Scream near Pikeville, Kentucky (2017)
Account
The witness and a fellow priest were in a lit open picnic area returning toward the building when they felt heavy stomping that shook the ground and heard a powerful scream-howl. Attempts to return to the building or cars triggered more screaming, grunting and felt vibrations, keeping them on a picnic table until sunrise. At sunrise they heard crashing and saw trees moving as something scaled a steep rocky hill incredibly fast, and a neighboring resident later said food offerings were left to calm activity.
