In this part of West Virginia, a hob gobbler is what people call a single male turkey that is either staring at you or acting in another eerie way. It is believed to bring bad luck in the same way as a black cat, although people don't take the bad luck aspect very seriously.
Sometimes hob gobbler is also used teasingly to describe someone who is acting like a misanthrope or loner.

"Oh lord, is that a hob gobbler over there at the edge of the bushes?" "Nah, see those two hens in the trees? He's probably just showing off for the ladies."

Get the hob nobmug. 1. noun - A human being that has such extraordinary goblin like qualities that the term 'goblin' alone doesn't do it justice. Hob goblins are just a tad creepier than your basic goblin, they tend to have a little stronger hitch in their getalong, a little stronger smell, etc. There's probably some perfectly natural explanation for the rampant existence of these types- poor nutrition, bad hygeine, and bad breeding in the first place.
"Have you seen that hob-goblin lookin' mother fucker that works at the sports bar? Hopefully he's not the one that makes the popcorn."
