LOCATION:
Walker County, Alabama
TERRAIN:
Wooded with Creeks
OBSERVED:
heard large animal crashing through thick woods and underbrush. we did
not hear anything at first and all of a sudden my cousin and i heard tremendous
crashing about 200 yds away. it came straight at us, never stopped until
it got at the edge of the road, but stayed in the edge of the woods and
just stood there looking at us. it was shifting from one foot to the other
rather slow. my heart was pounding something awful. i was about 9 and my
cousin was around 12. it was a clear night, full moon, we were going fishing
at the mouth of the creek. we had an old rayovac flashlight and week batteries.
we saw the whole outline of this thing. at first my cousin said it was
just a horse before we saw it. it just stood there looking at us. horses
don't hang out in woods. could not see any ears, the arms were down by
it's side. the moon was so bright and behind the unknown creature. i would
not be afraid to say it was 8 ft tall, we were looking up at it with the
moon at its back, could not see any features but the out line of it. we
were in shock. my cousin told me to run, but i couldn't. he had to come
back and get me. there was no sound from it but could hear it breathing
it was not out of breath. we thought it was a giant man, no smell.
Additional
Info: no way a man can
move through the woods like that and make so much noise.
Activities
of Witness: we were
going to the mouth of two creeks to fish. about 1 mile from house. walking
down paved road. last house was a mile back toward home, we were talking
kinda soft because the last house we past had a big old german shepard
with few teeth. we would sneak quietly by the house so the dog could
not hear us. it staid under the house. we broke a lot of fishing
poles over the dogs head, it was very agressive. we always go to the mouth
of the creek and fish and herd strange things but were'nt afraid. we never
herd of bigfoot.
Description
of Creature: very tall. very broad.
the moon was behind it and i could see hair on its head and shoulders.
could silhouet. we were 10 ft from it looking up at it. looked at it about
30 seconds we did not say a word. i know it was looking down at us, i could
feel it. my cousin turned on the light but it was too dim,the moon over
powered the light. the head was kinda small compared to it shoulders. i
remember well. could not see below thighs.
