Account

The witness was sitting outside on a warm late evening visiting with his father when he heard steady bipedal-sounding footsteps descending the steep wooded hill behind the house. The sounds grew closer to the treeline, stopped and shuffled briefly, then returned up the hill until out of earshot. The witness saw no light and heard no voice, and his father heard nothing.
