Three witnesses observe large creature run in front of them while parked in Red Cloud State Park

The witness and two companions were sitting in a parked car at a campground campsite at night. A very tall, slender bipedal figure ran across their front view about 40 feet away at high speed, seen only as a silhouette in moonlight. The group was frightened and left immediately without driving toward the direction it went. The witness later felt no human could have run that fast through the brush and vegetation.

Sasquatch sighting in Nebraska (1976)

The witness woke overnight feeling watched while sleeping around a campfire and saw a hairy silhouette on a hill about 50 to 60 feet away. He first thought it was a counselor, then noticed very long arms and body hair as it stared and swayed side to side for a couple minutes. It then walked down into thick brush without audible footsteps and he lay back down without alerting others.

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
