Man working with wrecker has late night encounter in Tennessee woods

1 September 2004 between 2 and 2:30 a.m. Pulaski, Giles County, Tennessee 2 witnesses

Account

Late at night the eyewitness went outside to work on a trailer and used a flashlight to check a noise. The light reflected off eyes on a nearby bank, revealing a large hair-covered human-like creature squatting a short distance away. The creature turned its head away from the light, and the eyewitness went back inside to call a relative. When the door was reopened, the creature was heard retreating through the woods while vocalizing.
