A group of high school friends are in rural West Texas looking for a place to drink and party. The witness then states that he encountered a bipedal goat that ran at him like a human!
I received the following account about a Goatman post I had previously made:
"Some weird happened to me in high school, back around 1990 in West Texas near Fort Stockton. There are not many trees where I'm from except this 2-acre patch of thick trees right off the main drag. I was with 5 of my other friends at the time and we were curious about what was in the middle of that area. That and we were looking for a place to drink where we didn't have to drive out of town and party with the coyotes and rattlesnakes. Anyhow, we pulled into a residential street behind the wooded area and all walked in. It was nighttime, not super late or anything but it was still late enough to be kind of creepy though.
We all walked in single file, with me at the front. We were all talking as we walked in trying not to act scared, etc. Typical teenager stuff. We get far enough in that you can no longer see car lights nearby through the trees or anything. We stopped for a moment because my girlfriend at the time started to really get scared and didn't want to go further. When she did this, the other 2 girls that were with us got freaked out too, and didn't want to move ahead. I, however, trying to act macho at the time said, I ain't scared, and pushed ahead a few yards. Very soon, I could no longer see or hear my friends who should have still been very close.
I look over to my left and notice a very small clearing maybe 10 to 15 feet away. I noticed something.. It was white and low to the ground. Have you ever seen something and it's like your brain can't catch up to what you're seeing so it doesn't really register? As I try to focus on what it is, after a very brief moment I realize it's a white goat. Might sound weird but I had never seen a goat in real life before so this was unusual to me not to mention there were no fences or really anything to keep it where it was, so it was unusual I thought.
I don't know how much time elapsed for this whole experience but in hindsight, it feels like only a few seconds, but about as long as it took my brain to process that I was looking at a goat, I was overcome with fear. This thing turned to look at me, got up on 2 legs, and came running directly at me. I have never been so overcome with fear in my life. That thing maybe took about 8 or 9 steps and I turned to run back the way I came. Not macho anymore! I was screaming to run because a 2-legged goat was chasing me! We all hauled ass out of there and never went back. I was so freaked out that I told my parents about it. My Dad laughed and said the property owner probably just messes with kids that sneak in there. Maybe that's the case, I don't know, but I told my Dad that whatever it was ran directly at me, I mean it wasn't dodging trees or anything, just stood up to be maybe between 4 to 5 feet tall and came full charge straight at me on 2 legs like a human, would but with little goat legs.
It's kind of funny thinking about it again actually. I still don't know exactly what I saw but it appeared as a 2-legged goat sprinting at me upright through the trees. I never heard anything, like anything at all. No footsteps, no nothing which was also weird in hindsight. Anyhow, there's my weird goat story from West Texas." M
