Account

After work the witness went to a wooded park to test camping gear and fish in the river. While fishing the witness heard loud knocking sounds, a loud moan-like wail, and a large splash from an unseen heavy object thrown into the water nearby. The witness knocked back with no reply and felt watched while returning to the vehicle, where a jogger said he had also heard the knocking.
