April 1999 Bon Wier, Newton County, Texas Class A #9387

Fisherman has afternoon encounter while bowfishing for gar in Sabine River bottom

The witness was bowfishing from a boat when he noticed an upright, hair-covered entity standing on the bank about thirty yards away. When the entity turned toward him it gave a loud high-pitched scream, then walked away into the woods while the witness watched and slapped the water with a paddle. The witness described the walk as stooped with bent knees and swinging arms.

November 1981 Bon Wier/Newton, Newton County, Texas Class A #13833

Early evening sighting by motorist two miles outside Bon Wier

The witness and their spouse were driving on Highway 190 in southeast Texas at dusk in fall 1981 or 1982. A tall, lean, hairy figure stepped into the road ahead of them, paused near the center to look toward the vehicle, then continued off the road into vegetation. The pair watched for about ten seconds and drove past without stopping.

The Database of Unexplained Encounters. Claims are recorded as claims: the Anomadex catalogues what people reported, where it was reported, and how sure I am that it was read correctly. It does not rule on what they saw.

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
