Possible close encounter behind a home near Old Mystic village
Account
Around 5 p.m. the witness went into the yard behind his home after dogs barked and two deer ran past. About 20 feet away in swamp vegetation he saw only a long jet-black-haired arm pulling on plants. The individual gave a loud whoop that was answered from farther down the swamp. The witness briefly turned to check his house door and when he looked back the individual was gone.
