Account
Four teenagers arrived by truck to camp by a natural lake on a family farm in the evening. While lighting lanterns they heard an extremely loud, close, non-human vocalization. They left briefly but returned to spend the night, during which they were awakened by scratching on a screen. They went outside to check, saw nothing, and describe being intensely frightened.
