Account
The witness and her husband had fallen asleep in their living room with the windows open. Around 2:30 am the witness awoke to extremely loud, deep and throaty roaring and screaming in short bursts, with a second less intense shriek heard within it. She tried to wake her husband while watching the window but reports no visual sighting. She describes the sound as uniquely terrifying and unlike anything she believes a person or animal could mimic.
