Cryptid sighting near Lees Point, New Jersey (2017)

The father and his two sons drove to a marshy clearing in the afternoon to visit the legendary area. Across the marsh they saw a strange horse-like animal with a sloped back and split tail that appeared to move without advancing and had a shimmery mirage-like quality. While still at the car they heard an unexplained heavy voice from beside the vehicle.

Afternoon sighting while hiking at Mahlon Dickerson Reservation

While camping with two relatives, the witness hiked off-trail and circled back toward the campsite road. Looking back toward an upper trailhead, the witness saw a tall, bulky black figure walking from right to left and quickly out of sight. The witness then moved forward to the spot with the relatives and later compared the figure's size to a relative, estimating it much taller and wider.

Teens experience possible nighttime stalking & intimidation in Pemberton

In fall 2007 five young men walked into semi-dense woods at night and noticed a strong foul odor. Brush began shaking violently and with flashlights they saw broad shoulders moving through vegetation, then noticed something running down a hill and a large fallen tree that had been moved from its prior position. As they left the valley they again heard movement and saw a crouched figure shimmying through thick brush before fleeing the area frightened.

Possible sighting by motorist at dusk outside Livingston

On April 29, 2006 the witness was driving southbound on an unfamiliar road after leaving a mall when a deer bolted across the road in front of the car. A dark bipedal figure about six feet tall immediately followed in fast pursuit of the deer across the road and into trees and swamp on the other side. The entire chase lasted under 20 seconds, with exaggerated arm swing and speed that seemed exceptional for uneven terrain.
