On the day of May 7th of 1976, at the Green View Cemetery located in the village of Rosalind, Alberta. The Groundskeeper pulled up to the gates in his old GMC pickup truck and as he unlocked the gates to start his day of mowing ensuring it’s residents that they’re final place of rest west clean of trash. He started going through his list and began his job that morning. Though that morning wasn’t like any other he’d experience before or after. Cause, that day he was going to stumble across an anomaly.
While examining the grounds and tending to his duties one always sees some wildlife may it be a Prairie dog or Crow calling out to others. But on this day all was quiet, not a single bird in the sky or insect to be seen. Something felt off and it was something that couldn’t be explained.
But he couldn’t wait around and had a job to do. So as he unloaded the lawnmower and began to spruce up the place. He was overcome by the strange sense of being watched by someone, though it was too early in the morning and people don’t usually arrive at a cemetery that early, especially in a small community like that of Rosalind. He started working as he could smell a foul odour wafting through the air. Thinking that perhaps maybe there was a dead animal nearby, he stopped what he was doing, and began investigating the source. Soon, he reached the old iron fence and scanned the area only to find what he described as a large Deer behind the trees.
The two locked eye’s as resting in front of the creature was the mutilated body of a dog with its internal organs now external. Wet blood stained its hair and this is something you don’t see every day. Now, it has been recorded that Deer when desperate will turn to eat meat if only the odds of finding food are extremely low. Is this the reason why this had happened? Who’s to say.
As moments passed the Grounds Keeper was taken aback when the Deer rose up revealing it’s human like body. It let out a terrifying hiss like a Deer would if staring at someone or something that poses a threat. Without even blinking it picked up the corpse of the dog and without a moment to spare it turned around and bolted from the scene. This is the first account of witnessing the Deerman feasting. Let’s just hope that one day I’m not reporting a missing person who may be a victim of this foul smelling creature.
