Thomas Bay is a bay located in Southeast Alaska, located to the northeast of Petersburg. Baird Glacier drains into the bay, which is also known as the "Bay of Death" due to a massive landslide in 1750, which claimed the lives of hundreds of locals at the time. In the early 1900s, the region also earned the nickname of "Devil's Country", after several prospectors claimed to have encountered or witnessed "devil-creatures"—alleged to be a form of bipedal, ape-like humanoid, such as sasquatch (i.e. "Bigfoot").
Thomas Bay is named after U.S. Navy officer Charles M. Thomas.
