Possible whistles heard by campers north of Sault Saint Marie

August 2004 around 11 p.m. Sault Sainte Marie, Ontario 6 witnesses

Account

A group camping at a remote lakeside beach camp was sitting around the fire around 11 p.m. when they all heard an eerie, tune-like whistling from the pitch-dark woods. They moved out of the fire glare to look and shone a light toward the sound, after which it stopped with no source found. The witness's dog showed no reaction, and no further activity occurred that night.
