'Hammerhead Shark' Alien Humanoid


Christian, 25, was living with his parents and his grandparents at a fairly large home in North Carolina “not far from the Brown Mountains.” In 1998, when he was around 6 years old, he recalls waking up very early in the morning and needing to use the bathroom. There were no street lights where he lived and it was quite dark at night. The bathroom was located at the end of a long hall on the top floor of the house. Christian's room was the only one on the top floor, aside from a smaller sewing room that his grandmother used. His grandparents and his parents all slept on the first floor so there shouldn’t have been anyone else on that floor. Also, the grandmother was adamant that the sewing room door stay closed when she wasn't using it. On this night, Christian recalls waking up and feeling “strange”. He began walking down the hall to the bathroom and observed that the door to the sewing room was open, something he found that to be quite odd. When he looked in the room, he saw a dim bluish light coming from the window which was directly across the from the door, on the other side of the room. He also saw a silhouette of a figure standing in the window. This figure, which stood 5 feet tall, seemed to have the head of a hammerhead shark. “It was flat and elongated almost in a Y-shape but if you bent the tips flat.” As he stared at the figure, trying to understand what he was seeing, the entity began to rock back and forth. This terrified Christian who ran back to his room and hid under the covers. The next thing he felt was being in a sort of black void, but not a void. He had trouble describing it. “It felt like I was not anywhere,” he said, like he didn't exist in any time and space. When he woke up the next day, he told his grandparents who took him to see a doctor after they noticed burns and peculiar circle and rectangle marks on his left arm. The doctor thought they were rug burns but, later, upon thinking about it, Christian thought they looked like tool marks around burned flesh. He began having nightmares of lion faces soon after, including involving himself running in a long corridor and encountering one of these lion people. He attributed these dreams to anxiety from the sighting. He also claims that in 2003, he and his friend Daniel were walking home at night and observed a blue light hovering 50 feet over them. It zig zagged away and disappeared over a neighbor's house. He wonders if this was somehow connected to his creature encounter?

Beyond Creepy


Here's a similar account from Albert S. Rosales:

Location. Coteaux, near Trois Rivieres, Quebec, Canada
Date: July 27 1965
Time: 1630
10-year old Andre sees an object near the ground resembling a vertical binocular (2 cylinders 1m50 in height linked by bars) it makes zigzag movements at a low height in the sky and disappears behind a cliff. Andre briefly approaches the object, which seems to disappear and appear at, will. Later Andre returns to his home and inside encounters a strange being about 1.50m in height, with red scabrous skin resembling hard plastic, long arms and legs and an elongated and flat face. The being seems aggressive and afraid the witness flees.

Unknown Hairy Hominid Encountered Near Louisville, Kentucky


I received a telephone call from an eyewitness named 'Joe' who had a harrowing encounter with a supposed Bigfoot near Louisville, Kentucky.

On August 17, 2018, Joe and his 12-year-old son, were fishing on the banks of the Ohio River in Oldham County, Kentucky. It was late afternoon, so Joe decided that they needed to start walking back to the car before dusk. They had parked several miles away in Jefferson County and had hiked through the woods to reach their favorite fishing spot on the river.

As they were packing up, Joe's son said that he heard something unusual; but Joe was in a hurry and wanted to get a move on. They were loaded with gear, which included a bucket full of catfish. That's when Joe heard the 'whoop' sound coming from above them on the low bluff. As they walked a bit further, Joe spotted a large figure on top of the bluff looking in their direction. He didn't think much of it, but noticed that it was following them.

Joe had his son lead in front of him out of caution. He always carried a sidearm when he was in the woods. Joe was raised in the Tennessee mountains and was a skilled outdoorsman, but he was always aware of his surroundings. He then heard a low growling coming from behind him. Then suddenly a fist-sized rock landed on the trail behind him. He told his son to move faster so that they could get back to the car as soon as possible.

After hiking for approximately 30 minutes, and avoiding 2 more hurled rocks, they finally reached their car. Joe told his son to get in the car as he loaded the trunk with the gear. As he finished and opened the driver's side door, he observed the creature standing about 40 foot away near the edge of the woods. He was stunned at what he was looking at! Was this a Bigfoot?

Joe and his son were both sitting in the front of the car and watching the huge bipedal creature standing to the left of them. Joe states that it stood at least 7 foot in height and was very muscular. 'This thing looked like it was wearing football shoulder pads' Joe explained. 'The cone-like head had no neck and was just sitting on its shoulders. I've never seen anything like it!' He said that the face was like a human man, but the features were 'flat.' It had auburn hair on the body, except for the face, feet, knees, elbows and chest; similar to the hair on a 'horse mane.' The skin had a 'purplish hue to it.' It was 'top-heavy and all muscle' with 'eyes that were black and large.'

Joe opened the side window to get a better look, despite the loud protests of his son. That's when he noticed the teeth, which the creature was now baring. He stated that he could see that the teeth, which 'looked like molars all the way around, and that there may have been double rowed.' Joe grabbed his sidearm and stepped out of the car. He instantly cocked the hammer, as the creature cowered and hid behind a large hickory tree. It was apparent that this beast was aware of guns. That's when Joe got a good whiff of the intense odor; what he described as week-old roadkill. The creature looked at Joe from around the tree, growled, then vanished. He had no idea where it had gone, and he wasn't going to stick around to find out.

Since that day, Joe has researched Bigfoot sightings in the area. Because of the features of this particular being, he was now beginning to question if this was actually a Bigfoot. None of the illustrations resembled what he had witnessed. He talked to other people who frequented the area where he fished, and it was obvious that this creature had made itself known to others. Joe was wary of making a report since he is well-known within his community, and he wanted to avoid ridicule.

Joe believes that the creature was curious, but was also defending it's territory. He has not returned to the area and doesn't plan to in the future.

NOTE: Honestly, I'm not sure about the validity of this report since it sounds somewhat similar to this account from last July - Menacing Bigfoot in Kentucky. Let me state that I'm presenting the report 'as is' and let you decide if it's real or concocted. Thanks...Lon

'Flying Witch' Observed Near Darien, Wisconsin


On February 25, 2019 I received a telephone call from an eyewitness 'NV' who stated she had observed a winged being that early morning at around 5:30 AM near Darien, Wisconsin.

NV was traveling west on Creek Rd. on her way to work. As she approached the Turtle Creek bridge she observed a large winged being that she described as a 'flying witch.' The being was at a tree-top altitude and was gliding in her direction. It was early dawn, but enough light available for NV to make out a form.

The winged being suddenly descended towards NV's car and barely missed colliding with the hood. NV described that the being's wing span was much wider than her car and that the body was a 'brownish color, like a 'paper bag.' The body looked feminine and slight. The wings were bat-shaped and very large. She never noticed the wings flapping. The speed in which it descended was 'not natural.' The face was unremarkable, almost 'blank.' NV noted that she swerved and almost hit the guard rail.

NV did not notice where the winged being flew to after the encounter. NV is of Hispanic descent and stated that the being looked similar to a 'witch' that was described to her as a child. NV was quite upset and worried that she may encounter this being in the future. Lon

Large Winged Biped Encountered in Woodstock, Illinois


I received a series of emails from the wife of the eyewitness 'TM'. I was able to talk to TM by telephone on 2/24/19:

Hello - My husband was returning home last night (Feb. 22nd - approx. 8 p.m.) from a trip to Walgreens. While driving home, he saw something 8 - 9 feet tall coming across the road from the DuField Pond entrance on Country Club Road in Woodstock, Illinois. He said it was approximately 1/3 the width of the road, 8 - 9’ tall, and part of it looked leathery - but he wouldn’t call it leather exactly.

He is interested in speaking to you about it, but this afternoon he didn’t seem ready to talk to you. I’ve asked him if he could sketch what he saw before he forgets. He indicated he’s NOT going to forget this.

Just wanted to give you a heads up, and wondered if you have received any other reports in the Woodstock, IL vicinity.

I subsequently received the following email after I made my inquiry:

Hi Lon - He said he will call you tomorrow if that’s okay. I was home when this happened, so didn’t see anything. All I know is I believe my husband. I did go out to DuField this morning because we’ve had snow/ice/slush to see if I could see any traces of whatever this was. There were a lot of tracks/prints near the entrance - mostly boot prints, but some did not look like boots. However. It was hard to tell. I took photos/videos of the area.


I then talked to TM, who stated that he was driving on Country Club Rd. near the entrance to the Dufield Pond Conservation Area in Woodstock, IL. Suddenly, a large biped ran out onto the road approximately 30 ft. ahead of him and quickly crossed to the opposite side. He said that he thought that it may have been a Bigfoot initially, but then noticed that it had a large set of membrane wings attached to the back, extending over the top of its head. He described the shape of the wings as that of a gargoyle. The body was 8-9 ft. in height and covered in dark fur. The arms and legs were well defined. He didn't notice any facial features. TM got an excellent look at the creature since his headlights illuminated it and the light from the conservation area backlit it as well.

He also stated that he had felt like it was a warning or harbinger of some kind. He did mention 'Nephilim' when discussing the encounter. It had upset him and that he was unable to talk about it until the next day. Lon




I later received a sketch and a statement from TM's wife:

TM’s sketch is attached. It is more of an outline. The yellow at the bottom represents his headlights. The yellow at top is the light at the DuField entrance. DuField conservation is a pond. Not sure if these things are attracted to water?


I contacted Tobias Wayland of the Singular Fortean Society and Phantoms & Monsters Fortean Research and asked him to contact TM and schedule an on-site investigation. Woodstock, IL is 61 miles northwest of Chicago. Any further information will be posted. Lon
