Man and witnesses have two seperate sighting, 1st while fishing, 2nd while driving

In April 1982, the witness and a companion were driving home from their senior prom late at night on a flat road section. Under the car headlights they saw a massive black-furred creature leaning on a road sign, with about ten feet of its chest-down visible but no head in view. Terrified, they sped up and continued driving; about a mile later a tire blew out, and they drove several miles to a house to call for help.

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.

Report data: BFRO - Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization, Sasquatch Chronicles (podcast, local transcripts). Summaries are written for the Anomadex; original reports stay with their publishers. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors ·

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
