The Beast of Bladenboro

In 1954, a savage killer kept a small North Carolina town in a grip of terror. He left big tracks, a bloody trail and a hair-raising legend. Was it a bear? A vampire-cat? To this day, the creature remains a mystery.

Via the Anomalist. I wonder if the Beast was the inspiration for the monster cat Greediguts in Robert McCammon's Usher's Passing, also set in North Carolina.
