Class B First-hand BFRO #23537

Possible camp stalking and strange sounds heard near Moore's Hill

August 1982 day and night Moores Hill, Dearborn County, Indiana 4 witnesses

Account

Four boys were camping behind a house on a wooded hilltop above a creek drainage. During the day they heard loud, repeated bird-like and chimp-like calls approaching to within a few dozen yards, accompanied by movement in the brush, which visibly unsettled one companion. That evening they heard whistling calls across the camp for about an hour, and after most fell asleep the awake brother heard someone approach from the creek side and stand at the camp edge breathing heavily before leaving.
