Meet Glawackus, Glastonbury's own legendary beast

Glawackus is strange mix of panther, dog, and bear that was first seen near Glastonbury, Connecticut in 1939. The creature was heard screaming in the night and was blamed for missing livestock. A two mile long trail of footprints was found east of Glastonbury.

Through 1939 numerous hunts were organized to catch the beast. Local spelunking clubs explored many nearby caves, trying to find its den. A pair of special panther hunting hounds were brought in to try and find it. But Glawackus was never captured.

It reappears every few decades to scare a whole new generation of people.

See Glawackus at ”Anomalous Animals of the Americas” through October 23rd at Molten Java 213 Greenwood Ave (rte 302) in Bethel, CT.
