No matter what person has "seen" the demon, it always has distinct glowing eyes. In sightings where there was a flash light, head lights, or no lights involved at all, there are always the large glowing eyes. ]]> 2021-10-25 14:19:14 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841837197 William Barlett John Baxter rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841853644 William, the 17-year-old student was one of the first people along with his friends claimed to see a creature in the woods of Dover, Massachusetts.]]> 2021-10-25 14:23:28 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841853644 Abby Brabham rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841858703 Abby the next day had said that she saw a large creature in around a 2 mile radius of William Baxter that was incredibly similar to how he stated it. ]]> 2021-10-25 14:24:41 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841858703 The Drawings rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841874864 William and Abby were asked to draw a sketch of what they saw and it was scary how similar the two drew the figure. William drew a more in-depth sketch of the figure and show it with a watermelon-styled head with a bean-shaped body and long lanky legs with four fingers and toes. William wrote on the paper, ”I, Bill Bartlett, swear on a stack of Bibles that I saw this creature".

Most say that the creature stood at around 3 and 1/2 feet tall with a large head and slender body. As claimed before the large glowing eyes stood out the most to all of the people in the sightings. ]]> 2021-10-25 14:34:40 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841897049 1 rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841907393 Dover, Massachusetts population is around 7,000 which is crazy based on the popularity of the creature]]> 2021-10-25 14:37:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841907393 2 rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841910292 The locations of all the sightings on a map form a straight line, many people find this weird and peculiar. ]]> 2021-10-25 14:38:06 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841910292 3 rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841913500 Around the first sighting many people began to see things around the area but in recent years, there has been very minimal sightings. ]]> 2021-10-25 14:39:00 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841913500 Explanation rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841918931 As reason years there has been little to none sightings anymore and most people are beginning to believe it was a hoax and believed that this was just a plan by a couple of high schoolers, nothing more nothing less. ]]> 2021-10-25 14:40:27 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1841918931 Alternate Outcomes rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1842118889 People believe that the kids might have just seen an animal on its hind legs, nothing more than that, but William Barlett disagrees and claims that there was no chance it was an animal because of the distinct eyes and long lanky fingers. ]]> 2021-10-25 15:34:44 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1842118889 rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845072342 2021-10-26 14:00:37 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845072342 Important rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845087468 Something to note about the Dover Demon is majority of the time the Demon will scale on top of walls and will be spotted sitting on them. ]]> 2021-10-26 14:04:36 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845087468 rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845101289 The Dover Demon has many people skeptical on the reality of the creature, but some parts of the story adds up. People have believed the kids stories as years prior there was a case where an adult named Mark Sennott had said he saw creature much like this one and reported it. The case wasn't quite big enough for these kids to hear about it and there stories lined up with Sennott's very well, almost too well. ]]> 2021-10-26 14:08:22 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845101289 Today rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845101858 We still don't know much about the creature as sightings are very minimal. People don't quite believe it isn't real yet as things happen like this around Dover, Massachusetts very often. The Dover Demon has been in a few video games and comic books to this date as it has became a small legend. Most famously the Dover Demon is in the book "The Dover Demon" by Hunter Shea which is a horror fiction based on the sightings of the Dover Demon. ]]> 2021-10-26 14:08:30 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845101858 Video Clip rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845133909 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWcULDL50wY]]> 2021-10-26 14:16:52 UTC https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845133909 Citations rdebello24 https://padlet.com/rdebello24/3kffr4xi4mvrsl4r/wish/1845136586 https://allthatsinteresting.com/dover-demon - Source 1
