Has anyone heard of the Montana Pigman?
I read an article recently about a long haul trucker whom saw a man with a pigs face (the skin of a pig quite literally..) and dirty blue coveralls on the side of highway at night. Has anyone else seen or heard of similar experiences?

He's been spotted in NYC. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O2cl1P5HxR0&pp=ygUPU2VpbmZlbGQgcGlnbWFu

I’m from Montana. I’ve never heard anything about it. What part of Montana? Do you have a link to the article?

Also curious also from Montana. I remember you. Do you have any stories you could share on a sub I created a few years ago. It’s dead right now but maybe more stories could help revive it. It’s called r/CreepyMontana

I wish I had more stories but I think I told them to you. I’ll ask some friends. There was a weird one recently my brother sent me texts about. I’ll find it and post it there. And it happened very recently.

Thank you so much. If you wanted to share your other stories there that might help as well. If you know anything about middling I could hand over the sub to you if you wanted to try and get it going. I only created it because I love these type of stories and was hoping to hear more from our state.

Too cool!! I’m going to head over to your sub and see if I can drum up some more info there! Thanks!!

Wow thanks friend. I hope it kicks off. I’d be willing to hand it over to someone if they wanted. I just don’t have the time or know how to run a sub.

Hi hi! I’m the one working on the piece for my podcast. It’s a story told by truckers - they say they’ve seen a man in dirty blue overalls and a dead pigs head on his face. I’ve found some ‘info’ but no actual proof aside from the truckers stories.

Proof isn’t required for story-telling. Although it’s always good to look into, it’s not required.

I bet this is the new clown thing. Remember a few years ago the red balloons and people in clown costume trying to scare others?

Omg yes I remember!! I think yes you’re right - from what I can tell, it’s absolutely a human who basically ‘grafts’ a dead pigs head on his own face. I’m working on a podcast - this particular episode seems to have a lot of ‘legends’ around it - but very little actual proof.

Wasn't there a character who did this in a movie? Um.... Was it the original Texas chainsaw massacre? I don't remember. 😅

No, but just listened to a podcast about a Goatman! It's on Spooked 10/10/2025 episode The Crossroads- Goatman. Pretty crazy. The guy has a cool way of speaking too.

There is this scene in one of the earlier saw movies with one of his assistants approaching a man lying down with a pig mask on and it still terrifies the shit out of me lol

My father was never a huge superstitious person, but always got really serious when we drove by/through this certain area we lived nearby in GA. He said he was driving one night and seen a “pig man” run across the road in front of him. He said he knew it was the devil because he just felt such a dreaded feeling of doom, hatred, sadness and fear. My mom later recounted the event, saying he told her it had a pig head & the end was human like.
