Mother & children smell foul odor & hear unusual sounds in the night

The [name withheld] family was at home in a heavily wooded area when the dogs became fearful, usual night sounds stopped, and a strange stillness and odor were noticed. They then heard limbs breaking across the road as if caused by something large. The next morning the husband found a trail at the location that he could not identify.

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
