Three incidents in marshy zone outside Charleston next to Mississippi River
Account
The witness and a companion were bowfishing at night at a pump station when they heard high-pitched sounds. A spotlight then revealed a tall hair-covered figure about 25 yards away at the treeline, gripping a limb and watching them for under a minute. The figure grunted loudly and walked away steadily while breaking limbs in its path, after which the two left terrified.
