Campers hear loud deep howls near Lake Texoma

Four campers sitting around a campfire at night heard two deep howls from the south, then a higher-pitched howl from the northwest, followed about 20 minutes later by a close whoop. Through the night they also heard brush breaking, grunts around 1 a.m., and noticed a slight odor. A morning search found nothing solid, though exploration toward the first vocalizations reportedly revealed a freshly snapped elevated branch.

Near Lake Texoma and Hagerman Wildlife Refuge, ongoing activity near family home.

The witness was standing on the front porch at night while the father left to search for horses. A tall hairy human-like figure approached to the iron fence, held the witness's gaze, and placed a hand on the fence top. When the witness glanced at returning jeep headlights, the figure quickly moved halfway down the pasture and disappeared.

Seven-foot tall creature seen by two youths; a local newspaper later carries story about other incidents in the same area

Two boys walked from their houses into nearby woods toward a creekbed to shoot BB guns while footsteps seemed to parallel them and close to nearby. At the bottom of the creekbed they looked toward the sounds and saw a roughly seven-foot-tall hair-covered figure whose face they could not discern. Both fled home in fear and said the figure did not follow them.
