The Maryland Goatman is a cryptid located in the Prince Georges County, Maryland. It was first sighted in 1973, and since then various other sightings have been made. The creature itself has been described as a "half-human, half-goat" being, with a goat's head, human-esque arms and torso, and human legs with hooves. Due to the various sightings made throughout the years, differences of height and weight have been made, with height ranging from 6-8 feet tall, and weight 250-300 pounds. There was also a note made after a sighting in the 1990's, where a man described the sound of the creature as "High-pitched squeals", and the fact that the creature carried an axe.
