Vocalization near Frederick County (2023)

Early morning his trained German shepherds froze and would not go outside. From the creek he heard an exchange between two distinct chimp-like voices arguing, which he had tried to elicit by playing Sierra Sounds.

Movement only near Frederick County

He has repeatedly seen white and blue orb lights moving through the backwoods over the creek, sometimes high in the canopy. Dogs tense but do not react as fearfully as with sounds, and his brother-in-law caught similar orbs on game cameras.

Wood knock near Frederick County

About a week later just after midnight he was woken by loud wood-knock-like banging. His normally reactive dogs lay flat silent with ears back, his hair stood up, and recording on a phone made it stop then resume farther away.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
