The Nain Rouge – Detroit, MI

The citizens of Detroit truly subscribe to the idea of the Nain Rouge. They have claimed to see this creature during the worst disasters. Its first appearance was in 1805 during a fire that leveled the entire city. The next sighting was 1968 during horrible riots. After that, it was spotted in 1976 during an ice storm that ravaged the city. Every year, the city hosts a banishment parade to keep it from returning.
