Scream causes man to turn and see large creature walking by

The witness was fishing in a lake when an eerie scream drew their attention. Turning, they saw a 7-foot-tall hairy figure about 47 yards away. The figure kept watching the witness while walking quickly away into the woods and out of sight.

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
