10 October 2000 Sorrento, Ascension Parish, Louisiana Class A #514

Early evening sighting by motorist near Sorrento

The witness was driving west on a highway at dusk with headlights on when a tall hairy biped rose from a roadside ditch into the headlight beam. The witness described a very thin light-gray animal with a small round head, extra-long arms, and pale areas around the eyes standing upright. Alone and unable to turn, the witness continued driving without stopping.

Full-body sighting
Summer 1978 Ascension Parish, Louisiana Class C #1282

witnesses heard bizarre loud screams while out catching bullfrogs in a swamp.

The witness, then 8, was camping with relatives at a boat-access camp far back in the swamp. A little after 1 a.m., after a relative blew a hunting-dog horn to elicit an owl response, the group heard a single loud scream while lying on cots in the moonlight. The witness describes it as indescribable and unlike other swamp sounds, and says the group did not know what it was.

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
