The Dover Demon

In April 1977, four teenagers in Dover, Massachusetts, independently encountered something: a watermelon-shaped head with glowing eyes, thin body, no nose or mouth.

Bill Bartlett, John Baxter, and Abby Brabham all described the same creature. No hoax was proven. The Dover Demon appeared twice, then vanished forever.


For two nights, something appeared in Dover. Then it was gone.
