A series of sightings, screams, and smells near an abandoned strip mine
Account
Around 3 AM on a clear summer night the witness was at home when a relative came to the back door after being outside. The dog hid and whimpered and a foul odor was present. Both then watched a huge hairy biped about seven to eight feet tall walk slumped over out of the moonlit woods and through a neighboring yard.
