Midnight traveler watches upright creature cross road
Account
Late at night the witness was driving slowly uphill on the way home when a figure stepped into the headlights and crossed the road. The figure moved very slowly, did not look toward the car, made no sound, and disappeared after crossing. The witness was frightened and chose not to try to hit it because a young child was sleeping in the car.
