Resident hears screams regularly
Account
About a week after reported daylight sightings near Decatur, the witness sat on the back porch at home and heard an extremely loud, unfamiliar screaming vocalization from the hollow and creek bed below. The sound moved rapidly from left to front to right over about 30 minutes and continued after a short break, with dogs barking widely, and remained audible from inside the house. Around 9:30 the nearby screaming continued and a second distant vocalization answered, at which point the witness, being alone, went inside.
