5 Horror storylines Bray Wyatt should be booked in

#3 The Michigan Dogman and the Beast of Bray Road

Entities who are just as dangerous, perhaps even more than The Fiend, could turn the hunter into the hunted

Firstly, I’d like to clarify that this page isn’t exactly about the Werewolf, but instead about a couple of other entities who are quite similar to the Werewolf.

The Michigan Dogman

The Michigan Dogman is one of the most famous paranormal creatures in Michigan folklore and perhaps one of the most intimidating entities in North America. The very first sighting of the Michigan Dogman is said to have taken place in 1887 in Wexford County, Michigan when a couple of lumberjacks spotted an entity with a dog’s head and man’s body.

Furthermore, after a DJ by the name of Steve Cook who worked at WTCM-FM in Traverse City, Michigan released a song titled “The Legend” describing a creature similar to the legendary Michigan Dogman, a slew of alleged sightings of the creature were reported by residents in ensuing years.

Per Michigan folklore, the Dogman sightings see a huge spike every 10 years on the year that ends with a “7”. Purported sightings of the creature have been reported in 1937, 1967, 1987, 1997, etc. with a few sightings also occurring in years that don’t end with a “7”.

The Michigan Dogman is believed to let out a terrifying howl that sounds like a war cry of a human male with a disconcerting guttural voice; it’s 7-feet tall, has blue or red eyes, an incredibly muscular torso like that of a giant man, with the body of a wolf below its waist. It’s bipedal; being more than capable of walking and running on its two hind feet.

The Beast of Bray Road

The Beast of Bray Road is a creature that was first spotted back in 1936 on Bray Road, a rural stretch of road in Elkhorn, Wisconsin. Several other sightings in the 1980s and 1990s prompted the authorities to investigate the occurrences.

There’s an excellent book chronicling this entity written by investigative journalist Linda S. Godfrey who worked extensively with the locals who’d spotted the Beast in southern Wisconsin as well as northern Illinois.

Her book “The Beast of Bray Road: Tailing Wisconsin’s Werewolf” features descriptions of the encounters people claim to have had with a Werewolf-like creature whom some others also describe as a Demon Dog.

Intriguingly, most of the descriptions provided by witnesses indicate that the Beast of Bray Road is quite similar to the Michigan Dogman.

On the contrary, a few other accounts assert that the Beast of Bray Road is covered with a brown-gray fur and looks like a bear-like humanoid creature; with others noting that it looks like another mythical creature Bigfoot.

The Michigan Dogman, the Beast of Bray Road, and Bray Wyatt

In the previous pages, we’d discussed Bray Wyatt possessing the powers of a Strigoi as well as breaking through the space and time continuum to fight his older personas. Basically, we examined scenarios where The Fiend is the predator and everyone else is his prey.

But what if the hunter becomes the hunted?

Considering the fact that the WWE is open to featuring several pre-taped segments in order to help them present Wyatt’s supernatural abilities in a more impressive manner, it’d be great to see The Fiend face an equally or perhaps even more dangerous entity than himself; with their encounters being presented in a pre-taped cinematic manner.

Let’s not forget that WWE RAW and SmackDown are, at the end of the day, TV shows! And with that in mind, seeing “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt fight the Michigan Dogman and/or the Beast of Bray Road would be undeniably entertaining.

As far as how the WWE portrays the Michigan Dogman and the Beast of Bray Road; well, the company has access to top-tier costumes, make-up, and special effects, and can easily present pre-taped segments featuring Wyatt battling the aforementioned creatures preferably outside the ring…
