Whoop (2008)

On Vancouver Island the witness and a companion walked out after hearing knocks and whoops and called for a third person to bring a recorder. They watched a light like a headlamp leave camp, travel down the wrong trail into a thorn thicket, sit, then pass through and disappear. The person they thought they were watching was still in camp.

It continued into woods on the other side while the daughter panicked.

Summer 2008 Selma,, Josephine County, Oregon Class B #25445

Possible knocking heard by husband and wife while camping on their gold claim in Fiddler Gulch

The witness and his wife camped at their claim in Fiddler Gulch over the weekend of June 15, 2008. On several mornings and evenings they heard the same paired cracking sound, like a branch striking a tree, with about two seconds between beats. There was little wind, and the wife suggested expanding or contracting burnt trees as a cause. An investigator later suggested the sounds could have been wood knocks, citing unusually tame deer lingering in camp at the same time.
