Is the Goatman a Satyr?

[Cap'n Gravelock]

Is the goatman from the urban legends/creepypastas a satyr or part of the satyr myths?

[Ramza00]

Satyr is a Greek myth.
Faun is a Roman myth.
Goatman is a what myth?

[Cap'n Gravelock]

Do you think the goatman creepypastas are based on the satyr myths?

I hope this made more sense...

Satyrs are actually ugly-ish men/males (especially randy ones) with horse tails. Not sure when the hooves and horns started appearing, maybe Hellenistic or Roman art? They aren't originally goats at all.
