Rural resident hears prolonged vocals near Lumby

8 August 2008 around 2:00am Lumby, British Columbia 2 witnesses

Account

Late at night the witness was awakened at home by an unfamiliar high-pitched, two-toned scream repeated with pauses. She listened from an open window and woke her son, who also listened and said he had never heard such a sound. The sounds were heard at a distance and eventually faded toward the other side of the valley.
