A new video has recently surfaced on YouTube that has caught the attention of the Bigfoot community. The video, titled "The Man Beast of Western New York – High Hat, Black Creek Incident & Chased by a Monster (Part 3)," was uploaded by the channel Whispering Hollow. The video discusses the legend of High Hat, a cannibalistic creature said to roam the woods of Western New York. Descriptions of High Hat often depict it as a Bigfoot-like creature with a shaved head and a hat, possibly due to its penchant for wearing the clothing and hats of its human victims. One particularly interesting story shared in the video is that of a woman who encountered a creature while driving through Akron Falls Park. At first, she thought it was a dog, but as it ran across the road on two legs, she realized it was something much more unusual. The creature was described as having massive, muscular upper legs and a dog-like lower half, with a German Shepherd-like head. Another sighting shared in the video occurred when a group of people saw four of these creatures running upright through the woods. These creatures were described as having a dog-like appearance and running from east to west into a section of woods. The video also touches on the idea that High Hat may be a shape-shifting witch, due to its ability to wear clothing and hats and its possible connection to the Hokas and Hyoka of the west. I encourage our readers to check out this intriguing video for themselves. The stories shared in the video are both fascinating and chilling, and it's always exciting to hear about new sightings and legends within the Bigfoot community.
