This creature was sighted at night, and twice it was
trying to attract the attention of a homehowner by
making scratching sounds on the outside of it's door
and walls. When the home owner opened the door, the
creature stood there looking at him, then fled away
into the woods, hissing. It was also reported to have
been shot by a group of men searching for it, when
shot it seemed unharmed and fled at a speed greater
than a human could move.
At the time of the creatures sightings, there was also
a large number of UFO reports in the same area.
Webmasters Comments About This Case:
The area is the location of one of the most thickest
and unsearched wooded areas of the country, called
the 'Shawnee National Forest'.
The state was also the native home of at least 5 different
native american (indian) tribes. The indians said the area
was very spirtual, and they often reported visitors from
the skies, as well as glowing and moving orbs of light,
terrifying souonds at night and more in the area of the
creatures sighting. Early white settelers used to say the
area was cursed.
It's interesting that like lots of other creature sightings,
there was a lot of UFO activity at the same time. Also,
take note that instead of knocking etc, the creature made
scratching sounds on the walls and door of a house to get
attention, if you research cases of demonic activity, you
will note that scratching sounds in the walls is often one of
the first stages of infestation.
