Possible nighttime encounters at a campground near Pine Flat Resort

13 September 2013 after 11 pm Pine Flat Resort, Tulare County, California 2 witnesses

Account

The witness and a companion were camping in tents in a largely deserted mountain campground. On two consecutive nights after 11 p.m. the witness heard strange sounds near his tent, including chatter, stone-like banging, cough-like and shushing noises, and a deep guttural grunt from about thirty feet away. On the second night small debris struck the side of his tent as if thrown. The companion confirmed hearing weird noises on the first night.
