Account
The witness was walking home alone late at night along a rural road. He heard a loud, high-pitched scream from the woods that seemed to follow and close in on him as he hurried away. After the screaming stopped, he heard something tracking him from the roadside, marked by a metallic clanking sound and a loud branch break, prompting him to run home. He states he never saw what followed him.
