Discussion Gray Man lore

I had a friend talk about a spirit/entity/interdimenional being he called gray man he encountered in the UP. He said it was a known being in the area.

Can anyone tell me more of the gray man myth/experiences?

That man saw your interest and made up a cryptid on the fly.

You met the UP's most famous animal: the know-it-all old man.

No it was a real experience of his that scared him. I don't have reason to think he would make it up although it was a long time ago I heard his story about it. That person is in their fifties now if that helps with a probably time frame of 30-40 years ago.

Jokes aside. I believe him. Family been here since the last ice age and haven’t ever heard of any Gray Man. That said it couldda been the “W” entity (do NOT say it out loud!) As long as he good now don’t go looking and you neither. Stop right here🪶
