Couple have possible daytime encounter in the Pine Barrens near the town of Brown Mills

The witness was driving away from a bridge area after photographing water when she glimpsed in her rearview mirror a brown bipedal figure sprinting and leaping across the road behind the car. Her husband did not see it but reported hearing crashing through woods and a splash as they backed up. Shortly after while driving on they heard a repeated wuh / huffing noise, stopped to check under the vehicle, and found nothing.

Possible intimidation in the Pine Barrens

The witness visited a pine forest site three times in the early morning. On the first visit he heard heavy footsteps retreating, smelled a skunk-like odor, and saw a rock thrown into water. On later visits he heard loud repeated calls and low moans, heard footsteps approach to within about 15 feet without seeing the source, had a large stick thrown near him, left food and recorded vocalizations, and noted indistinct footprints and large broken trees.

July 2000 Cranbury, Middlesex County, New Jersey Class B #1452

Couple hear loud screams near Cranbury. 15" long footprint (depression) found by couple in the same area.

After watching fireworks, the witness family drove north and heard very loud shrieking from a stand of trees. They turned back, stopped near the trees, and listened to repeated 4- to 5-second shrieks that sounded powerful and nearly human. Honking produced no change and the sound faltered then stopped after the witness shouted loudly twice, and it was not heard again on a later check. The source was not seen because it was dark and about 15 yards away at the far edge of the trees.
