A local environmental group has vowed to stop construction of a new Coweta elementary school, claiming the work will destroy the habitat of a Bigfoot-like creature known as the Happy Valley Horror.
“The Board of Education of Coweta County is going to build a new elementary school on Jim Starr Road and forever change our quiet country life,” said Michael Bright, head of the newly-formed group Save The Happy Valley Horror (STHVH).
“My concern is that this area is known to be the home of the infamous and rare Happy Valley Horror,” Bright said. “The Horror has been seen by several residents recently and is the only one known to exist. If this habitat is disturbed it will surely mean the demise of a truly unique part of Coweta County’s history. Please help us stop this travesty by alerting concerned citizens before it’s too late.”
The Horror was first reported in 2005 when a resident mailed the Times-Herald anonymously to say he had seen what he described as “an enormous, very hairy” beast walking upright in a field on Happy Valley Circle.
