Account

Two companions were walking in a rural area at night and noticed something following them for an extended distance while hearing movement in nearby brush. Only the companion reportedly saw the figure, described as a very tall biped that emerged from the tree line at close range. He did not mention it at the time and told the other walker about it years later.
