From the goatman wiki page-
Appearance
Typically, witnesses describe the Goatman as being a tall fur covered hominid with a human torso and arms, the horns and hind legs of a goat, and a quasi human face.It is similar to the Lake Worth Big foot but is reportedly more goat-like, and less human, in appearance.
Witnesses have reported hearing the Goatman calling out using a series of high pitched squeals.
History
Reports of the Goatman began in 1957, with sightings occurring in Upper Marlboro and Forestville, Prince George's County, Maryland. From there, sightings spread to other states; with reports of the Goatman being made as far south as Texas in the 1960s, Washington and California during the 1980s, and as far north as Ontario, Canada, during the 1990s
Alleged sightings now been reported in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Florida, Kentucky, Michigan, Oklahoma, Oregon, Washington. The largest concentration of these sightings has been around Bowie, Maryland.
Urban Myths
Since the 1970s, the Goatman has become the subject of a number of popular Urban myths in Maryland and beyond. Myths vary, but the Goatman preying on courting couples in a similar fashion to the Hook legend, or attacking cars parked at the side of the road, are both common themes. It has also become part of the Urban Legend of “Crybaby Bridge” (Governor’s Bridge Road, Prince George's County). Florida sightings are sometimes attributed to the Skunk ape, another Florida myth.
Urban Myths often put secret genetics programs forward as a possible source of the Goatman. Experiments by the Federal Government and the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center, Maryland have both been suggested as possible Goatman origins. There is no evidence to support either.
Recently it has been rumored that there has been a sighting of the goatman in Ann Arbor, MI
Also, try googling cryptozoology and the goatman!

The Goatman is a Homonid cryptid reported to be living in the United States of America. It is a Hybrid creature; part man and part goat. Some claim it is a relative of Bigfoot. Its appearance is similar to the satyrs of Greek mythology (of which Pan is one), the Devil, and the horned men seen in cave paintings.
The Goatman of Maryland is often associated with Governor’s Bridge Road, Lottsford Road and Fletchertown Road, in Prince George's County, and with the nearby Glendale Hospital; the former site of a state asylum. It has reported to have attacked a number of witnesses and to have damaged property. It has also been reported to have killed family pets.

there is no longer something in Salisbury. heavily. no longer something. Ocean city is about 1/2-hour away, which isn't too undesirable, even though it receives crowded with travelers in the course of the summer time. Assateague Island is an similar distance from Salisbury. each and every thing closes up early. that's particularly no longer that massive of a city. that's smells of chickens reason that's all there is over the following. they have a baseball stadium that typically has video games. there's a museum of wildfowl artwork. -_- meaning it really is a museum of carved birds. there's a small mall that has a movie theatre and a library in it. Yeah, a library contained in the mall. that's thrilling there. So... yeah... no longer a lot to do in Salisbury. i recognize. I lived the following for 2 years. -_-
