Wood knock near Rivesville And Jordan, West Virginia

Two relatives heard loud knocking on one side of the woods and intense screaming on the other while mushroom hunting, with sounds escalating as an engine started and movement crashing toward them before stopping.

BFRO YEAR: 1978-79 Marion County, West Virginia Class A #1201

Drain pipes knocked down after strange howls/screams were heard

The witness reports that during winter 1978-79 the household repeatedly heard loud howls and screams late at night around their rural home. Drain pipes around the home were knocked down and many large human-like footprints were found. The tracks were later destroyed by the witness's father, and the witness interprets the sounds and tracks as a Sasquatch passing through.

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
