It has been a borderline breakthrough story for several years. More recent attention might be due to it's inclusion on an "urban legends" map (about half of which are either incorrect locations or wrong animal/character).

Who compiled that list?!? I can think of several MUCH scarier urban legends from Alabama than a haunted children's playground. Heck, that's not even remotely scary... if anything, it's kind of sweet and quaint.

Any where you've got a swamp and moonshine and/or weed you will have swamp creature sightings. I live near a large marsh nature preserve. Lots of creature lore.
Moonshine and/or weed aren't absolutely necessary; It's all fun & games and creepy fireside stories until you hear a cry in the woods at night that you've never heard before or something big takes off through the underbrush at your approach when you're not expecting it.

Now that the local residents have switched to heroin and meth, they tend to BE the creatures.
Well, yeah, there is that.
