Class A First-hand BFRO #26448

Man describes history of incidents around his home outside Stanwood

BFRO YEAR: 2001--2008 evening, dark STANWOOD, WASHINGTON [Property Address Removed By MM], Snohomish County, Washington 1 witness

Account

In October 2006 on a dark evening, a relative was warming up and moving a car in the witness's front yard when the headlights revealed a tall bipedal creature with red eyes standing by a maple tree and rocking. The creature turned and ran into the forest, and the relative heard it moving through woods and then through water with an echo. A later retracing indicated the water was a large culvert under the main road leading toward an undeveloped green belt.
