The Flatwoods monster in West Virginia folklore, is an entity reported to have been sighted in the town of Flatwoods in Braxton County, West Virginia on September 12, 1952.

Legend has it that the group that saw the monster described it as a 10-foot tall monster hovering above the ground, spewing smoke and gas. Its head was red, and spade-shaped, with a distinct point at the top. It had glowing eyes, with spindly arms and claws. Its body was covered in what looked to be green armor.

This monster was a 2-piece 16.5” tall glass sculpture, created from a Clover Green base accompanied by a spade-shaped, pointy stopper in our Ruby Red color and accented with beady Pawpaw eyes.

Item was only available until November 1, 2020.
