Woman recounts incident involving her father near town of Doyline on Lake Bistinue
Account
Late one evening in 1976, a neighbor arriving home reportedly found a large hairy dark man-like creature on his porch. The creature fled when headlights hit it and leaped over a six-foot fence. The neighbor's wife had been inside holding a pistol after hearing something pull on the screen door. The witness's father then saw the creature run and leap a wide creek, hearing a grunt on landing, before it disappeared.
