The Fiskerton Phantom is an ABC-like creature sighted in
Fiskerton, Lincolnshire in the United Kingdom.
Sightings
It was first reported August 27, 1997 by four girls, between the ages 9 and 14 who were staying at a caravan park next to a pub at Short Ferry, a small hamlet next to Fiskerton. They described seeing a four-foot tall jet-black ursine-like creature eating a pheasant. The girls, scared, fled immediately to seek help in the pub. When they returned, they saw large paw prints. A motorist reported the beast again that evening, near where the girls saw the critter. On 2011, it was reported again various times.
In Popular Culture
The Fiskerton Phantom inspired Jay Stephens, creator of The Secret Saturdays, to create the character Fiskerton, a gorilla-cat hybridized creature.
