Nestled in the heart of the Tygart Valley in northern West Virginia lies the city of Grafton, home to 4,722 residents according to the most recent census data. Grafton, recognized as the birthplace of Mother’s Day in the United States, was once a booming town known for its railroads and its strategic significance during the early stages of the American Civil War. From the burial site of Thornsbury Baily Brown, believed to be the first Union soldier killed in the Civil War in May 1861, to the International Mother’s Day Shrine on the city’s main street, Grafton is rich in historical significance and landmarks that reflect the enduring spirit of the community and its contributions to American history.

Over the years, the sleepy hills and hollows of the great Mountain State have given rise to numerous legends, including Mothman and the Flatwoods Monster. It is here that we find yet another creature known as the Grafton Monster.

Descriptions vary by source, but the creature is commonly portrayed as a very tall, pale or light-colored figure, sometimes described as appearing headless and producing an unusual whistling sound.
