The guest's father as a teenager drove to the family's rural property after nearby flooding and sightings. He saw a fast upright figure cross the road in three long steps. He stopped, lit a honeysuckle-covered bush with headlights and flashlight, saw a dark hand move and then stared face to face with the figure for minutes before it walked away.
