Couple hear loud screams near Cranbury. 15" long footprint (depression) found by couple in the same area.
After watching fireworks, the witness family drove north and heard very loud shrieking from a stand of trees. They turned back, stopped near the trees, and listened to repeated 4- to 5-second shrieks that sounded powerful and nearly human. Honking produced no change and the sound faltered then stopped after the witness shouted loudly twice, and it was not heard again on a later check. The source was not seen because it was dark and about 15 yards away at the far edge of the trees.
Night time sighting by New Brunswick resident near Lawrence Brook
Late on a Friday night in October 1969, the witness and a driver were sitting talking in a parked car near woods and a brook. The witness noticed two red eyes in the road ahead, and when headlights were turned on they saw a hairy bipedal figure that stood up and slowly waddled into the woods. The witness ran inside a house while the driver drove away, and later told the witness's mother about the sighting.
