June
1991 Bald Eagle State Park:
Two men were standing next to their vehicle. They
heard a noise in the woods and looked to see a deer
climbing the bank and it crossed the road. Shortly
after they saw a dark colored figure come up the same
bank and stopped at the side of the road. The creature
was 40 feet away from the two men. They described
it as standing 7 to 8 ½ feet tall and having
a large build. The creature was covered with long
stringy dark colored hair. They were so close that
they could hear the breathing. The creature turned
and looked at the two men. They could see the stomach
area had darker colored hair on it. The eyes were
large and black. The hair covering the face was much
shorter. The creature appeared to move its lips as
if it were attempting to speak. It placed its hand
on its hip, then dropped its arm. The arms hung to
about 2 inches above its knees. The creature took
a step towards the men, and they hastily got into
their vehicle. The creature then turned and trotted
down the road away from the men. The men described
a sour sweaty smell that accompanied the creature.
They also claim they found a 16 inch long, 5 inch
wide footprint.
Friday, June 22, 1990
around 3 to 4 PM EDT: Bald Eagle Township :A
man in a pickup truck (age 37, school bus driver)
and a few other people in a car behind him saw the
creature. This sighting happened on a hot, bright
and clear day. The witness was driving his S-10 pickup
truck and was coming down a dirt road and made a right
turn at a stop sign. As he made the turn he saw a
movement out of the corner of his eye and saw a tall
hairy creature hop over the guard rail, just as a
man would, by putting its hands on the top of the
guard rail and jumping over with both feet. He slammed
on his brakes and stopped within 10 feet of the creature.
The driver behind him also slammed on his brakes.
In this car was a man, a woman and two children. The
creature stood there looking over the occupants of
both vehicles. The other driver got out of his vehicle
and said something like "What the hell is that?",
but when the creature started to move towards them
he got back in his car. The witness noticed the creature
was 7 to 8 foot tall and grotesque, with long matted
dark chocolate brown colored hair (6 to 8 inches long)
that was knotted and tangled and looked as if it were
molting. The face was covered with hair, but the witness
did see its eyes. They were very dark in the center
but lighter around the outside, but he saw no sclera
(white area) around them. The eyes had lids and were
similar to oriental eyes (almond shaped) and as large
as quarters. He doesn't recall any ears and its head
was rounded like a humans. It had a thick muscular
build, like a man, but fatter in the stomach and the
butt area. The neck was very short and thick or else
the head sat on the shoulders (the matted thick hair
made it difficult to determine). The witness recalls
it looked something like Chewbacca from "Star
Wars". The creature walked toward the vehicles
in a diagonal direction, heading for the opposite
side of the road. The stench from the creature was
of old rotting garbage. As the creature walked past
the truck, the witness leaned down to see the its
head, but the witnesses eyes were at a level at the
bottom of the window and he could only see to just
below the creatures shoulders. The witness did see
its hands and estimates they were at least four feet
off the ground and had its arms at its side. The creature
reached the shoulder of the road, hesitated a second
to look at the witnesses, and grunted like a low pig
grunt and walked down the slight bank into the bushes
in a field towards the woods. The witness did not
talked to the people in the other vehicle. When he
got home his daughter asked him what was stinking.
Apparently the stench from the creature had penetrated
his vehicle and his clothing. The next day he went
back to this same place to look for footprints, but
found none on the hard and dry ground. He did discover
a path that the creature apparently could have taken
and followed this well-worn path past a pond and into
the woods. The area surrounding this sighting has
several caves, a swamp, power lines, a sheep farm,
an apple orchard, plenty of pear trees, a cemetery,
an abandon trailer and a junkyard with several guard
dogs. On occasion the guard dogs would go crazy barking
but the owner blames it on looters, although apparently
nothing has ever been stolen. The terrain is wooded,
hilly, grassy, with agricultural and open fields.

Summer 1972 after "Agnes
Flood": Salona: A woman kept food she
had canned in an enclosed area of her back porch.
Sometime after the flood she heard noises on the porch
and went out to see what was going on. She found a
creature going through the canned goods. She startled
the creature and it tore the screen door off the hinges
and ran off. Submitted by: Paul Johnson Courtesy www.paresearchers.com
