1995 after nightfall Mill City, Linn County, Oregon

Account

A group hiked into a lake to camp overnight several weeks after relatives had an uneasy visit there. After nightfall the group felt uneasy while a dog hid in a tent and refused to come out. They reported being harassed by screaming and having something thrown at them, then broke camp and left in the early morning.
