Water hauler has late night encounter

The witness, a water hauler, reported being outside his truck at a work site in the early morning when he smelled a foul odor and saw a very large bipedal figure in the moonlight. The figure reportedly moved around the truck but stayed out of the work lights. The sighting lasted about 30 seconds and the figure was described as taller than a nearby 6-foot well head with black hair.

Sasquatch reaches into tent of adult camper

The witness was sleeping alone in a tent on a group camping trip when a strong odor woke them. A large hairy arm reached in through the tent flap, felt around, then withdrew. The witness then perceived two tall figures outside through the tent fabric and heard male and female vocalizations as the beings yelled and ran away.

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
