Father and son are approached by three large bipeds while fishing at dusk west of Asbury

A father and son were night fishing from buckets on a creek bank facing a rocky, wooded bluff. They watched three large bipedal silhouettes approach through trees across the creek, with the first stopping close and squatting to observe them. After a smaller, more distant figure gave piercing screams and a closer figure answered with a guttural grunt, the figures started moving toward each other and the witnesses left for their truck.

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
