An even stranger legend is that of the Bishopville Giant. This being was said to have stalked the countryside in May of 1871. According to historian Ann Gregoire in her book History of Sumter County, South Carolina (1954):

The Sumter News described a monster in human form, about 30 feet tall, which walked through the night in Bishopville, plucking fence rails from the roadside. Around the neck was an iron chain from which hung a blacksmith’s anvil and sledge hammers, jangling as it moved, breathing like the wind in the tree tops and, at intervals, emitting sounds like the loud pouring of liquid from a bottle.
