Lake Worth Monster Bash

Forty-two years ago, Fort Worth was abuzz with reported sightings of the Lake Worth Monster. Although the creature —described as a hairy, scaly 7-foot-tall man-goat-beast — hasn’t been seen regularly since that memorable summer of 1969, Fort Worth residents can attend Monster Bash to celebrate the local legend and the habitat he calls home.Activities will include hayrides, bison viewing, canoeing, a festival with vendors, food and games, monster-tracking hikes, guided interpretive hikes and storytelling. Music will be provided by The Skip Pullig Band, Barbara Taylor, and Joel McElhany. Author Ken Gerhard (“Monsters of Texas”) will give a free public lecture on the monsters of Texas.
