LOCATION:
Strafford County, New Hampshire
TERRAIN:
Wooded
OBSERVED:
We were using my friends telescope on a small peninsula in the middle of
the swamp. The swamp was surrounded by very steep wooded hills on all but
the side the peninsula outcropped from my friends apartment building.
We were observing the stars for about a half an hour. There was no
moon visible so it was very dark. It was cold and the swamp was semi
frozen. All of a sudden we heard a very loud screaming growl coming
from across the swamp about 200 yards away coming from the edge of the
woods on the opposite side of the swamp. If memory serves me correctly
I believe it was to the southwest of our position. What ever the
creature was began to take individual steps in our direction. The
steps were distinctly bipedal and as it took steps through the swamp we
could hear it loudly crush through the Ice in the swamp. It made
it's howling scream continually as it stepped through the swamp coming
in our direction. Whatever it was appeared to be very angry. Dan
and I grabbed our gear and ran the 100 or so yards to his apartment all
the while the beast kept coming our direction. We were completely
freaked out. Dan and I spent a lot of time in our lives in the forest
and up until that time had never heard a sound like that.
Additional
Info: 8 years later
I was at my computer in my home office listening to a radio broadcast about
big foot. They played some vocalizations and all of a sudden all
my hair stood up on end. It was almost the same exact sound Dan and
I heard that night. I ran into our bedroom, woke my wife and made her listen.
I couldn't sleep.
