Possible encounter at a state park campsite on the Musconetcong River
The witness camped overnight in a sleeping bag by a dying fire after hearing a metallic clink followed by tree knocks that seemed to answer each other from two directions. The witness then watched a dark silhouette showing only head and shoulders peek from behind a tree about 20 feet away. In the morning a tied food bag was gone except for an orange left on the ground.
Motorist has nightime sighting near Harmony
The witness was driving home from work at night when headlights revealed an upright figure standing in the road ahead.

The witness, who hunts locally, said it was not a bear or other familiar animal.
Recollection of a possible late night stalking on Waterloo Road in Allamuchy
In August 1977 the witness was walking along Waterloo Road at night after missing a ride and trying to hitchhike. He heard something moving through the woods alongside the road that sounded bipedal and kept pace with him, running when he ran and walking when he walked, for about a mile. The night was very dark and he never saw the source, eventually getting a ride near houses.
