Vocalizations heard, creature seemingly attracted to bonfire

Account
During the summer of 1996 the witness was living in a trailer on a large rural property. One evening while at a large bonfire with others, after about 20 minutes a very loud screaming vocalization was heard from wooded lower ground. The sound seemed to circle the group and was perceived as upset by the fire yet moving closer. The witness later associated the sound with alleged Bigfoot vocalizations heard on television.
