Ohio Orange Eyes Monster

I recently received the following report about an Orange Eyes Monster in Ohio.  I am putting it in the category of "Urban Legend". 

Hello, Chris

Thank you for asking me about the orange eyes monster. I will
give you the legend of the creature's first appearance. FORGIVE me there are
no pictures because the creature is infamous and you cannot find this
creature anywhere. I am going to be a scientist on BIGFOOT CREATURES for the
future and I am 17 years old right now and I love studying BIGFOOT creatures.

The legend of the Orange eyes monster dates back to 1959.  It is an 11 foot
tall, 1,500 pound bigfoot type creature that is said to live in Central Ohio
on a lonely road named LOVER's LANES.   The creature does not have a stench like
some other type bigfoot creatures have. This creature is assumed to be a
carnivore. Orange eyes has orange glowing eyes that you can spot the creature
from miles away. The creature first appeared March 28, 1959 when 3 teenagers
saw a huge hairy monster rise out of the ground fog at the CHARLES MILL
RESERVOIR near MANSFIELD.

Then 4 years later the giant appeared again and this time it was
witnessed by several people. There are been organized search parties to find
and kill the beast but people never managed to find the beast.  

Scientists suggested that Orange eyes lived in a tunnel in CLEVELAND'S RIVER side
cemetery which was assumed to be the abode of the huge creature for 25 years
where the beast lived in peace. Until the 1940s-1960's highway construction
destroyed the tunnel that orange eyes was living in forcing the creature to
live in a stretch of forest where it remained hidden. Teenagers invaded the
creature's habitat on APRIL 22, 1968 and children spotted the beast and
chased it armed with flashlights, baseball bats and ropes but this creature
is indestructible because many people have shot, stabbed and driven over the
beast but none of these attacks hurt the creature. It would take a really
big animal to take on this creature. When the children chased the creature
they never managed to find it. June 1991 Orange eyes appeared again and this
time the monster charged past 2 people fishing near Willis Creek, terrifying
the 2 people before it disappeared.

      If you wanted to look for this creature then you would have to park
alongside a remote and rarely trafficked road in an area with dense
concealing foliage like Ruggles Road near Blue Bridge but it would be best to
find the creature at night because that way it is much easier once arrive at
the area where the creature has been seen then you will see the creature's
glowing eyes but the beast may appeared only to be curious.

      Beware,  some people think that the orange eyes monster is no monster
only some crazy hermit manufacturing Orange eye's trademark by nailing two
round orange bike reflectors to a stick,  teenagers using Christmas tree
lights, flashlights,  and torches to frighten one another. Other witnesses of
the Orange Eyes monster say it is an illusion of 2 automobile reflectors nailed to a
stick and others said that the story of the beast is kept by local practical
jokers who use automobile reflectors, Christmas lights or other sources of
illumination to create the illusion of glowing orange eyes.

I hoped that you enjoyed the orange eyes monster legend. thanks again
