Footsteps near Wolfe County (1995)

Five teenagers camped overnight under a cliff overhang in the national forest. Around midnight they heard heavy bipedal footsteps approach and stop behind a large poplar tree below the camp. Two of them used flashlights to watch red eyeshine peeking from the tree, then the creature stepped fully into view for about ten seconds before retreating behind the tree and later leaving diagonally through the hollow making huffing sounds.

Footsteps near Wolfe County

On a third overnight stay with only three people including a skeptical peer, the group waited until about 2:30 a.m. The creature approached more quietly along the same path to the same tree, peeked out three times briefly showing an arm and eyes, then withdrew and left up the hollow. The skeptic was disappointed by the brief view and the witness decided not to return.

The witness returned to the same rock house about two weeks later and camped overnight. Around 1:30 a.m. the same heavy footsteps approached the same poplar tree, the creature peeked out a few times showing red eyeshine, then left without stepping fully out and without making much noise.
