Humanoid figure spotted at night near Octagon Hall during paranormal investigation
Account
During a nighttime paranormal investigation, two people walked to a tree clump in open fields after hearing about a sighting the night before. After making whoop and howl sounds and hearing possible distant replies, they watched a tall dark human-like silhouette peer from behind a tree 30-40 yards away and sway side to side for several minutes. When they tried to approach, the figure disappeared, and checking the tree revealed nothing to explain what they had seen.
