The witness was sitting in his truck overnight at a wooded construction site monitoring a generator.

A tall figure stepped to the edge of the woods beside the truck, turned to face him, then walked back into the woods. He turned headlights toward the woods but saw nothing further.

Sasquatch sighting in Pennsylvania (2012)

The witness camped overnight in a remote meadow in northern Pennsylvania with two companions for field research. After a brief glimpse of something moving through camp, the group heard heavy circling footsteps at night, found campfire logs moved and the fire relit, and saw a shape run up the hillside. Frightened, they called other investigators for support, stayed awake until morning, then left quickly and the witness avoided the woods for months.

Young Woman Observes Large Biped in a Field east of Pittsburgh

The witness was sitting outside at night talking on the phone when she heard movement in nearby woods and then noticed a strange odor. She looked up and saw a very large, hair-covered figure standing in a field about 30 feet away. Frightened, she ran inside and locked the doors, and a family member found nothing that night with a flashlight. The next morning she and a relative found flattened grass, clearings, and tracks leading into the woods but were too frightened to follow them.

in February Pennsylvania #http://www.blogtalkradio.com/bigfoothotspot/2018/05/16/sc-ep434-strange-lights-in-the-woods

Eyeshine in Pennsylvania

The witness and a companion parked at a closed road on private property in February to look for strange lights previously reported there. After about twenty to thirty minutes they saw bright white-blue lights on a hillside that shifted to green and turned red when hit with a green laser, appearing single to the naked eye but double through binoculars and moving as if rising, shifting sideways, and blinking out and reappearing. A companion also reported a large moving shadow on another hill. The pair left while the lights were still present after feeling suddenly frightened.
