REPORT RECEIVED: From the GCBRO Online Reports Submissions Form

DATE:  1938

TIME:  10:00 0r 11:00 pm

LOCATION:  Texas, Ellis County, Near the town of Red Oak, Texas. U.S.A.

TERRAIN:  Wooded

OBSERVED:    I do not know of any road names because this happened 61 years ago. But i do know that the witness to the sighting had to cross Red Oak Creek to get to the location where the sighting took place.

My Father (who has passed on) was about 18 years old at the time.  It was right before world war II and my Father had plans to join the navy and wanted to get together with a few friends and go "coon" hunting like they have done many times before. My father stated that they drove on a dirt road several miles till the road ended and they had to get out and "hike" about two or three more miles to get to where they wanted to hunt at. The brush in the bottoms at
that time was very difficult to get through. they also had to wade across Red Oak Creek while going to the location. it took the men quite a while to get there. finally they made it to where they wanted to set up camp. they built a fire and let the dogs loose to go sniff out some raccoons. the men just stayed by the fire and joked and carried on for a while. after about and half hour the men noticed something very strange; the dogs were not out somewhere barking up a
storm as they should of been. In fact, the dogs at sometime came back and the men noticed that they were real close by acting as if they we scared of something. after about a few minutes of wondering what the heck was going on, they
noticed  something really big and covered in dirty white hair, standing on two legs about 40 or so yards from where they were. It was just standing there watching them. Now My Father had lived and hunted in the area all or most of his 18 years and knew that this thing that was watching them was something he had never heard of or encountered before.  The men suddenly just were filled with fright and ran as fast as they could out of the bottoms and the dogs were right along with them. The only gun that they had was a .22 and figured that was not enough to hurt this thing if they did want to shoot at it. my father said what took about 1 hour to get to where they wanted to hunt from where they parked the car, took about 15-20 minutes to get back to running like a bat out of hell.  They did not know if the thing followed them or not.  They told a few people about what had happened but not many would believe them.  He did say an old african american man by the name of Tommy who lived in those bottoms, would tell of very strange screams & moans that would come out of the bottoms mostly at night. Tommy never did see what was making the screams. Well My Fathers brother-in-law might have sort of believed them or wanted to be all macho and go out there one
night to see if he had any encounters with this creature. He and a couple of friends of his (my father did not go out there ever again after what he saw) drove out on the same dirt road that goes into the bottoms, only they just turned the car at the end of the road, parked and waited.  Now after about of couple of hours, they figured they were not going to see anything, so they were getting ready to leave. after a few more minutes, they heard something coming through the brush in the direction of where they were, it was coming out of the bottoms. It kept getting closer until it came out of the brush and was heading towards the car that they were in. As soon as they saw that this thing was real, they started up the car and drove the hell out of there, only thing is, the creature started running after them!!
They got a better look at the thing while this was happening. they said it was on two legs, covered in white dirty hair that was al over its body and was huge. they did not say if it made any noises or not, and they did not get a good look at the face, they just new it was something that scared the hell out of them. The creature actually kept up with the car as it was driving down the dirt road. they finally lost it when they were able to get to the main highway and "go
a hell of alot faster". As far as I know there was no other activity from this creature at that time. this encounter jolted my father so bad, that he never went hunting in those bottoms again.

He did say that around the time they noticed the dogs were not out barking & sniffing out a coon, they noticed how really quite it was, no other sounds at all that they usually heard in the bottoms.

Description of Creature:   "Hairy Figure" running away on two legs

Activities of Witness:  They were just laughing and talking and hanging around the camp fire on first sighting.
 

Other Notes:  On the second sighting my fathers brother-in-law and a couple of his friends were just waiting
and talking while in a car.
 

Other Other Notes:   I did read about the Lake Worth Monster that was sighted in the Area of Lake Worth, which is north of Fort Worth, Tx. back in 1968-69. that was also a white haired creature that threw tires and took some guys chicken while he was sleeping in the bed of his truck one night (or so it was reported). I have often wondered if this was the same creature my father had seen.
