Account
When the witness was about 10 years old, they accompanied a friend and the friend's mother to a small cemetery to visit a grave. After placing flowers, the group heard a crash at the woods edge and saw a large dark hairy creature standing behind the back fence about 50 yards away. The creature grunted and shuffled back into the woods, and the group quickly got in the car and left.
