Two girls have a daytime close encounter on their family farm near Oak Grove

Two girls encountered a tall dark figure at close range in a marshy wooded area near a fence. The figure left quickly while splashing through water, as a nearby cat reacted with alarm and neighboring dogs barked and fled. The witnesses then heard loud imitative barking and cow-like sounds from different directions, followed by faint responses to their own knocks. They went inside and later recounted the events to family and an investigator.

Family describes possible encounters on a lake near Oak Grove

A couple watching movies in a barn heard prolonged loud splashing along a nearby lake shore that stopped when a flashlight was shone toward it and then resumed in a different spot. They felt uneasy and left for the night. The next morning the wife found a very large human-like footprint with partial prints on the shore and kept a broken cast of it.

Law enforcement officers' face-to-face encounter outside Dover

The witness was driving slowly on a rural gravel road late at night when headlights illuminated a large dark figure in the road with glowing eyes. The figure moved to the side of the road on all fours, then stood upright beside the road as the witness passed within about fifteen feet. The witness described a very tall, heavily muscled, hair-covered male figure and continued driving home, later telling relatives.
