Family vacationing in Pigeon Forge has two sightings on two consecutive nights driving down a mountain road
A family driving back to their mountain cabin at night rounded a turn and saw a tall, dark-haired biped walking on the roadside. All four family members watched it take several strides on the pavement before it left the shoulder and went down toward a creek without acknowledging them. The parents had glimpsed a similar figure in nearly the same spot the previous night. The next day the family found slide marks and a broken branch near the creek and learned another family had also seen the creature.
Memory told of a late night close encounter from a parked vehicle outside Gatlinburg
The witness and a companion were parked in a truck at a mountain road landing late at night and watched a wild boar rooting in snow. After the boar fled, an upright figure appeared at the tree line, stood over the boar's spot, and was then illuminated by high beams. The figure blocked the light, showed glowing eyes, grunted, crossed the road in three strides, grabbed a sapling and disappeared uphill, leaving a strong odor.
Man recalls daytime encounter near Columbia and Duck River
In 1979 the witness and a friend were walking in woods onto an open rocky glade when they came face-to-face with an upright creature about 20-30 yards away. All three froze and stared for about a minute before the creature gave a loud growl ending in a high-pitched scream and walked back into the bushes. Later that day the witness returned with his brother and found a small tree twisted to splinters.
