Man observes a bigfoot in his headlights near Holiday
Account
The witness was driving at night when headlights caught eye-shine at the edge of woods by a road curve. A tall hair-covered biped that had been walking out of the tree line stopped, stepped back into the brush, and watched the stopped car for about a minute to a minute and a half. After the witness called out, the creature moved further back and was heard running off into the woods.
