Wood knock near Waukon, Iowa (2015)

On a Saturday night in winter the witness was at the family farmhouse with relatives. Over several minutes he heard distant tree knocks that seemed to approach, while dogs barked and horses were agitated, followed by a creaking sound and a loud metallic pop during an outdoor check. His daughter separately heard a low moan outside a bathroom window, which she first thought was the witness.

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
