Eyeshine in Indiana

In darkness the witness walked a logging path to his tree stand while two sets of eyeshine paralleled him side-by-side for a long distance. When he switched on white light at about 15 feet the eyes rose to about seven feet with a bark-like grunt, then vanished. From the stand he watched one taller and one smaller eyeshine peek from behind a tree until a neighbor's vehicle lights approached, when they crashed away loudly through the woods.

Whistle in Indiana

On early mornings before work the witness repeatedly heard bird-like chirps and whistles around his house. On one morning he heard a chirp near the house answered about 20 yards out in the cornfield. He did not realize the significance until later after listening to reports of similar sounds.

Sasquatch sighting in Indiana

While hauling a refrigerated load north at night, the witness pulled onto an exit ramp to check a temperature alert and began diagnostics on the trailer. The witness noticed a musky odor and breathing, turned on cab work lights, and found a tall hairy face leaning in within a few feet. When the trailer engine kicked on, both were startled, the creature slapped the unit hard enough to break fiberglass and then ran across a field with heavy footfalls.

The witness left food at a stump and hid a new audio recorder nearby from Saturday morning to Sunday morning. On playback he reports hearing footsteps approaching, tapping on metal, English-like phrases and mumbling, a shushing pause, and a wood knock. He believes part of the audio was moved to a different dated section of the recorder.
