Ah-hoooo! Werewolves of Wisconsin: Why an Elkhorn legend refuses to die

A statue of a wolf-like creature is seen in the front yard of a home on Bray Road in Elkhorn on Oct. 24. The Beast of Bray Road was allegedly first seen in the area in 1936.
ELKHORN — Bray Road runs for 3 miles through Elkhorn. At the south, it begins not far from Lake Geneva. Enter off U.S. Route 12, curl east, and other than a slight jog, it’s pretty much a straight shot to State Route 11. Hence all the snaking peel-out marks left by amateur racers. Foliage rustles in the autumn wind here, and where there aren’t corn husks swaying, there are flat, lonely expanses of dirt where crops have been harvested.
Children eat cotton candy while looking at a wolf-like creature on display at Beast Fest in Elkhorn last month. The wolf-like creature allegedly was first seen in the area in 1936.
There are monsters among us. At least, that’s what some Wisconsinites believe.
