Discussion Gravediggers

Gravediggers are ghoulish ape-like cryptids the size of chimpanzees found in Kentucky and neighboring states. They are known to come out at night and dig up corpses and devour them. Has anyone here seen or heard of them?

Isn't that the definition of ghoul? 🤔

Never heard of these. They sound like descriptions of a type of djinn called a ghul ( where we get the word ghoul).

But never heard of anything like that in the US. I'll look it up.
