Brushy Creek Hairy Man Spooky Fest
Location: Round Rock Event Date: 2020 Date: TBA
According to legend, the Hairy Man haunts the winding road along Brushy Creek. Many legends persist about the Hairy Man, but some believe he was an infant accidentally left behind by settlers heading west in the 1800s. Raised by wild animals in the fern bluffs, the Hairy Man viewed the creek as his own. He resented the intrusion of strangers into his territory and would jump out of the trees to frighten people away. Or, hanging from the leafy canopy above the road, he would drag his feet across the top of passing carriages. On one occasion, the Hairy Man attacked a horse-drawn wagon, spooking the horses. The old hermit was supposedly run over by the wagon and killed, and now his spirit lingers along the creek and road. Like many others have reported through the years, perhaps you will see him running behind your car late one night as you drive through the pitch black darkness of Hairy Man road. The Annual Hairy Man Festival celebrates the legend and is a family fun-centered event that raises money for many local charities and offers a full day of food, arts & crafts, children's activities, special performances, and live music all day. Also, there is a Hairiest Man contest which features a $500 cash prize this year.
