Six People Witness "Large dark Animal, run away on two legs" near Gunpowder State Park

The witness and several companions were sitting in parked cars at a state park fishing area late at night. They heard something crashing down a wooded slope and saw a tall dark human-like figure land on the road, pause to look back, then sprint away with loud slapping footsteps. The group briefly got out, then left without discussing it and did not speak of it among themselves for months.

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
