Elkhorn, WIS. (CBS 58) - Bray Road in Elkhorn holds a decades-long history as home to an otherworldly creature. The Beast of Bray Road is a folklore that's latched onto Southeastern Wisconsin.
Legend has it a night watchman at a school in Jefferson saw a large figure digging in a burial mound back in 1936. It stood up at over six feet tall with a human form, a canine face and an echoing growl. The beast wasn't spotted again until the 1980s with several reported sightings, all on Bray Road, since.
