Footsteps in Illinois (2015)
Account
After stargazing, the witness and her friend walked back toward their campsite along the road. For about half a mile they heard bipedal footsteps and branches breaking in the woods to one side, which stopped when they stopped and resumed when they walked. The witness shone a light and called out but saw only foliage, and the following stopped near the campground entrance.
