Possible vocalizations and an approach to a residence outside Gainesville

31 December 2006 around 11pm at night Gainseville, Hall County, Georgia 2 witnesses

Account

Late at night the witness and a relative were indoors when they heard monkey-like hooting at the window and noticed vegetation moving outside. The relative went outside with a firearm and saw further movement near the end of the house while the witness heard grunting sounds near another window. The household dog ran to the relative but then whimpered, backed away, and refused to approach the side of the house. After a quiet interval, the two heard only distant noises when they went out again at midnight.
