The Proctor Valley Monster is a folkloric story detailing a cryptid that lurks in Proctor Valley usually sightings tend to link the monster to the Proctor Valley Road that runs right through the valley, Southeast of San Diego County connecting the Chula Vista neighborhood of Eastlake to Jamul.[1]

Description

The cryptid's appearance is still debated with locals. Accounts vary but two of the most agreed upon versions of the creature say it resembles a tall, hairy, Bigfoot like appearance or a "disarranged cow" like bovine type.[2] The nearby Bonita Museum & Cultural Center claims to have an unknown humanoid footprint of a creature on display many locals attribute this as concrete evidence of the cryptid.[3]

The Proctor Valley Monster has inspired a comic book series produced by Boom! Studios titled "Proctor Valley Road" in which the cryptid is blamed for the disappearances of a group of students participating in a Ghost Tour of the road.[4]

The Bonita Museum & Cultural Center has hosted Film Festivals dedicated to celebrating the Proctor Valley Monster.[5]
