I'm sure I faxed it. Maybe it got caught by your spam filter. After all, I sure don't want to receive messages about men and goats.

Interestingly enough, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram ran a byline about the Greer Island Goatman in a recent article about the changes that are impending for the Lake Worth shoreline as a result of residents purchasing their previously leased lakefront property. The article provided insight into Lake Worth's history and the crazy patchwork quilt of characters who live on its' shores. The silly Goatman episode (and the Roswell link you mentioned) only confirms the sad fact that humans are stupid herd animals who fall victim to groupthink and mythological yearning whenever an unusual event occurs. |

I live around Lake Worth. The goatman is just about as real as the boogyman. My mother told me as a child growing up here that the reason we had foam pillows was so we wouldn't attract the Goatman. |

I didn't know anything about the goatman until I read about it online because I was trying to figure out what the hell I saw. This thing, whatever it is, is REAL. I swear to God I saw it in Southlake, Texas. At first I thought it was a big dog walking on all fours, then it got up and went to hide behind a tree. It was man-sized and its eyes glowed like an animals when I shone the flashlight on them. I saw it on a neighborhood street bordering on a wooded area off Dove street, around 4 AM. This happened I think in early March. I am not making this up. I don't know what it is, but I don't lean toward explanations that involve the various folklore surrounding it (devil worship, werewolves, etc.) and it did not look like a goat to me so I don't know where that comes from. There were no horns that I could see.
It scared the hell out of me to have it come creeping up like it did, and when I got my maglite it slinked away fast without a trace. This thing is NOT a hoax, but I don't know what the hell it is. At first it moved like an animal, then like a man. Very weird! |

Sorry to interrupt your thread... I used to go to Lake Worth and hang around an old house(?). All that was there was a cement floor, rock walls 1/2-way up, and 2 rock chimneys. There was a winding rock staircase leading down to a huge rock in the water. I think it was off of Cahoba, by Lover's Lookout. It's been a long time since I've been there. Anybody know what the heck that thing was? Please e-mail me at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) |

Muck: Does the name "Lookout Point" sound familiar? Or at least think that is what it was called. How many times did you makeout at that point, or at least down by the rock. As you can tell, I'm from Lake Worth and I actually remember when the Goatman was first seen and even went looking for him one night. Didn't find him tho. There was write ups in the paper and even statues of him that you could buy at the gas stations by the Lake Worth Bridge. Now, I wish I would have bought one. |

Actually I just moved from Lake Worth. I never saw the goatman. My neighbors were pretty scary though. All that neighborhood lacks is some inbred sitting on a porch playing that Deliverance song on a banjo. Freaky place. It would not suprise me one bit to see some freaky thing like a goatman there. |

I have had several encounters with an entity that may be the legendary goatman. But they are very brief and very fast. He seems to have a prankish personality enjoying scaring the piss out of people. The very first time I saw him he was inside the body of a man that was visiting someone in my home. I thought at that time and still believe he it is a demon or an evil spirit. I started praying for protection immedietley in the name of my Lord and savior Jesus Christ the son of our heavenly Father Jehovah the one that was and is and always will be. For whatever reason the goatman demon has choosen to make himself known to me free of inhabiting a human body. He moves really fast and has a sinister chaotic personality that seems to really get off on the things he does. Like catching me off guard in my garden. He seems to laugh when he startles me and I let out a scream. I have always prayed as quickly as possible in the name of Jesus and he has had to go without delay. A couple of months ago a friend discribed seeing this same entity to me. She had no way of knowing my experiences with it. But, I had told my boyfriend about these encounters. And he was with me when she shared her story with me. We just sat there listening and when she was finish telling what she had seem. I told what I had seem. Her boyfriend is an artist and she had him draw a scetch of what she had seem before we ever shared our stories she also demonstrated how it moved. Because of these things I believe we experinced the same entity or same kind of entity. |

THe house referred to above near look out point is now the "Bail Bonds Man" house. It had partially burned a long time ago, maybe 30 years ago and redid later, so if it was that long ago that you were in the house with 1/2 walls that is it. The Castle is not near the water and is not up on a cliff to go down any stairs to get to the water. I've lived on Lake Worth for more than 10 years and never have even seen an alligator and I'm up in the swampy part of the lake all the time by Greer island....but it sure is funny to read some of this stuff. There are some interesting characters around this lake, but most of them are ran out by the taxes going up so much now and their shacks are replaced with half a million dollar homes. |

Goatman
by Jann
During January of 2002, I was awakened at night by my dogs as they barked fiercely outside my bedroom window. I sat up in bed then looked out my window where the outside light was sufficient for my viewing. I was very shocked as to what I saw.
There was a goatman creature walking under my pecan tree while my dogs steadily nipped at its heels. This creature was about seven feet tall and standing upright as a man with slightly curved shoulders, with the horns and hooves of a goat. His hands were slightly curled with some very nasty gray fingernails. His skin was a yellowish-green color with sparse hair all about his body. Its legs and body were that of a man.
I didn't see him straight forward, but caught a glance at the side of his face, which was nearly the shape of a man's. I can only say that I was shocked and afraid, but the goatman never turned to look at me and busied himself to walk faster and away from my dogs.
From time to time, I can hear the sound of a goat calling in the night. Strangely, we do not have goats in this area of Normangee, Texas, only cattle. |

ha ha ha cali. goat and man would = goatman right? he is just an orphan banished to greer island. poor thing. i think i will take him some chicken.
when we go out on the boat, sometimes we stay over night. we park the party barge at the beach on the little island in the middle of lake worth. I thought or think that is called goatman island (didn't know he was on greer island) Anyway, on the north side of that island, the wind is calmer and you can do more water sports. we have spent about 10 nights there in the last 7 years. the only beasts we have seen on the island at night are the nutria's. they can make some big splashes. use to wake me up a scare the wits outta me! lol |

Actually, there used to be a "wino farm" (now known as rehab facilities)near there.The old building is still standing. We always heard someone got out of there (it was fenced in) and "mated" with a goat to produce the goat man....pretty stupid stuff, but kinda fun for teen-agers. We used to drive by the "win farm" and throw full beers over the fence to watch'em fight over it! Kids can be sooooo cruel! |

Yes, the Goatman was VERY real, then again, we are talking about the summer of '69! He was all over the newspapers that year and I know that lots of us went looking for him. Marli, as Curtis said, the stories were true and ya just don't lie about the goatman... Curtis, I was also a freshman at LW in '69 and part of the graduating class in '72. |

I love hearing stories about Lake Worth from people who actually lived there rather than anecdotes from folks who spent a drunken evening chasing 'monsters' around Greer Island and the Mudflats. Lake Worth has a great history build up around moonshiners, gangsters, gamblers, the Ballroom at Casino Beach and a variety of real lakefront locals. Goofy Goatman legends detract from the rich history the area has to offer. |

i lived in lake at that time. thats when mudd flats still had levies one and two and gear island.we used to get on a little mg car convertable and go everywhere. the only thing i seen was wild dogs. eventho i never seen the goatman, he was somethink about. i remember one night at old taylers hill. we heard a loud noise,like someone had wrecked,then we heard weird noises below. i jumped into the carand locked the doors.it scared me so bad i wouldn,t let anyone in. they were throwing big rocks down the hill, until i finaly let them in.it sounded like something hugh was walking up that hill. we backed out and shined our lightsover the hill. we didn,t see anything.we got the heck out of there! i guess that was the closest i came to the monster. except the statue on azle ave. |

I live in river oaks, which is next door to lake worth. The lake it self is in the middle of River oaks and the City of Lake Worth. Kinda a crappy lake. The goat man lives on goat man island. And it is right next to the Naval Air station in Fort Worth. It was named Carswell Air force Base at the time period the alien artifacts where brought there. Carswell/Roswell...Fishy to me. Now with the sightings in Stepenville, the jets in the area coming from that naval air station. Maybe the goat man is a genetically altered creature that got loose. Or was a test. Government may be creating the other supposed sightings so everyone will think this is fake ,or a hoax, in order to cover up the sightings from here. Lots to think of this. The government could of put the whole goat man name out there in order make this seem fake? I do know growing up there, and going to the lake quite often, We only went to the island and were quickly asked to leave the island and find somewhere else to go. I'm not saying I believe in this thing, just that there is one in the lake right on the base that these artifacts were brought to gets me interested.

I googled lake worth monster and found this site. When I was in 7th grade (so around 1990 or 1991), I was playing with some friends who lived on a street in River Oaks called Nancy Lane. The backyards of the houses there led into the woods along the trinity river and across the river was Carswell. We were standing in an empty lot, and we all heard the most god-awful yell I've ever heard. It was inhuman...if you crossed the sound of a human yell with some animalistic roar, it'd be close. I'll never forget that.
Of course, if I hadn't witnessed it myself, I'd be incredibly skeptical. There are so many faked experiences. Of course, I doubt I'll be believed...and to each, their own. But man...that was the weirdest noise I've ever heard. Was it the goatman? That I don't know...but it wasn't human, that I'm sure of. |

Brian - WHAT are you smoking? The government put the Goatman name out 40 years ago to cover up the sightings in Stephenville now????? Ok, maybe so. Let's see. Goatman - big hairy creature ON LAND in nature center vs UFO sightings IN THE SKY with lights and amazing speed ... AND 40 years apart? How did I miss those similarities? (purple haze??) lol Could be wrong, but don't believe he has been sighted since 1969 on Greer Island - not Goatman Island. |

Im not saying they had anything to do with each other. Just thought it is weird how that lake is right next door to the airforce base. The base is where the jets that flew over stephenville, came from, and the same base parts of the area 51 crash were sent to. A base that alot of presidents have been at. Maybe some genectic creature got loose from the base. It was called Carswell Airforce base. Pretty close to Roswell. |
