Late night road crossing near Apollo

The witness was driving home late at night when a large manlike entity crossed the two-lane road in front of the vehicle in a few fast, smooth steps and disappeared into trees on the far side. The witness stopped, noting no other vehicles or people around, and heard it crashing through brush. The next morning the witness found a path of broken brush and trampled grass where it had crossed but no tracks.

Witness observes red eyes on a tall animal in the dark

Late on a warm clear night in July 1975, the witness heard a loud noise in the woods in front of the house. Looking out, the witness saw two very large red eyes positioned too high for a deer and heard slow heavy breathing. After retrieving a flashlight the figure was gone, and the next morning the ground at the spot was heavily trampled but with no clear prints.

Audio recording of possible screams, growls, and fight with a dog from the Late 70's near Prosperity

On a fall evening just before dusk, the witness, then a child, and the father were at their farm when the father heard a loud disturbance in a wooded valley below a field. The father took a tape recorder and walked toward the sounds of a loud growling/roaring creature apparently fighting a neighbor's dog while the child waited uphill by a feed trough. The creature was never seen because it was too dark in the woods, and the father returned uphill. The neighbor's dog was never seen again.

BFRO YEAR: 1985 - '87 McKean County, Pennsylvania Class B #3570

Loud scream heard by three witnesses.

Three bow hunters met in a field after dark while walking out. From a small woodlot about 70 yards away they twice heard a loud scream turning into a guttural growl with heavy breathing. One hunter briefly ran then returned, and the group left quickly after shining a weak light toward the sound without seeing anything.
