Reader Follow-Up - 'THOSE GLARING RED EYES!' Was it the GREEN MAN?

I received this follow-up to a recent post:

"Hi there Lon. I just read your article regarding the brothers in Northern England and the green entity with glowing eyes. As an archaeologist, I happen to have a background in European, culture specifically English/Briton, and thought I would try to help you shed some light on what happened in 1997.

The photo you included with the article reminded me of the Green Man, which is an ancient Celtic spirit the Druids believe to inhabit nature. You can usually see him in the leaves of trees. I admit, my mom knows more about the Green Man than I do. It's not a malevolent entity though, so it may be a different Fae altogether such as perhaps a hobgoblin which, if I'm not mistaken, is particularly hostile. I believe children are among their preferred targets as well. I'm unsure how tall they usually appear, though to an 8-year-old little boy, someone who stands 5 feet tall can appear huge. The creature also sounds to me like an elemental, at any rate, not unlike the creature that haunts Leap Castle.

I've enclosed a photo of the Green Man and hope it provides at least some closure to that family." PB

Welcome to Phantoms & Monsters 'Personal Reports' - cryptid & unexplained accounts directly from the archives of Phantoms & Monsters, and the Phantoms & Monster Fortean Research team. Narrated by Lon Strickler. Join us in the chat, discuss, and ask me questions about the accounts.

Featured in this edition:

The 'Not Deer' was first described as a phenomenon from Appalachia. But there have been similar sightings reported in other areas over recent years. So what is the 'Not Deer?' Is it just a freak of nature or is it a legitimate cryptid? Some say that it is a manifestation of Zombie Deer Syndrome or a wasting disease. That may be true in some instances. But generally, witnesses report an animal that has the body of a deer, but characteristics that parallel either human behavior & physical attributes. There are also a few instances where these creatures are said to shapeshift into other animals. So, sit back & listen to the presentation, & decide for yourself.

In this episode, I will describe the reports and incidents in detail and answer all questions from the chat room.
