Youngsters encounter large, grey creature in a sugar beet field

The witness was riding a bike on a farm road at sunset with a companion and dogs when the dogs became agitated. The witness then saw a large grey-haired humanoid figure standing in a nearby crop field watching them. The figure remained still and silent, and the witness stared briefly before fleeing.

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
