Cryptid sighting near Federal Way, Washington State (2005)

Three friends were sitting in a fenced backyard at dusk after playing softball when they noticed two spinning white lights in the tops of tall evergreens. Moments later a small, heavy, furry creature with a human-like face crawled from behind a wheelbarrow, looked at them, then ran uphill on all fours with loud heavy footfalls and cleared an eight-foot shed into the trees where the lights had been. Two of them started to investigate with a shovel and flashlight while the third reported a bright shooting star, then they left to meet friends. They have reported no similar activity at the house before or since.

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
