Manly Wade Wellman's Appalachian folk hero John the Balladeer with the most charmingly casual dismissal of even attempting to put an indescribable horror to words.

This is from the short story The Desrick on Yandro. The most recent edition of the John the Balladeer short stories in print is this one from Valancourt Books.
I absolutely love fhis story and fhis monster in particular. There is a fairly good short horror film about the Behinder (“The Hidebehind”) on YT by the director of “Smile” (but it occurs to me you have probably seen it)
