Woman describes childhood sighting (multi-witness) on abondonned RR bed outside Barnwell

Three children playing near an old railroad bed in the evening heard a shrill wailing sound and went to investigate. On the other side of the track bed they saw a tall, very hairy creature standing and looking at them. After staring for about 15 seconds, the children ran screaming back to the house.

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
