Hurricane, West Virginia - Water Monster's Daughter

On Main Street in Hurricane, West Virginia there is a large boulder with a carving of a young, slightly deformed, girl. Locals call it "Water Monster's Daughter." I was told that it was found nearby when some property was being cleared for a car dealership. Some people say it was carved by local Indians but others say it was a hoax that started in the 1940's.
