Hikers find footprints and see 10 foot tall creature outside home

The witness and a companion found very large footprints and broken branches while hiking and felt watched and followed back to the companion's house. The next morning the witness, sleeping on a couch by large front windows, saw a very tall brown human-like hairy creature in the clearing outside. After watching for several minutes, the creature approached, climbed a bank, and struck the house wall hard enough to wake the companion.

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
