some believe this cryptid falls more in the category of extraterrestrial as it was found outside it's fallen space vessel. With its green metal body , tomato red face, and pointed hood like an ace of spaces, this creature is sure to frighten anyone who comes across it's path.
