Lockridge, Jefferson County, Iowa
Account
As a child the witness took a younger brother to the outhouse at night and while swinging on the door saw a very tall dark-haired figure standing behind the outhouse. Only the upper part above the outhouse roof was visible in faint security light. She estimated it was much taller than an adult and about nine feet tall.
