Upright 'Wolf Man' Seen At Campsite Near Natick, Massachusetts

A group of friends were camping in the forest near Natick, Massachusetts when one of the group encountered a tall 'wolf man' figure with grayish fur and bushy tail.

The following account was recently forwarded to me:

We live in Natick, Massachusetts. This incident happened in the spring of 2006. There's a wooded area with a portion of it containing an old abandoned fenced off factory that is relatively near apartment buildings. Some of my friends who live at the apartment complex went about half a mile into the wooded area for camping. Their names will be omitted.

Now before I go further I must say that my area has experienced very weird sounds. Although. in my opinion, they are very un-wolf like. They sound like a woman screaming crossed with long dog barks. A very indescribable and terrible sound. They come from various directions, though usually from the apartment area.

Much of the camping trip went normally for them. However at about dusk they noticed the cry from off in the distance. They set up their tent and lights, etc. and got into their tents.

One had to get up in the midst of the night to relieve themselves. But when she went outside she got the overpowering sensation of being watched. She returned inside and roused her boyfriend to come out with her. When they got out he too felt the sensation but at the time said he didn't mention it in order to comfort her. As she was going her boyfriend swears he saw something walking away from the campsite. He could see it through the brush to the right of the tree where she was, a large (approximately 6.5-7 foot in height) man-shaped figure, covered in grayish fur, sporting wolf-like features and a bushy tail swaying behind it. He was shocked and ran into the tent, leaving his girlfriend who came running in a moment later, after hearing the rustling of the creature.

Throughout the night they, and the others (who awoke during the commotion) stayed awake, continuously thinking they heard the cry in the distance. They never encountered it again, but left promptly in the morning." PT

'Dirty, Smelly Kid': Possible BEK Connection?

A military man had a bizarre encounter with dirty, smelly kid that he believed may have had some possible connection with the BEK experiences he has read about.

I recently came across this strange account:

"I have spent decades in the military intelligence community, so I don’t want to put out too much information about myself. However, I’m curious if any other experiences overlap my own.

We lived off-base in this rundown community that looks like any other rundown community you find anywhere else next to a military installation. The apartment complex itself was nice by the standards of the rest of the buildings in our area.

At 00:30, on a Friday morning, I was woken up by a series of knocks on my heavy wooden door. I have a rule. One series of knocks is just people messing with the neighbors, but if they really need something, they’ll knock twice. Yup, there came the second series of knocks. I expected it to be someone from work trying to get ahold of me, and my cellphone had died. It had happened before.

I opened the door and stared down at this kid that I estimate to have been six years old. There was so much about the kid that was bizarre, the eyes feature suggested in BEKs seems kind of trivial. I can’t say with one-hundred percent confidence that his eyes were all black orbs...I just don’t know because the rest of him was such a mess. When I look at people, I don’t know I have a habit of avoiding eye contact.

The rest of his description is as follows:

-clothing: grey filthy hooded sweatshirt with hood up halfway with matching sweatpants

-skin complexion: for lack of a better phrase, I would say that he was “extremely pale.” Not clear if there were blemishes in way of freckles on this skin or if he was just really dirty.

- hair: possible reddish brown, messy, dirty, short

His face was in this grimace of hatred. His expression was like someone who was sucking on the world’s most sour candies.

Here’s the worst part of it: the body odor he was radiating was like something I have never smelled before or since. I’ve smelled decomposing bodies in war. The closest smell I can relate to was in Ranger School. In RS, due to the lack of food and rest, often guys’ bodies will start to consume muscle for energy. Combined with the lack of bathing opportunities, this creates an odor that is hard to top. But this kid’s smelled like weaponized foulness.

I asked: Can I help you?

In a voice flat, void of inflection, he said: “My parents don’t like you.”

I responded: “Um…what?”

He stated: “You’ll be okay if you give us something great!”

I slammed the door on him because I thought he was just screwing with me. He let out this “Nooo!” I could hear him on the other side throwing a tantrum like you see toddlers in the store when their parents won’t let them have something. Definitely a very strange thing to do at midnight. However, kids running around the dilapidated neighborhood unsupervised was a pretty common occurrence. I just chalked it up to bad parenting.

I showered and threw my clothes out because I didn’t want that stench on me. I went back to bed because I had to be up again in four hours. The strange thing is that the stench didn’t seem to linger.

I saw this kid on three other occasions. The second time I was going out to my car in the morning, and he was standing in the parking lot glaring at me. When I came home, he was staring at me standing in the same spot. Then when I looked out the window hours later, he was still in the same spot, glaring with that same sneer at nothing. I asked my wife what she made of him, and she said he wasn’t bothering anything. Which was a pretty low bar for that neighborhood. Kids would often run around vandalizing people’s vehicles and apartments.

I thought about calling the authorities. However, what was I going to say? There’s this weird kid. He might need help because he’s weird. And he stinks. The truth is that I hated this kid. Now, I have three kids of my own, so I don’t just out hate other kids. However, I hated this one. I hated his smell. I hated that he existed. I felt like he was trying to target and bully me for some reason. No. I didn’t want to help this kid. Also, I had these paranoid thoughts of, if this kid hates me as much as I hate him, he’s going to lie to the cops and tell them I had harmed him. It could affect my security clearance. It’s best just to ignore him and this will all go away.

One time, I saw him interacting with kids outside, so I know he wasn’t a figment of my imagination. However, he didn’t play with them like a normal kid. This girl would come up and grab him by the arm, and he would just stand there and glare at her. There were kids running around him, and he just stared at them with that grimace.

My wife wanted me to share this experience that I had back in 2011. At the time, I worked in the office of a regional command (J2). I’ve been read into various truly bizarre government programs, however thinking about it, I still don’t know what to make of this kid. I don’t know what to get out of writing this. Maybe, someone knows more about this kid, or has had other experiences similar? I’m not saying this kid was magical or demonic. I can’t rule out that he was truly just some kind of misfortunate. Maybe the right thing to do would have been to get him help. However, I just can’t get past how much I hated him for no reason. Between that and the smell, my experience wasn’t that bizarre. What I do know if that I’m fine with never seeing that kid again. Maybe these BEK experiences can be explained by kids just being extra weird?" SL

PRE-ORDER 'THE MARK OF THE BELL WITCH'

'The legend comes to life, centered on the 19th-century Bell family of Robertson County, Tennessee, near the town of Adams, along the Red River. From 1817-1820, the Bell family is tormented by an entity determined to exact fear and pain. This is a well-produced film by Small Town Monsters that details the folklore associated with this timeless Southern tale. I'm sure that you'll enjoy it.' - Lon Strickler

2nd Large Black Winged Humanoid Observed in Cape Girardeau, Missouri

2 sisters from Cape Girardeau, Missouri observed a black humanoid figure with very large wings and legs near the same location of a previous witness sighting.

The following account was forwarded to Phantoms & Monsters Fortean Research and The Singular Fortean Society investigator Tobias Wayland:

The Singular Fortean Society’s lead investigator Tobias Wayland spoke recently with two sisters who said they saw a strange, flying creature in late August of this year near the site where another woman said she’d seen a “black, humanoid figure with very large wings and legs” last October in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.

The two women were driving at about 6 o’clock in the evening on Lexington Avenue and had just passed Sprigg Street when they had their encounter, which took place only about a mile from the previously reported sighting.

Beverly Weakley, 67, was behind the wheel while Brenda Elfrink, 60, was in the passenger seat. 

Brenda was looking at her phone when she heard her sister exclaim, “What was that?”

"I was on my phone, I heard her and I looked up. I got a good look at it, but I didn’t really know what I was looking at. It seemed like it was just across the road and gone. There was no place for it to land," said Brenda. 

She described the creature as being "big and blackish/brownish—more brown than black, but dark" and "shaped like nothing I've ever seen. I saw a lot of movement like wings—I saw more of that than anything else."

"I’d say it was five or six feet tall, maybe bigger. I was kind of rationalizing what I was looking at. There were no feet, I just saw a big brown mass, basically. But it did feel like I saw movement, like wings or something," Brenda said. "I saw a whipping, fluttering motion and it looked like it almost took up the whole road. It probably didn’t, but that’s what it looked like to me. I honestly wondered at first if it was a big throw rug flying across the road and whipping up in the wind or something, but there was no wind. It wasn’t a stormy day or anything. I said ‘Oh my god, we saw Mothman.'"

However, said Brenda, her sister Beverly “saw much more” of the thing than she did.

According to Beverly,

It looked like it might have come from the side of the road, there are some trees there, but it was fully in our vision in the car. It wasn’t high, it was maybe eight feet off of the ground—you could see underneath it, you could see over it. It was probably five to six feet long, and it was brown. It didn’t look like it had feathers to me, it looked like it had membranes. It looked like it had webbed, membranous wings, and there were a lot of wings. Some were flapping. They were ribbed like umbrellas. It didn’t look like a pterodactyl, but it looked like those kind of wings. It was probably 10 to 15 feet ahead of us, and it was flying. I didn’t see a person, like a body shape, but it certainly could have been a thin something that was long.

Beverly said the creature "looked like something was shrouded in this bunch of wings. It got skinnier towards the last two feet, like they were wrapped around. To me, it looked like a body shrouded in wings. It was definitely wings, of some sort, and they looked like they were meat, not feathers. I didn’t see any limbs, I didn’t see a head."

The 67-year-old described the wings moving in an undulating fashion, "like a wave."

"The wings were moving," she explained. "It looked like it had taken off and it had these little wings throughout. The way it flew was weird. It didn’t use all of its wings at one time. It was the strangest thing I’ve ever seen. It rippled, kind of."

Neither woman was able to tell where the creature went after it flew across the road.

"I was driving, so I didn't see where it went," Beverly said. "I don’t know why we didn’t try to stop and look some more, but it was scary. I think that’s why."

As for Brenda, she "didn't see as much" as Beverly, because she "just looked up and glanced."

"I didn’t see all that detail," she said. "I did see a glimpse of a fluttering wing or something, but not all the detail [Beverly] saw."

Although the sighting lasted only several seconds, both women stuck by their story despite the skepticism expressed by those close to them, and emphasized that they did not wish to embellish their testimony in any way. In fact, if it wasn't for Brenda's son mentioning the report from October, they may never have reported their own sighting.

Brenda said that, following their sighting, "Everybody was saying ‘Oh, you saw an owl,’ or whatever. I just shut up, because everybody was acting like I’m crazy."

"We went home kind of scared, and [Beverly's] family acted like we were crazy. I honestly don’t know how I could shut up about it, because I know what I saw. I just kind of let it go, until [my son] said that people started seeing it," she explained. "What makes this so funny or odd, is that [my son] messaged me and asked if I’d heard of all these sightings. Before I heard anything that he’d had to say, I told him what we saw. I told him where we’d seen it, and he said ‘Mom, that’s the same area.’ If we’d have turned instead of going straight, we would have ended up where the [October sighting happened]."

Beverly added, "My husband said it was a pile of leaves that were swirling. No, it’s not. That’s not what it was. A crane? No, it wasn’t a crane. I know a crane. It was very unusual and unsettling. That’s why we started talking about it again. We saw something in the same area [as the other sighting], and I cannot tell you what it was."

"I’m so glad you called," she said to lead investigator Tobias Wayland. "Because I wanted to tell somebody, but we just didn’t know what to do with the information so we just didn’t do anything. Then we heard talk again, and it’s the same area."

Possible Methods of UFO Propulsion Examined - Part XVI

By Dr. Raymond A. Keller, author of the international awards-winning Venus Rising series of books:

Venus Rising: A Concise History of the Second Planet

Final Countdown: Rockets to Venus

Cosmic Ray's Excellent Venus Adventure

The Vast Venus Conspiracy

Lady Columba Venus Revelations

G. Harry Stine (26 March 1928-2 November 1997), former Chief of Navy Operations at White Sands Proving Grounds in New Mexico, believed that rockets would one day be replaced by electromagnetically powered, anti-gravity, interplanetary spaceships.

“The Make-Up of Outer Space”

It was Dr. W. R. G. Baker, the vice-president and general manager of the General Electric Company’s Electronics Division, who pointed out in late 1955 that scientists working in many fields were actually beginning to explore the deep mysteries of the universe.  Baker noted that everyday these scientists were “learning new things about the make-up of outer space and formulating new concepts.

“Today,” Baker continued, “we in electronics are deeply interested in what lies beyond the Earth’s atmosphere and its gravity field.  For there we may find the electronics world of tomorrow.  Such questions in the past usually have been reserved for the realm of physics and astronomy.  But through entirely new applications in radar, for example, science already is able to measure some of the properties of the world beyond.  Warm bodies radiate microwaves; and by recording noise signals, we are learning about invisible celestial forces we did not even know existed.”

“Power of the Future”

Concurrent with the corporate developments taking place insofar as anti-gravity research was concerned, leaks from government experts on this same topic were seeping into the press.  G. Harry Stine, the Chief of Navy Range Operations at the White Sands Proving Grounds in New Mexico, wrote the following in his article, “Anti-Gravity:  Power of the Future,” in the June 1957 issue of Mechanix Illustrated (New York City, New York):

“There is a good chance that the rocket will be obsolete for space travel within 50 years.  Some of us have been concentrating on the development of the rocket as the possible power plant for outer space propulsion.  We have fired a lot of them and we have proved that they will work in outer space.  We have also learned a lot about what is out there by using rockets. And probably we will take the first few faltering steps into space with rocket power plants.

“But recent discoveries indicate that the spaceship of the future may be powered by anti-gravity devices.  These, instead of using brute force to overcome gravity, will use the force of gravity itself much as an airplane uses the air to make it fly.”

Hints of Progress Made

In the mid-1950s, Sir William Cooke, the English scientist who developed the cathode-ray tube used in television sets, was already conducting extensive experiments into levitation phenomena, a field that once belonged exclusively to vaudeville magicians.  But reasoning scientists, admiring the work that Cooke accomplished with television research and development, thought that if their fellow English investigator felt there was something to levitation after all, that they, too, would take a serious look into it.  

Other noted scientists were investigating the fields of gravitic isotopes, jet electron streams and the mechanics of the electron shells surrounding atoms.  Townsend T. Brown, a prominent American inventor, had even gone further in his anti-gravity research.  In his article, Stine wrote that, “There are tumors that Brown has developed a real anti-gravity machine.”  He also pointed out that there were many firms working on the problems of anti-gravity, and particularly cited Bell Aircraft, General Electric, the Glenn L. Martin Company, Sperry-Rand Corporation, and others.  

What ufologists may find particularly interesting is the following quote from the chief of the Navy missile operations:  “Rumors have been circulating that scientists have built two disc airfoils two feet in diameter incorporating a variation of the simple two-plate electrical condenser which, charged to a potential of 50,000 volts, has achieved a speed of 17 feet per second with a total energy input of 50 watts.  A three-foot diameter disc airfoil charged to 150 kilovolts turned out such an amazing performance that the whole thing was immediately classified.  Flame-jet generators, making use of the electrostatic charge discovered in rocket exhausts, have been developed which will supply charges up to 15 million volts.”

The “Cosmic Ray” unveils many of secrets of the Venusians’ astounding science in the pages of his Final Countdown:  Rockets to Venus (Terra Alta, West Virginia:  Headline Books, 2017).

Fantastic Revelations in Final Countdown:  Rockets to Venus

Confirmation of these very principles were expounded upon years earlier by a Venusian saucer pilot to George Adamski out on the Colorado Desert in Riverside County, California, where her scout ship landed about 10.2 miles northeast of the small, truck stop community of Desert Center on 20 November 1952.  The highly detailed, scientific conversation regarding her flying saucer’s electromagnetic propulsion that took place between the Southern California contactee and the lovely Venusian, Lady Orda, is found on pages 41-42 of my second book in the Venus Rising Trilogy, The Final Countdown:  Rockets to Venus (Terra Alta, West Virginia:  Headline Books, 2017), pages 41-42.  Lady Orda’s words vindicate everything that the Navy missile operations chief was only speculating upon in his Mechanix Illustrated article.  Lady Orda was known on Earth at that time as Dolores Barrios, residing clandestinely in Venice, California, and working as a seamstress under contract with Helen Rose, the costume designer for the Metro Golwyn Mayer Studios epic science fiction adventure movie, Forbidden Planet, that was released on 3 March 1956 in Charlotte, North Carolina.  A never-before seen photograph of Dolores Barrios and this writer, taken at Chula Vista, California, in 1972, by Gabriel Green, President of the Amalgamated Flying Saucer Clubs of America, appears on page 39 of the book.  This is a different photo than the one which appears on the cover of Cosmic Ray’s Excellent Venus Adventure (Headline Books, 2017).  It was at that 1972 meeting that Lady Orda explained to the Cosmic Ray the gist of her conversation with Adamski in 1952 regarding the electromagnetic propulsion system onboard the Venusian scout ships (ventlas).  

Anti-gravity saucer capable of hyper-space travel as seen in the MGM 1956 science fiction epic movie, Forbidden Planet.  

Discoveries Made

Stine took note that several important discoveries with regard to gravity propulsion had been made in the year and a half since the Talbert series of articles appeared in the New York Herald Tribune’s European edition from 20-22 November 1955.  First, the propulsive force does not act on only one part of the ship that it is pushing.  It acts on all parts of the ship within the gravity field created by the gravitic drive.  Second, it probably is not limited by the speed of light.  And third, gravity-powered vehicles have apparently been able to change direction and accelerate rapidly at high g’s, even stopping abruptly without any heavy stresses being experienced by the measuring devices aboard the vehicle and within the gravity propulsion field because control is exercised by changing the direction, intensity and polarity of the charge on the condenser plates of the drive unit.  Even for scientists in 1955-1957, this was a fairly simple task.

Keller, a.k.a. “Cosmic Ray,” takes us aboard a real anti-gravity spaceship developed by a joint American corporate and government consortium in the late 1950s that actually flew to Venus and back in 30 minutes.

Upright Wolf-Like Cryptid Seen In East Cheyenne, Wyoming

A high school boy was driving at night in East Cheyenne, Wyoming when he encountered an upright wolf-like cryptid that quickly ran off into the dark.

I recently came across the following account:

"This occurred in 1992 when I was in my senior year of high school. I was cruising around at night in a small area where people used to go 4-wheeling, though it is now a developed area. This is in east Cheyenne, between the area known as Sun Valley and Lincoln Valley Auto Salvage.

I was driving in an easterly direction on a dirt road and saw some kind of wolf-like creature in my headlights approximately 60 yds in front of me. First thought was "coyote," but it wasn't. It seriously looked like a werewolf from the movies. I only saw it for 5-6 seconds. The thing glanced halfway at me and my lights reflected on its eyes, which were a bright yellow glow, and it ran off over a hill. Honestly, but it scared the crap out of me! I rolled up both windows and locked my doors, and started turning my truck to see if I could catch it on the headlights again. I didn't see it again, and I wasn't about to go out any farther. Like I said, I was scared, but curious!

I ended up turning around to the nearest neighborhood by a couple streetlamps, unlocked my door, and bailed out and immediately scrambled to the ground to look under the truck. Much like bailing off your bed as a kid, leaping halfway across the room and jumping down to look under the bed just to prove there is nothing really there. I still laugh about it. I had to look crazy to anyone in that neighborhood who saw me.

So, to best describe what I saw was like a standing wolf, but it was like a movie werewolf. If it had stood up completely straight, it would've been about 6 feet tall. It wasn't completely covered with hair, if any at all. I remember it had a dog-like face with the cheek tufts and shorter pointy ears, as well as a snout like a dog. Its arms were like an orangutan, and it's hind legs were shorter than human. Like I said, like a movie werewolf, except it wasn't all huge in the shoulders and neck like you see in most of the films" NM

'O'Hare Mothman' Encountered By TRACON Air Traffic Controller

An O'Hare International Airport air traffic controller recalls his encounter with a tall red-eyed winged humanoid while on the job in July 2020.

The following report was forwarded to Phantoms & Monsters Fortean Research investigator Manuel Navarette of UFO Clearinghouse:

"I have worked at O’Hare International Airport for the last 7 years as a member of the Air Traffic Control team and in my time have overseen the flight operations in and out of the airport hundreds of times. In my time I have seen many strange things around the airport but none have been as spectacular as the sighting I had back in July of 2020. 

I was working the late evening at TRACON and had just walked away for one of our mandatory breaks. These breaks help us rejuvenate and also help break up the monotony of what can be an otherwise tedious routine and help prevent us from falling asleep. During these breaks I usually go out for a walk to help clear my head and a change of scenery. I was walking toward one of the terminal buildings when I noticed some movement out of the corner of my eye and for some unknown reason I stopped and turned in the direction of the movement and noticed a large black shape coming to a rest on the ground near a light pole. This thing was at least 6-7 feet tall and jet black, it looked like a very big bat but was also very human-like in appearance. 

I noticed that it sported a very large and impressive set of black membranous wings that also looked like the wings of a bat. They were open to their full length and must have been at least 12 feet from tip to tip. The arms on this thing were very long and very skinny and ended in long bony fingers tipped with what appeared to be long talons. The legs on the being were comparable with the arms, long and skinny but I was unable to really look at the feet to see if they were also shaped similarly to the hands. I stood there and saw this thing for about 30 seconds as it seemingly looked around the ground. In the time I was looking no fewer than two others had come down the walkway and also saw it. If it had looked up, it would have clearly seen us all staring in bewilderment at it. It kept it’s head down, looking at the ground until an approaching service vehicle seemingly startled it and it looked up. That is where I saw that its head was short and squat but had a pair of piercing red eyes. It looked in the direction of the approaching vehicle and then began to flap its wings and took to the air. It disappeared above the building in the span of 1-2 seconds and was gone out of sight.

I have heard many of the stories of the supposed O’Hare Mothman from pilots and from other controllers and employees around the airport. I have heard tales of people seeing it in flight or perched somewhere and how it had glowing red eyes and looked like a giant man-bat. Many of my fellow controllers have told of either seeing it themselves or hearing from others who have seen it and it has been the subject of radio chatter on multiple occasions. I never gave much credence to these stories and even though part of me believed and hoped it was real, seeing it myself only helped me become a true believer. I personally know of three other controllers who have had sightings of this thing and just as many pilots who have either reported sightings in and around the airport. You can say it’s kind of built up an almost legendary urban tale sort of status amongst those who work at O’Hare.

I know that what I saw was real and want to get my story out there for others to hear and I want them to know that this thing really is out there somewhere and that trained professionals like myself have seen it and know that it does exist. I hope you find my report useful and if you wish to contact me, I would be willing to answer questions regarding this encounter."

Investigator Notes:

I reached out to the witness and was able to do a phone interview with him in regards to the sighting he submitted. I first began by asking questions regarding his background and the witness was more than willing to send me photos of his work credentials, helping establish his identity and that he did indeed work at O’Hare International Airport. The witness has been working at O’Hare for the last seven years and has been working rotating shifts for most of that time with the bulk of his shifts starting in the evening and rotating around to overnight shifts. The witness is a trained weather observer and a graduate of the FAA training academy with multiple years of experience.

The witness recounted his story as reported, no deviation on the story and when asked questions meant to cause deviation, the witness corrected the investigator and stood by the story as he reported. The witness reported that he was at the very most 20-25 feet from the entity and that he stood at the window observing it as it foraged on the ground. When I asked him what it looked like it was searching for the witness advised that he had no idea. The witness stated the skin of the wings was membrane like and resembled stretched out skin similar to that of a bat. I asked the witness if he felt any feeling of dread of impending danger as reported in similar sightings and the witness reported no such feelings present during or after the sighting. When I asked about the other witnesses who he reported also seeing, the witness stated that both were airport workers but he had no idea who they or or how to contact them. When I asked him about the reports that others have had, the witness stated that there are sightings of a winged being quite frequently, they are just never really disseminated to the public for a variety of reasons such as the witnesses not wishing to report them. He stated that people do talk about the sightings but many just never go forward with reporting them due to fear of ridicule, job loss or not having an outlet to report the sightings. I gave the witness my contact information and advised him that he is free to share the information with other potential witnesses wishing to come forward.

It is the investigators opinion that the witness is credible and that his report appears valid and worthy of further investigation. The witness was asked and he agreed to have other investigators contact him for follow-up questions.

Have you had a sighting of a flying humanoid or huge bat-like creature in the Chicago, Illinois metro area / Lake Michigan region? The entity has also been referred to as the 'Chicago Mothman', 'Chicago Owlman' & 'O'Hare Mothman.' Please feel free to contact me at lonstrickler@phantomsandmonsters.com - your anonymity is guaranteed. Our investigative group is conducting a serious examination of his phenomenon. We are merely seeking the truth and wish to determine what eyewitnesses have been encountering. Your cooperation is truly appreciated. You can call me directly at 410-241-5974 as well. Thanks.

Investigation: 'Glimmer Man' / Canine-Like Humanoids in Comanche County, Oklahoma (Photos)

The following report was submitted by Phantoms & Monsters Fortean Research investigator Ryan Fusco. Ryan subsequently travelled to Comanche County, Oklahoma:

This case started back August 10, 2020 after Lon strickler asked me if I would follow up on a case of a guy named Steve who lived in Oklahoma who gave me permission to use his name this case. Basically started with a gunshot. Steve was nervous the second time this thing landed in his yard and he fired a round at it from a .22 handgun from there the rest is history.

It started out with photos and then videos. Steve was a pretty down-to-earth guy. He did not know anything about the UFO field as most people don't. We would be on calls that would last hours because I would end up explaining several things to him about the field. I am also taking the time to let the reader know that I am going to leave a lot of stuff out in order to be able to tell the story in a professional manner.

At the end of the month it escalated into them knocking on his door. Steve would send me photos that were hard to decipher. He would have to tell me what I was looking at just like I'll be doing to the readers here. Finally we decided to go live on Messenger. That night I recorded a sound. After I heard it I tried to wake Steve up. He would not get up. I seemed to have startled whoever it was because they dropped a pane of glass. A week later Steve finally saw his first entity. It was a dog-like humanoid that he attempted to take a photo of (below). He described it as hopping over a fence about 20 yards from his house, as he startled it.

More photos and videos came in and live meets on Messenger, which started to decline because somehow all the sudden he wasn't able to do them. It was like someone put a force field over his home. I got more and more curious as the photos. Steve kept asking me if I would find him an affiliate to meet him in Oklahoma. I could not find one as the UFO investigator there hung up on him and the cops told him he was seeing things or drunk. Finally I made a decision to drive there at the beginning of November.

I arrived there on a midday afternoon. Steve was more than happy to see me. He couldn't believe I was in front of him. I started by taking a couple photos right off the bat. My phone images were reacting in the same manner as Steve's phone. It was making the photos look like they were painted. They would make faces in any images they could or they would place other images all over the photos. By 'they' I mean the entities.

In the above image, there was nothing in front of me except an empty field. There was one red light on the ground. Using night view on my phone this is what came out in the photo. To me it looked to be a UFO or a base that was hidden by a very clever form of deception, as I would learn later on.

The next day I was taking photos and videos. I saw this image in a tree (below). As I turned quickly around I felt I was being stared at. I can't say eyes because it was the 'glimmer man' effect. I couldn't believe it. If it was reading my mind it probably knew my heart was racing and I was also curious.

As I took the step it completely disappeared. Not knowing where whatever it was, I literally ran inside.

That night Steve and I were out on the back porch when all the sudden I saw a blue light disappear in a yard behind him. I told Steve to run and get his flashlight as we saw a red light flashing over the hill across the street. Steve came back and pointed the light across the road there it was for the first time. Aliens, entities, extraterrestrials, the unknown. Whatever you want to call it that was it. I could not believe what I was seeing. I was so happy / scared. I honestly was beside myself. Steve said that he never saw them come in like this before. Here are a series of photos I took. Though the camera phone is pixelated, it was much easier to see the beings with the naked eye.

I tried to take several photos, but my phone kept dying. Steve's dog was constantly chasing semi-visible beings. He would chase after them, but I would call him back as I did not want anything bad to happen to him. They would just appear out of nowhere.

The next day, I was getting ready to leave but I had car trouble, so I ended up staying that night. It good I did because it proved to be most active.

It started off the same way as the night before except there were less people at his residence that night. I was there by myself for about an hour. I did not go outside and stayed inside with the dog until someone got home. I took a photo of the front yard that night (above).

In the photo it seems like something is riding a mechanical device. I realize that it's difficult to make out. Then again, the naked eye was much more discernible. I don't know if these beings can cloak or manipulate the camera.

I later took a photo of the driveway. I could see an entity that has a long snout with a white tip and white eyes with reddish skin to the right of the photo. I zoomed in and circled him he said it looked like a a mosquito man. 

To make a long story short they were bringing a series of entities by the area every 10 to 15 minutes. As we begin to investigate further, hopefully we'll come up with more plausible images and theories.

I left the next morning, I had a 20-hour drive back to Pittsburgh thinking the whole way that I could not believe what I had witnessed. Although the photos are hard to look at sometimes and also hard to pick out these were the best photos I could take at the time. They always knew my phone was out and they always were trying to do something to distract it, as I can say that they were very intuitive.

I appreciate Steve's hospitality and plan to continue with the investigation. Much like David Eckhart's experiences, I believe Steve's encounters are another chapter of continued contact with these non-terrestrial entities.

NOTE: Phantoms & Monster's Fortean Research will continue to support Ryan in his work with the witness. There are other possible aspects and connections to this phenomenon, which need to be explored further. Any developments will be reported here or on the team website at CryptidHunters.org

Huge Canine Cryptid Encountered in Rural Sedgwick County, Kansas

2 woman were driving home at night near Wichita, Kansas when they encountered a huge canine cryptid standing on the side of a country road.

I recently received the following account:

"My daughter, who was still living at home in her first year of cosmetology school, and a friend had gone to Wichita, Kansas to a show. This was in the summer of 2008. On their way home, driving on a country road in Sedgwick County to cut over from a highway to our house, came around a bend in the road. Their headlights swept across the road in front of them and standing by the side of the road, near the guardrail of the concrete bridge, was a huge canine creature. The girls were so frightened when telling me that it took a bit to calm them down enough to get some sense out of them.

The road is a north south road, and the sighting was a quarter mile from town. The bridge is just a small one that goes over a runoff creek, and my guess is the dogman was too big to go under it but had to go over the road, and was coming up the draw from the creek bottom.

They were in the wrong place at the wrong time. My daughter's car was small, a little Chevy Cavalier, and she said the lights didn't reach this things face, so they didn't get an eyeshine, but it was huge. It was black, and the height and width of a cow, on all fours. All they could focus on was the muzzle and all the huge razor teeth when it peeled its lips back and snarled at them. She said it could have reached out and touched their car but it didn't. She screamed and she stomped on the gas, they were both looking behind once they got into town because they worried it was chasing them. She wiped her eyes and said "I think we saw a freakin' werewolf, Mom."

I seriously remember the hair standing up on the back of my neck.

After asking her if she was sure she hadn't seen a Sasquatch, and her saying, "Mom, you don't understand, it was the biggest wolf. Huge! And it showed its teeth at us! It wasn't a Bigfoot! It was, it was a werewolf!" I just had no idea what they saw, but they were very scared and I told her never drive that road at night. I felt kind of helpless.

Flash forward 10 years, and I hear a YouTube story about a "dogman," and the light bulb came on! OMG, this is what those two girls saw! Here in Kansas, of all places! I sent her the YouTube and she was pretty shook up, but relieved to know it was a real thing. When I showed her different pictures of the types, she said it was the 'Van Helsing' movie werewolf looking one, which scared ME!

If it helps to know, this area is about 2, maybe 3, miles from a river, which is east of the road they saw it on. They didn't get a good look at its feet as the backside of it was coming up an incline from the little creek, they saw the front, shoulders, chest, head and apparently teeth. Those were the details they gave me." GG

PRE-ORDER 'THE MARK OF THE BELL WITCH'

'The legend comes to life, centered on the 19th-century Bell family of Robertson County, Tennessee, near the town of Adams, along the Red River. From 1817-1820, the Bell family is tormented by an entity determined to exact fear and pain. This is a well-produced film by Small Town Monsters that details the folklore associated with this timeless Southern tale. I'm sure that you'll enjoy it.' - Lon Strickler

A Bizarre Night of Strange Creatures, Lost Time & Unexplained Events

A group of friends in New York state are moving one of the group to a new house. There are an unexplained series of events that occur during the move. Quite bizarre.

This account was recently forwarded to me for an assessment:

I have been stewing on this story for a while. This takes place in New York (Finger Lakes region) during the mid-summer.

It was my best friend's last day at his old house, which was filled with weird sh*t. I've experienced stuff there, and have a few experiences that can be boiled down to ghosts. All the way to feeling like my life was in danger, which is why I refused to spend the night there, as that was when the feeling came.

So this was their last day at the old house, getting all their stuff to their new house. I was helping them that day.

All I remember from that day is walking in the house and seeing the windows filled with dead flies; like more than I thought could be in a house, and then driving to their new house at night, which had to be at least 8 hours of missing time. I was confused, and I asked them, "where are we?" I was told, "we are in bumf*cknowhere town, on the way to the new house."

I said, "But we never got the rest of your stuff."

My friend's brother looked at me, concerned, and said "yeah, we did."

"What happened?" I said...and was just told, they would tell me later.

This is a story best to come from their mouth, as I cannot remember. It was just 8 hours - poof - gone, and only their word on what happened.

All they said was, I was very quiet the whole time when sh*t went down in the house.

We're driving, and noticed that there were no other cars on the road. Which is strange, as we are going through quite a few small towns, and it was still early in the night on a Friday.

The little brother mentions this; and as soon as he does, a bunch of cars come around the corner.

At this point, it's just circumstantial; but there will be a pattern. We keep driving, and we notice that all of the houses are completely empty; like, lights are on, but we see nothing in them. No furniture. Nothing. I mention this and 'boom' next house. we noticed people just standing in the window, staring at our car. We notice this in the next 3 or 4 houses. At this point, we are sh*tting bricks, and notice that this drive is taking way too long. They had only moved a few towns over, and this drive was taking well over an hour. It feels like we have been driving in a cornfield for a while.

My friend says, "What the f*ck is going on? We should almost be there by now."

Lo and behold, the cornfield ends, and we recognize where we are again.

Seeing a pattern yet? Because I didn't. And I said something that I regret to this day:

"Man, what other weird sh*t is gonna happen tonight?"

As soon as it came out of my mouth, I knew I f*cked up, and my friend and his brother started yelling at me, saying, why would I say that, and we get into a yelling match. We never argue.

My friend slams on the brakes. In front of us, is what I can only describe, as a BIG cat...like the size of a person with the head of an owl.

This 'whatever it was' struck so much damn fear into the three of us.

His little brother, a 20-year old dude who played football, just started crying, and I was on the edge, like I was going insane.

This sh*t wasn't making sense, and I was having a mental gymnastics show trying to figure this out.

My friend just stared at it; until he said, "someone grab their phone." His battery was dead from the time he was in the old house.

This woke me up and I went to grab my phone, and this "whatever" ran into the field, into the darkness as soon as I started pulling it out.

So, we finally get to the new house.

We pull in the driveway, and back into their parking space. When his brother says, "what the hell is that?"

We look up, and see, what I can say looked like a pure white bigfoot, crawling around like a spider. It has red eyes, and it just crawls away to the forest.

We sit in the car for 45 mins until their mother arrives.

No drugs or alcohol were taken that night; well, not until after we got into the new house.

The best logical conclusion I can come to is, there was a CO2 leak in the old house, and we were having a group hallucination. This is by far the weirdest day of my life.

I mention this now, because my friend said the new owners of the old house have a "for sale" sign on it. They were there for less than 2 years. I was told, they had a thriving daycare there for about a year and a half, and then suddenly closed it down." FH

NOTE: This is quite a bizarre series of events, but I doubt that it was CO2 induced or mass hysteria. There does seem to be some unknown supernatural reason for these events happening and realized by all involved. Lon

More Evidence of Bigfoot Activity at Bald Eagle State Park, Pennsylvania

A reader, who has a cabin near Bald Eagle State Park, PA, lists possible Bigfoot evidence that her and her family have found in the area.

I recently received the following account:

"Hi Lon, I have a cabin on the outskirts of Bald Eagle State Park (Centre County, PA), and I have had a few odd experiences that I could be considered a Bigfoot. I take my children hiking on an old logging trail on the outskirts of the park. I made a list of the experience below:

- During the summer I crossed over a stream where I found a large footprint along the water. The print was at least 14 inches long and 7 inches wide, and you could clearly see indents in the mud that were toes. 

- One a separate excursion we heard unusual vocalizations, chattering noises. Like someone who was trying to talk, and creating their own language. Within that language were distinct sounds that were very human-like. That day we were completely alone on the trail. 

- In the winter my husband and I decided to walk down the trail to see if the streams on the trail were frozen over. There was snow on the ground, and I know we were completely alone on the trail. On the way back to the car we heard a distinctive whoop followed by a wood knock. I made that noise back, and heard another wood knock. 

- One night this fall we were in our cabin, and opened the window because the fireplace had made the rooms too hot. Laying quietly in bed we heard this loud yell that was too loud for a human to make, but wasn't an animal. After this yell, all these coyotes started howling/barking. It was very strange, and a bit scary. The cabin is less than a mile from where we had the initial experiences on that trail. 

I've attached pictures of the footprint, and footprints that someone had captured in the park from a drone, along with the GPS coordinates for the start of the trail, 41.03150265  -77.00992021

I enjoyed your article, and look forward to hearing from you." CS
