Child has encounter while looking at the night sky

In 1985 the witness stood in a large backyard bordering pine forest late in the evening to look for a comet when an extremely loud scream came from the forest edge.

The witness ran inside to report it to a relative and returned the next day to sit in the branch level with where the creature's head had been.

witnesses heard bizarre loud screams while out catching bullfrogs in a swamp.

The witness, then 8, was camping with relatives at a boat-access camp far back in the swamp. A little after 1 a.m., after a relative blew a hunting-dog horn to elicit an owl response, the group heard a single loud scream while lying on cots in the moonlight. The witness describes it as indescribable and unlike other swamp sounds, and says the group did not know what it was.
