Screams heard in the Great Dismal Swamp
Account
The witness, working as a camp counselor, heard a loud unfamiliar howl-like call while walking back to her cabin late at night. The sound repeated about seven times over roughly 90 seconds and seemed to move closer and parallel her path, prompting her to run indoors. She later searched for physical sign without success and found the vocalization matched only alleged Sasquatch recordings she located online.
