The legend of the Alabama White Thing has been prevalent since the 1940s in the triangle between Morgan, Etowah and Jefferson counties, where people reported seeing a creature more than 7 feet tall and covered in white hair.
It has been sighted in Happy Hollow, Walnut Grove, Moody’s Chapel and Wheeler Wildlife Refuge.
The creature is known for its ability to move extremely quickly, despite its size, and for its eerie screech that sounds like a woman’s scream. Some have described the scream as sounding like that of a panther.
Many have speculated that the White Thing is an albino Bigfoot.
Tonight I will be speaking to Nathan who is from Alabama and has seen this white creature two different times. Nathan says “I thought it was an old creature, it looked old. The eyes of the creature appeared to be wise, smart like it was thinking…”
