Nighttime sightings on Mescalero IR

The reporter woke about 3 a.m. and saw a tall black figure walking up the road near a street light, noticing a dead-like odor. After it passed behind trees, the reporter woke the mother and both watched its figure through trees in a ditch by the road. They described it as playing with a can or object lying by the road.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

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
