We've all looked under our beds to see if we may be unknowingly keeping a monster in our midst. You never saw one though, no matter how many times you looked. Every time you bent down and looked under your bed, you always came up monster-less. So, why did you think that they would want to be under your bed in the first place? Monsters don't like to live under beds anymore than you do. If you want to see a monster, you should go to places that they love to hang out. This article will discuss some of their favourite haunts.

Imagine you are in your house kneeling down with all of the lights out, peering out of your bedroom window. Out among the trees, through the darkness two glowing red eyes are staring back at you from the distance. Then in a split second they start rushing toward you and crash through the window that you were gazing out of. That would get your attention and everyone else's also wouldn't it? Fout Arkansas is where the FOUT monster lives. This remote section of Arkansas is spooky, very spooky. After driving through a particular area, I felt as though I was being watched by something. It was an eerie feeling. Later I knew that it was because I had been in close proximate-y to Fout Arkansas and the woods have real monsters residing in them. The fout monster is sort of a big foot type creature that attacks on occasion. It is not as shy as the pacifist big foot. The Fout Monster has attacked houses on more than one occasion and scared the hell out of the occupants. So don't look under your bed if you live near Fout Arkansas, some glowing red eyes may be looking back at you!!

So many states have their local monster legends. In Tennessee, there is the Tennessee Wyooter. Now don't ask me what a Wyooter looks like. And don't ask any of the locals either. I have never heard a good description yet of a Wyooter, but the locals say it is around in these here hills! They hear it's screams in the valleys late at night on occasion. Some say it has wings and most people don't say anything about what it looks like. So if there is a Wyooter, how would we know if we saw one? I may have had a few beers with a Wyooter and never knew that they were a Wyooter! I don't know about this Wyooter stuff. Let's move on to other monsters. I think it is safe to look under your bed in Tennessee until we know what a Wyooter looks like.

The famous New Jersey devil. That is an interesting one. Now this one woman was in labour and was having some type of problems at the time. I believe that she made some statement about how she didn't want the child or something to that effect. She may have made some pact with the devil himself, I don't know, but she gave birth to this thing, which grew almost instantly after it was born. It turned and killed it's mother, and of course the midwife was watching the whole thing happen. After it killed it's mother, it flew out of the room with it's wings.. If you ever see pictures drawn of the New Jersey Devil, it looks like a perverted horse of a figure with bat wings and a strange body. Now c'mon you Jersey devils, Have ya been in the scotch a bit? If you live in New Jersey, feel free to look under the bed.

How about the Carolina Gator Man? Now this one actually has physical proof to back it up! There was a local sheriff deputy that had a run in with the Gator Man. He claimed he was driving his patrol car out in the country when this thing came out of the brush and hit his car. He showed the damage to the vehicle, and the press picked up on it too. This was years after the initial sightings that got everyone excited when two younger people had a run in with it in a similar manner. So if the gator man is there, don't look under your bed if you live in the Carolinas either.

What about bigfoot then? Bigfoot is spotted all over the place it seems. He hangs out mostly in the western U.S., but has been seen out east too every now and then. Oregon, Washington, California, Missouri, Colorado, Ohio, and many other places may have bigfoot in the area. There have been so many things said about bigfoot, so I won't dwell on him too much. If you live in any bigfoot hangout areas, go ahead and look under the bed, as he wouldn't fit under it well anyway.

Then there is the famous alien to put up with. Do they qualify as monsters? Some would say that they do. Trouble is they are seen everywhere! They don't hang out under your bed though, they do hang out at the foot of your bed and stare at you with those big dark eyes. Then they take you on a fun journey to their little space ship. So if you live anywhere at all, don't look under the bed! Hide under the bed instead so that the aliens that are at the foot of the bed don't see you! Then, when you are under the bed, YOU will be the monster under the bed! OH NO!!! Bet you didn't think that this article was going to end up with YOU being the monster under the bed.. That just goes to show you though, it's an odd place out there sometimes...Gtars said it.
