Darren MarlarHOST
What was this thing, if anything? Was it a real werewolf, a misidentified bear, or something more like a Sasquatch? We will probably never know, and the Converse Texas Werewolf remains little more than a perplexing historical oddity.
Darren MarlarHOST
Joining werewolves in the wilds of Texas is what's been described as basically a cross between a man and a goat, and which supposedly haunts the picturesque locale of White Rock Lake.
Darren MarlarHOST
For years, there have been accounts from the area of being terrorized by a humanoid entity that has a body mostly like that of a man, but with hoofed feet, a horned head, and long fingers with twisted, claw-like fingernails.
Darren MarlarHOST
Whatever it is, the Goatman of White Rock Lake has been seen far and wide, and has become entrenched in the local lore.
Darren MarlarHOST
Interestingly, Texas seems to be crawling with Goatmen, and there is another said to haunt the old Alton Bridge in Denton County, and yet another said to prowl the wilds of Lake Worth.
Darren MarlarHOST
Cryptids? Ghosts? Interdimensional beings? What in the world are the Goatmen? We'll look at a couple more examples later in the podcast.
Jeff CunninghamHOST
I remember the first two, three marathons that I ran – in fact, I want to say embarrassingly even subsequent ones – I took maybe two gels max, one and a half, maybe one gel, two gels, I guess.
Jeff CunninghamHOST
Todd Copeland and I, we would take one at seven miles right before we would get to White Rock Lake at what's called the Dallas BMW Marathon.
Jeff CunninghamHOST
It used to be called White Rock Marathon because it went around White Rock Lake, right? Seven mile mark before we would get to the lake, we would take our first gel, and then I think we would take one at like 14 miles, and that was it.
Jeff CunninghamHOST
That was it, right? And I remember I would get hamstring cramps a lot of times by the time I get to 21, 22 miles.
Jeff CunninghamHOST
And I used to think, well, you know, that's just because I'm tired.
Lauren Drews DanielsGUEST
Well, so it's when someone comes in and just takes over a space and they feel like they have some right to be there, even if they're not purchasing anything and it is a business.
Lauren Drews DanielsGUEST
And so that was from East Middle Ground Coffee over by White Rock Lake.
Lauren Drews DanielsGUEST
And yeah, it's a term she came up with.
Lauren Drews DanielsGUEST
She's a smaller cafe.
AshleyHOST
We recorded a Hometown Haunts Texas episode with stand-up comedian Justin Foster back in the day.
AshleyHOST
And in that episode, we discussed the Goatman of White Rock Lake.
AshleyHOST
This episode is Season 2, Episode 10, Juggalos, Chupacabras, and the Messiahs? White Rock Lake?
Justin FosterGUEST
Yeah.
AshleyHOST
This is like my favorite creepy Texas legend that I found.
AshleyHOST
White Rock Lake is in northeast Dallas, right? Did you spend a lot of time there?
Justin FosterGUEST
I lived right by there.
Justin FosterGUEST
Oh, my God.
Chris KrokHOST
Absolutely.
Chris KrokHOST
In just a second, Talafrico, a little bit on Talafrico and break-ins at cars in all over, a plenty at White Rock Lake.
Chris KrokHOST
But first, do you know what it means? One of my – at my old church, the assistant pastor – was having a meeting, a woman sat down, he had an impromptu meeting with a woman.
Chris KrokHOST
They were sitting down in his office.
6 MINS LATER
Chris KrokHOST
That's your kindergarten class.
Chris KrokHOST
Why wouldn't you want to be in public education? What's not to love? Clearly, these people are running laps around China.
Chris KrokHOST
Dallas police upping patrols at White Rock Lake after increasing vehicle break-ins.
Chris KrokHOST
A workout instructor who holds classes in the area says her group has had items stolen from their vehicles for three straight weeks.
Matt McGaugheyGUEST
But it was a 1960 Bristol Corinthian.
Matt McGaugheyGUEST
And here in Dallas, I don't know if you know this, but White Rock Lake is the largest inner city lake of any metropolitan area
Matt RosenHOST
in the
Matt McGaugheyGUEST
country.
David JacquesHOST
What? Breakwater? You guys don't have any water at all.
David JacquesHOST
What do you got, White Rock Lake? I mean, what the hell is that going to be? What the hell is
Steve WoodsHOST
that? We haven't had rain here in 47 days.
Steve WoodsHOST
I think it's been above 100 for like 47 days.
Craig MillerHOST
But this one scenario, it was so weird.
Craig MillerHOST
I'm at White Rock Lake, which is a lake in Dallas that has a 10-mile road around it, and that's where everybody goes to ride their bike in the middle of the city.
Craig MillerHOST
And anytime I pass somebody, I always say, good morning, or I wave.
Craig MillerHOST
I just want them to know this is not a hostile act.
