In May of 1967, Frank Hansen first exhibited in the midwest, his strange creature frozen in a block of ice. It was preserved in a refrigerated coffin, and the coffin lid was made of glass. Though the ice was partly cloudy, it was clear enough to identify the creature as neither ape nor man, but a curiosity that was half-way in-between. This “man thing” was almost completely covered in dark hair, except for the face, the soles of his feet, and the palms of its hands.
