Two men see see a hairy creature running into woods

The witness was driving with a friend in daylight when both reportedly saw a dark figure dart past a telephone pole into the woods. The witness described it as all black with a long torso and very long arms swinging as it ran very fast and upright. They turned back to search the woods but found nothing there.

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
