Shortly after this sighting stories of missing pets and livestock began, along with more sightings of the creature in the area. She also noted that it was also very muscular and thin. It stood on its hind legs at about 6 feet tall, and had pointy ears, a flat snout, and a long thin tail. It was covered with short sleek black fur. She described the creature as a monkey-wolf hybrid type creature. The creature then walked off not seeming to notice the woman or her car. The time was about 2:30 in the morning when suddenly a creature leapt across the road and in front of her car. She described the area as being very dark and remote. She was delayed a bit having to take a detour through a two lane road south of Roanoke Virginia. ![]() A woman from Ohio was driving through South West Virginia and the Roanoke area one stormy night on her way to the Outer Banks in North Carolina. There were several sightings of these creatures in South West Virginia, one of the more famous took place in 1994. ![]() It caught my attention because a lot of the incidents occurred very close to where I spent the first few years of my life growing up near Roanoke Virginia. ![]() I first heard of the Virginia Devil Monkey while reading the book “Monsters of Virginia: Mysterious Creatures in The Old Dominion” by L.B.
