Account
Around 1980-81 the witness was hiking with two companions in an overgrown pasture and smelled a strong stench in an abandoned trailer. Later near a forked canal, the witness saw a brownish entity with a humanoid head across the canal that raised its arms as they approached. The group was frightened, ran home, and did not return for years.
