15 September 2012 Heavener, Le Flore County, Oklahoma Class B #36643

Family has possible encounter at Cedar Lake Equestrian Camp

A group of four campers spent the evening at an equestrian campsite beside the forest. After hearing walking sounds and a faint scream-like sound, they watched nearby treetops shake violently while hearing cracking and rattling branches. The shaking then stopped abruptly leaving the woods silent, frightening the group into dousing the fire and going inside. A next-morning search found no footprints or fallen limbs.
