Account

The witness was riding on a school bus at night after a game when they noticed a tall, hair-covered figure standing in a corn field near a scarecrow. The figure was watched for several seconds as the bus passed about 75 to 100 yards away. Other passengers did not see it and laughed when the witness called out.
