Class B First-hand BFRO #25346

Possible late night sighting and activity at a home near Griffin

Winter 2009 around 1:00 AM Griffin Ga, Spalding County, Georgia 1 witness

Account

The witness stepped outside for a brief nighttime smoke break and noticed movement in the front yard. He turned to see the back, shoulders and head of a very large, hunched, hair-covered creature retreating behind bushes near a yard light. He could not see its face, legs or feet and later measured a nearby limb to estimate its height.
