Possible encounter behind a fish hatchery near Fort Chiswell
The witness and a companion were leaving a fishing spot behind a fish hatchery at dusk when the witness heard a crash and saw a tall dark standing figure on the trail they had just used. The companion ran ahead while the witness briefly watched the figure before running to a truck in fear. The figure was described as very tall with broad shoulders and seen only as a silhouette for a few seconds.
Large man-like figure seen in the trees by a Marine training at Fort A. P. Hill
Three service members were on overnight guard duty at a wooded bivouac during a 2008 training exercise. The main witness looked up from a seated position and saw a large heavily built human-like figure silhouetted in the trees above about 30 feet away, holding trees with long outstretched arms. He blinked to check his vision, watched it move silently between trees, then it vanished. In the morning the two companions posted apart independently said they had seen something in the trees, and the three concluded they had seen the same figure circling their position.
Possible trash snatching (2 witnesses) outside Sherando
The witness and a companion were sleeping in their truck at a forest camp late at night when a large bipedal shape walked past and went to trash bags hung high in a tree. The shape reached up, carried one bag into the woods where tearing and eating sounds were heard, then returned about half an hour later to take a second bag. The pair remained in the truck, then packed up and left to spend the rest of the night elsewhere.
