Cryptid sighting near Tripp County
before there was horses
night
Tripp County, South Dakota
8 witnesses
Account
Long ago before horses, a thirty-foot giant attacked a small village at night, destroying lodges and swallowing several women whole. Eight men tracked him, dug a massive trench, lured him to trip into it, and buried him with rocks and earth until he suffocated. They cut open his belly to recover the women, and his grave is said to be a lone oblong butte.
