- The Fresno NightcrawlerPale, walking figures that appear to be almost entirely a pair of legs, caught on home security camera footage in Fresno, California, in the 2000s.
- The Grafton MonsterA seven-to-nine-foot white figure with no visible head, reported on the riverbank in Grafton, West Virginia, in June 1964 by a local newspaper reporter driving home late at night.
Witness statements
Testimony collected by the office. Witnesses are cryptids, not customers. Statements are unconfirmed.
The Dover DemonDover, Massachusetts · 1977Unverified witness Head runs large. Shirt runs fine.
I am mostly head and the rest of me is mostly ankle. The small still hangs like a nightgown. I've decided I like it. A teenager saw me in it and drew it. Accurately, for once.
The Flatwoods MonsterBraxton County, West Virginia · 1952Unverified witness Finally, something that fits over the hood.
Ten feet tall, spade-shaped cowl, metal skirt. Sizing has been a lifelong struggle. The 3XL went on with room to spare. I wore it back to the hill where I landed and for once nobody ran.
The Fresno NightcrawlerFresno, California · 2007Unverified witness Fits great. Nowhere to put it.
I am, as the security footage shows, entirely legs. I bought the tee anyway and wear it as a sort of cape. People on my street have stopped filming me and started asking where I got it.
The Grafton MonsterGrafton, West Virginia · 1964Unverified witness No notes on the collar.
Nine feet tall, pale, and without a head. The collar is therefore a non-issue. The fabric is heavy, which I appreciate on the riverbank at night.
The Hopkinsville GoblinsKelly, Kentucky · 1955Unverified witness Bought eleven. We are a family.
Last time we visited a farmhouse in Kentucky it went badly for everyone. This time we used the website. Every one of us is a medium. Every one of us floats. No complaints.
NingenAntarctic waters · 2002Unverified witness Finally, a brand that respects the Treaty.
Nobody owns the continent. Nobody mines it. Nobody asks. I swim under all of it in this shirt and I have never felt more represented.
