Nighttime encounter near Sinnemahoning, off Montour Run Road
Account
Late one night at a remote hunting camp, the witness and two companions saw a tall grayish-brown bipedal creature step onto the porch and try to kick in the front door. The creature then ran around the back of the camp and gave an extremely loud yell or scream that woke others in camp. The witness described it as walking on hind legs and having hands rather than paws.
