Scream Brown County Clear all
28 May 1995 Brown County, Indiana Class B #2460

Two campers hear strange sounds and see the outline of an upright creature.

The witness and a relative were camping and had just built a fire when they heard a scream from a ridge. After firing a shotgun into the air, they saw the moonlit outline of an upright human-like figure running toward the water's edge while making an unfamiliar howling sound. They also noticed something that looked like a large footprint but were unsure about it.

4 April 1986 Aberdeen, Brown County, South Dakota Class B #1445

Teenagers hear strange sounds near Aberdeen

Two friends were talking late at night in a farmhouse basement with the windows open when they heard a strange screeching or howl-like sound from a nearby field. They looked out the window but saw nothing, and the sound continued intermittently for about ten minutes. Neither could identify it as any known wildlife or farm animal, and a brief search the next day found nothing.

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
