Footsteps near Svensen, Oregon
Account
The witness and her mother let their two dogs out at night and heard something trudging through waist-high blackberry bushes with heavy boom-like footsteps and deep heavy breathing steadily approaching them. The dogs stayed on the porch terrified with tails tucked and hackles up instead of chasing. The mother hurried them inside and locked the door.
