White screamer

There's a natural hollow in White Bluff, skirted by forest and deep Tennessee beauty, and back in the 1920s, a young family built their home on the land. The newcomers consisted of a father and mother, as well as seven little ones. It was the perfect family, and the perfect spot to begin again. Or so they thought. Finally, as the story goes, the young man became enraged with the violent night antics and took his gun into the woods in the middle of the night, yelling for and seeking this strange screaming creature. As he rounded the property, he realized the sound was becoming louder, more shrill, more...clear. It wasn't a screamer at all, his family had been hacked to pieces.

Description 

There is no definitive physical form to this cryptid but some say it looks kind of like the rake with a vertically oblong head and a massive mouth. Some say it is more of an apparition than a physical being.
