Memory told of seeing an unknown creature climbing a tree while driving between Marionville and Aurora
The witness was driving on a rural highway in late afternoon when she noticed a large dark figure under a grove of trees about 150 feet away. The figure appeared to be climbing, with an arm extended overhead gripping a branch and a leg raised. It kept its back to the road the entire time and was gone when the witness returned to the site moments later.
Fisherman has daytime sighting west of Mt. Vernon
The witness was fishing along Spring River in the evening and moved downstream around oak trees. He claims to have watched a single large, reddish-brown, hair-covered figure walk from the stream across an open field into the woods for several minutes. He did not follow it because he was alone, and a return visit the next day found no definitive footprints.
Motorist recalls possible early morning sighting north of Mt. Vernon
Around 1991 or 1992, the witness was driving home alone about 1 a.m. when an animal on all fours ran across the road and she braked to barely miss it. In a few seconds she noted its body was level rather than sloped, its legs were distinct without belly skin, and its lighter-colored hairless-looking face without a snout turned sideways to look at her. She heard nothing because the radio was on, and found no sign at the site the next day.
Two sisters witness bipedal animal walk through yard
When the witness was about 6 or 7 years old, she and her younger sister were playing inside their home and saw an upright hair-covered creature cross the yard in good light at dusk. The creature was about 100 feet away, looked toward them, and continued toward the woods and road area. Their mother did not reach the window in time to see it.
