Sasquatch sighting in South Carolina (1998)
Account
The guest was driving his Jeep at night near his hunting spot when a deer bolted across the road. A huge black hairy creature launched off a ridge and chased the deer on all fours across the road into a valley. As the deer neared the treeline, the guest saw the outline of a second, larger creature standing upright as if waiting in ambush.
