Girl sees creature while picking blueberries. It follows when she screams and flees
Account
A young girl picking blueberries alone near dark felt watched and saw a figure crouched in the patch that slipped into brush. Moments later she saw a very tall, hair-covered, man-like figure by a tree that ducked behind it, then followed her at a distance as she ran home screaming. Her relatives later searched the site armed and reported matted brush with a bad odor.
