Woken by crashing and the dog barking, the witness heard a juvenile on the porch beating the deck and plucking the air conditioner while an adult gave gibberish instructions and the juvenile answered with tongue clicks. Then something wailed on the dog box. In the morning he found a twisted tree, shredded sapling and tracks and made a cast. With a flashlight he saw something large and black moving up the hill.

While squirrel hunting on the upper ridge, the witness heard his dog barking and whimpering from the swampy ravine bottom, though the dog was chained at home. He listened about 20 minutes, realized it was a perfect mimic, did not go down, and heard a tree knock as he left. The dog was fine at home.

Whoop in Ohio

About a month after a nearby sighting made the papers, the witness played internet sounds with friends as a joke. After about 45 minutes they heard knocks, whoops, growls and had pebbles and rocks thrown at them. On the hill they saw eyeshine that ducked into grass, heard something following them, and later rocks hit the deck and porch.

Sasquatch sighting in Ohio

The witness, then a child, arrived home at night when car headlights lit a large hairy figure standing at a mowed corridor into the woods. He got out for a better look while puppies cried nearby, his sister joined him, then his father shouted for them to stop and the figure crossed the opening and thrashed away loudly. The next day they found puppies in the woods and knocked-down vegetation with limbs broken high up.

After he lowered his bow the female left downhill where a loud pop and crashing was heard, and a healthy snapped tree was photographed the next morning.

Rock throwing in Ohio

Two relatives were bass fishing from a small boat when rocks were thrown toward them. After beaching, one threw rocks back, the creature screamed, stepped out, charged and struck one man hard enough to break ribs and puncture a lung, then threw a log that cut his chin. It reappeared swaying and clicking, then leapt a great distance and ran off on all fours. Authorities and later visitors called it a bear and told them to leave it alone.

Howl in Ohio

Alone awake late at night the witness twice heard a very loud distant then nearby sound that began as a low roar and morphed into a long howl. The sound felt physically overwhelming and caused shaking, tears and a sense of helplessness. Afraid to look out the dark window, the witness got into bed and stayed alert without further sound, later feeling a documentary recording called the Ohio howl closely matched it.
