White giant ghost animal haunting Linwood tale endures
In Madison County lore the Linwood mill village near Anderson recalls a May night when a four times larger white beast loomed by the fence and howled like a dog under an East moon. Witnesses including Uncle Easom Riggs and his family saw the apparition, a shotgun waiting for it, and the terror that followed. The creature vanished after a single gunshot and has not returned, leaving a season of wary nights and kerosene lanterns.
