Man recounts boyhood sighting at home near Jigger

On a clear sunny afternoon the witness as a child was playing in the woods behind the house with a relative and a companion when they heard something large breaking limbs and fled to the yard. From the yard about 300 yards away they saw a tall black man-shaped figure standing between trees at the woodline watching them until they went inside. The figure was described as about seven feet tall, muscular with long arms and a pointed head.

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
