BIG MUDDY MONSTER ENCOUNTER, 1988 - Murphysboro, Illinois. On the evening of June 9, 1988, Bob Reiman was called to his Murphysboro salvage yard by his night watchman, Charlie Straub, who claimed that a trespassing someone - or something - was heard to be moving amongst the bushes behind the yard. After arriving, Reiman and Straub took their flashlights and began to investigate the property’s perimeter. They soon encountered the strange visage of a creature called “The Big Muddy Monster,” or “The Murphysboro Mud Monster” (reportedly last seen in the area in 1973-75), snarling its way through the brush. It stood over 8 feet-tall, weighed 400+ lbs., and was a white-furred “Bigfoot” with glowing red eyes. And it smelled horrible. In fear, the men fled to the yard’s metal shop building, where they were soon joined by Joyce Juerge and Cheryl Reiman. Disbelief soon turned to terror as something large began to forcefully pound on the shop’s metal walls from the outside. Luckily, the fearsome assault soon ended and the mysterious assailant retreated back into the dark night. In the following days, local media lauded the “Return of the Big Muddy Monster” and showed photos of the Bigfoot-sized prints found along the tracks near the yard.
