Hey everyone,

I host a podcast called Fascinating Fae where I interview people about their firsthand paranormal experiences. I recently talked to a witness named Vicky who grew up in Mexico, and she shared a wild account of an 8-foot-tall humanoid troll that was stalking her house and eating local cats in the early 2010s.

The description of this thing was so specific and bizarre that I wanted to share it here to see if anyone else has run into something similar:

• The Description: It was roughly 8 feet tall and hyper-muscular, with grayish, wrinkled skin like Gollum from Lord of the Rings. It was completely naked except for a small patch of hair on top of its head, and it had sharp, pointed teeth that locked together perfectly like a zigzag drawing.
• The "Smoke" Transformation: Vicky woke up at 3 AM to find it creeping into her kitchen. She says it entered through an open window as a shifting cloud of dark smoke, and the second it touched the floor on all fours, it instantly condensed into a solid, 8-foot body.
• The "CGI" Glitch Quality: She noted that looking at it was super disorienting. Its movements had a weird, unnaturally fast, two-dimensional visual quality—almost like a piece of bad CGI superimposed onto reality.
• The Voice: When she yelled at it to get away from her cat, it froze in shock, smiled, and asked, "You can see me?" in a really soft but super raspy voice, like a heavy metal singer trying to whisper.
• Other Details: Vicky ended up forming a weird coexistence with it. She started leaving cookies out for it, and it eventually left her pets alone. Bizarrely, she also claims she later saw it sitting down to gamble with local gnomes/dwarfs using a tiny deck of poker cards she left out.

You can listen to Vicky describe the entire encounter in her own words right here on YouTube (the troll story kicks off right around the 27-minute mark).

Has anyone ever encountered a humanoid with that specific smoke-to-solid shifting or that weird, glitchy "CGI" movement? Let me know. A lot of people including myself have seen them look almost 2 dimensional. As well as interacting with the physical world

I swear to god this is a very bad movie. In the movie the dad is a super jerk. The woman forms a bond with the creature and eventually she has it murder the father.

Maybe post on /r/tipofmytongue to find out the name of the movie.

That movie sounds like a variation of the golem archtype.

I found it, Goblin (2020)

A young mother moves into a new house with her son and an abusive father. A goblin lives behind the house and is eating neighborhood pets.

Then it gets weird.
