The Billiwhack Monster is a creature said to haunt the hills near Santa Paula, California. First reported during the 1950s, the monster allegedly resides in or around the ruins of the old Billiwhack Dairy. According to local lore, a former military scientist who owned the dairy was connected to the OSS, the precursor to the CIA. The OSS allegedly had the owner of the dairy, August Rubel performing experiments beneath the dairy, and one of these secret projects involved attempts to create a super-soldier. Legend has it that one of these experiments went horribly wrong resulting in the creating of the Billiwhack Monster, a hulking, half man/half goat covered in dark fur, standing over seven feet tall, with immense strength and glowing eyes. During WW2 Rubel was sent abroad where he died. The family supposedly abandoned the property, leaving the monster to roam free and torment visitors. Sightings of the Billiwhack Monster are still reported – is there really a human experiment running free and harming locals? Or is this all an urban legend meets conspiracy theory stemming from the general distrust of the government during this time period?
