Woman and daughter recall their close daytime encounter at their home east of Elkins
In January 2005 the witness walked to meet her young daughter at the school bus in the afternoon. Upon returning toward the house they saw a tall brown man-like figure standing motionless by the porch and staring. They watched it from ground level and then from the upstairs porch while the child tossed pebbles, but it did not move. They went inside without seeing it leave, and overnight snow covered any possible tracks.
Sightings by two hunters in tree stands outside Elkwater
The witness was deer hunting from an old tree stand on a mountain crest in the morning and dozed off. A strong odor and rustling woke the witness to see a small reddish-brown hair-covered biped below eating discarded fruit. A much larger black hair-covered biped then approached vocalizing, the two interacted and appeared to notice the witness before leaving, and a hunting companion nearby also reported seeing a large upright figure moving fast through trees.
Daytime sighting between Pocahontas and Imboden
The witness was in the yard when the dog barked at something on the ridge road about 200 yards away. The witness saw a bipedal creature stop, come downhill toward the yard, and break through an electric fence before looking around and walking quickly away over the hill. Later the witness returned with a parent to search but found no footprints because the ground was very dry.
