Only a few creatures that can be associated with the mysterious world of cryptozoology and the world of UFOlogy as well. Dover Demon is one of them. But because the name was given by a cryptozoologist, the Dover Demon eventually better known as a cryptid creature rather than aliens.Unlike Nessie seen over a span of about 1,500 years, the Dover Demon is only seen for 3 days. But it's enough to make this creature into the list of creatures most mysterious cryptid in the world and became the subject of cryptozoology research is sufficiently long to this day.Encounter Bill BartlettIt started on April 21, 1977, at 10:30 pm.At that time, three young men aged about 17 years old was driving in the area of Massachusetts, United States. Bill Bartlett held the wheel while the other two friends were chatting.Suddenly, headlights highlight a strange figure.Bill was surprised by what he had just seen. At first he thought he was seeing a dog or cat, but he realized that the creature was not like he thought.The body was quite a strange creature because it is not proportionate to the size of the head that looks like a melon. His eyes round as marbles, colored orange and looks radiant. Hands and legs are very thin and long fingers adorned with very thin.But what makes Bill is unnerved her unusual appearance. The face is flat, without a nose, mouth or ears.Although highlighted by the glare of headlights, the creature did not seem to care. Bill saw the rock he crawled from the wall toward the highway with a thin palms before finally disappearing in the darkness of night.Bill colleagues who else is busy talking to each other so do not get to see the creature. But Bill knew that he was not mistaken - a strange creature who had never met before.So, that night, a creature who later called the Dover Demon debut.A few hours later, it comes back up in front of other witnesses.Encounter John Baxter2 hours later, not far from there, John Baxter, 15, and Pete Mitchell, 13, was walking back to his home after visiting a friend's house.Suddenly, their eyes fixed on a petite figure that looks in the distance. John thinks the figure is a friend who named Bouchard who is also small. So he called his name.There was no response. John and Pete were approaching.Small figure that then ran toward the ditch, stopped next to a tree and stood there a moment. That's when they both realize that the figure was not Bouchard."The creature was standing at a distance of about 15 feet from where I stood. We just stood there looking at him. I'm sure if the creature was staring at me." John said, remembering the events that night.A few moments later the creature disappeared into the woods. John felt his heart beat faster. Then he ran to the Farm Street and returned to his home. That night he drew sketches and sketch creature he saw it was similar to the sketch which is also drawn by Bill Bartlett.The next day, two other witnesses saw the creature's back.Abby Brabham encounterOn the morning of 23 April 1977, Will Traintor, 18, was driving on Springdale Avenue to drive home his girlfriend named Abby Brabham, 15 years.As the car drove, Abby accidentally saw a strange creature standing on the left side of the highway."The creature looks like a monkey. Then I saw his head and realized that his head was too big and weird.. His eyes are bright green and looked radiant and seemed to be staring at me."The creature hit the ground with both hands and feet. She estimates that the creature had approximately the same height with a goat. Abby same description given by the description given Bill Bartlett. The difference, Abby mentions that the creature has bright green eyes, not orange.Sketches made by Abby BrabhamWhen reports of this sighting to the authorities, Bartlett, Baxter, Brabham and Traintor give a sketch of the creature seen by them. And third sketch showed a similar creature!To reaffirm that experience, in the sketch, he wrote one sentence: "I, Bill Bartlett, swear on the Bible if I actually saw the creature."Sketches were made based on reports Bill BartlettNot long after, the story of the encounter reached the ears of Loren Coleman, a prominent cryptozoologist who lived in the area. He then invites UFO researcher named Walter Webb and Ed Fogg to investigate the case together.Sketches were made based on reports John BaxterThey conduct interviews of witnesses, teachers and police officers.After investigating for-days, they concluded that these witnesses did not manipulate the appearance of this because they tell the same encounter with the creature, although not previously know each other.Then Loren Coleman calls this creature as the Dover Demon. The media loved it and the creature was getting its official name until now.Until then, no one ever knows the actual identity of the creature.The creature is it?Some people believe that the creature is an alien because of its resemblance to the alien creatures in UFO sightings. Others argue that the creature is probably a new species of animals that have not known, mutant or hybrid creatures.Others doubt the credibility of these appearances even remember all the witnesses were teenagers. An example is the theory of Martin S. Kottmeyer. He believes that what is seen by the witnesses were in fact merely a young deer. The position of the eyes in his face, the absence of the nose and mouth, much like the description of a young deer's head. Moreover, all sightings occur at night so the imagination witness will easily fool them.Young DeerBut Coleman believes that these creatures more mysterious than one might expect. According to Coleman, the history of Dover town full of mysterious things."In this city, we have three major legends going. First in the city have been reported sightings of phantom horses, then the legend of buried treasure and then Dover Demon. I think this is connected to each other."So, is it possible that young children have seen a deer or a horse like that is believed some people?Coleman was not sure about that. He has been combing the area and did not find any one who lost a horse breeder. Regarding the deer, there are only two deer ever seen in Massachusetts, namely 1977 and 1978. Both are located in Massachusetts middle, not in the area of sighting. Moreover, if indeed creatures who viewed the witnesses are the two reindeer, it is unlikely that small size. Thus the identity of this creature is still mysterious.If this creature was an unknown species, why are only visible for three days?This question is also confusing Coleman. He said:"Regarding the Dover Demon, there never was a creature like that previously reported. Dover Demon does not match the description of Chupacabra, Roswell aliens or bat ears that ever attacked a family in Kentucky in 1955. This case is unique because it has no connection with other phenomena. "And because of that uniqueness, Dover Demon mystery remains unsolved to this day.Dover Demon - enduring mysteryIn 2006, reporters from the Boston Globe to see Bill Bartlett recalled his encounter with the Dover Demon. After 29 years passed Bill persisted in his testimony and reiterated that he did not manipulate the story.Even Bill said that he regretted having to tell that story because his credibility was questioned by many people."I do not know what I saw at that time.""To be sure, I know I have seen something. I do not manipulate the story, although sometimes I wish I had merekayasanya. I never tried to be funny. All those who know me know that I'm not making any of this.""I hope that the creature came back so everyone knows if I tell the truth."Loren Coleman gives his own reflections about the Dover Demon."It's ok if we say that we do not know the answer to this mystery.'"I think the Dover Demon mystery will continue to live. Apparition is that kemashyurannya unexplained phenomenon has spread throughout the world, and I think the city of Dover will be proud of it."
