Possible screams and stalking heard by seven campers out Newton
Account
Seven people were settled in a tent around 1 a.m. when they heard an indescribable scream from about a quarter-mile away. Shortly after, they heard the sound again much closer, estimated at about 50 feet behind the tent, and everyone froze. After the second scream the witness heard slow brush noises interpreted as something walking away.
