For six to eight months an elderly farmer and his wife reported nightly tapping that followed them room to room, shadows outside windows, a barn door torn open, missing dog food and missing outdoor dogs, and a low voice whispering the indoor dog's name.

The cast was later reported to show dermal ridges and to be considered authentic east of the Mississippi.
