Homeowner describes ongoing activity from a neighboring swamp and takes interesting photos outside Colfax

Around midnight on January 21, 2017 the witness was making calls from the front porch and received a wood knock response from across the street, which drew the dog into the woods. When the dog went quiet the witness entered the woods, beat on an oak and shouted for the dog, then heard knocks, chest-beating, howls, a bluff charge and a tree pushed over while seeing eyeshine. After the witness told the entity to back away, the dog returned and they went home.

Group of friends have possible late night interaction in an old rock quarry near Granite Falls

18 October 2010 Jacksonville, Onslow County, North Carolina Class B #32444

US Marine has a possible encounter with his deer kill outside Jacksonville

The witness shot a deer at dusk and dragged it toward his truck after dark. On the trail he saw a widely spaced pair of large eyes at about his own height that stayed after he fired a handgun into the ground, then left to the side through dense brush with loud crashing. He smelled a foul musky odor and found pushed-over vegetation where it left, felt watched while field-dressing the deer, and later found part of the carcass dragged about 300 yards.

Coon hunters shadowed for 20 minutes at night in Cardinal Marsh public hunting area

Three people with a dog were hunting raccoons at night along a deer trail when they noticed something following them. They used a spotlight to watch a large dark standing figure about 50 yards away with reddish eyes on multiple occasions over 15-20 minutes while hearing strange grunting. The dog stayed close and shook, and the group returned to the truck and left because they were scared.

Dog walker reports being paralled at night along dirt road near Sunrise Lake

The witness was walking a dog along a dirt road beside woods at night when a tall bipedal silhouette with orange-ish eyes was seen at the treeline. The figure paralleled the witness, stopping when the witness stopped, and was still visible across the road after the witness ran home. A relative looked but saw nothing, and no trace was found the next day.

September 1980 McCall, Valley County, Idaho Class B #58890

Memory told of a scary nighttime encounter with a tall, bright green-eyed animal while fishing at a mountain lake near McCall

Two companions fishing at a mountain lake got off the trail in thick brush on a very dark stormy night and noticed bright green eyes watching them from well above ground level. The figure with the eyes followed them to the lakeshore and then to their truck, staying in the trees and staring without sound or movement even when they charged toward it yelling. They backed away slowly, freed their stuck truck, and drove home, telling no one for years.

The visitors then made a loud vocal sound and left walking bent forward.

7 July 1976 Cumberland, Barron County, Wisconsin Class B #1432

Someone or something walks by house and peers from around a tree

As a child the witness was at home at night with siblings and a cousin when the doorbell rang repeatedly with no one there. An older brother became hysterical after seeing something peeking from behind a tree and gesturing, and later a neighbor arrived saying something had followed him in the woods. Two older girls then saw a dark form at the bottom of a trail that moved and had red eyes, and also something with a cone-shaped head peeking around a garage, and the younger children later saw a large figure pass by a window.

BFRO YEAR: 1973-74 Redding, Ca, Because French Gulch Was A Town Back In The Gold Rush Days Of Old California. People Still Live In The Area Of What Is Now Called French Gulch., Shasta County, California Class B #26381

Man recalls adversarial encounter with an unknown creature near French Gulch

During midnight rounds at an isolated school compound, the witness crossed a suspension bridge and heard something raiding trash cans by the cookhouse. He threw rocks toward a large dark figure under the eaves, which stood erect, stepped onto the bridge, dodged thrown rocks, vaulted the bridge cables and fled upstream on two legs. He noted glowing eyes and a foul stench, then returned to his trailer without anyone else responding.
