The Beast of Tunbridge Wells or the Kentish Apeman is a cryptid reported by the residents of the county of Kent, England (presumably in and around the town of Royal Tunbridge Wells). The apeman is described as a bigfoot-like creature that is 8 feet tall, with demonic red eyes and long arms.

Sightings[]

The Kentish Apeman was first spotted on the town's common during World War II 70 years ago.

A man called "Graham S" told a story of how an elderly couple saw it in 1942. Writing for the community website Tunbridge Wells People, he said: "They were sitting on a bench when they became aware of a 'shuffling noise' behind them. Upon turning around they saw a tall, ape-like creature with eyes that were burning red moving slowly towards them. They both fled - terrified."
