Footsteps near Cherokee, North Carolina (2024)
Account
While hiking alone near sunset, the witness heard steps that stopped when he stopped. After waiting, he continued on an overgrown trail and heard something pacing him about 15 feet away though nothing was visible. The woods went silent, then something close by laughed like a hyena, and it followed him until near the mountaintop.
