"It literally looked like something out of 'Dog Soldiers,' only more muscular. This creature burst through the brush, ran down the slope through the creek, and then disappeared on the other side."
I received the following account:
"So, I NEVER believed in the supernatural until I was about 18. My friends and I played with a Ouija board (a story for another time). Anyway, after the ensuing craziness from that escapade, I became a full-on believer.
Now, on to the actual sighting. I live in a very rural part of Mississippi, and I believe my town has around 247 people in it. Everybody knows everybody. Weird things have happened before, like animals being slaughtered or going missing—that sort of thing. Naturally, we chalked it up to coyotes or other critters.
I'm an avid hunter, so I was heading out to the woods with my bow, a fully decked-out Matthews Creed. I set out a little earlier than usual, so it was still pretty dark. I've never minded the woods before, so all I planned on doing was relaxing in my stand for a while since I didn't feel like stalking today.
It wasn't too far from dawn, so the birds and other wildlife were starting their morning calls. Usually, it’s pretty peaceful, right? I swear to God, in the span of a second, everything in that patch of woods went completely silent at the same exact time. Dead silence. It didn't even attempt to be subtle, that alone scared the hell out of me.
So naturally, my scared self froze and just listened for anything. My first thought was, 'Oh, shoot, something's out here with me!' which freaked me out even more. Then I began to think maybe it was just a bear or a bobcat—both of which I still feared meeting up with, but at least it offered a logical explanation.
I figured I could hear a bear coming, but I knew big cats were renowned for stalking without their prey knowing, which terrified me even more. I decided to keep moving toward my stand, post up, and point my bow down the tree. After what felt like forever, I finally made it. I shuffled up the stand, pulled out my knife just in case, and listened intently.
Dawn was definitely breaking now, which made me feel better. Still, no sounds of wildlife, which was growing increasingly eerie. My stand is perched on the side of a creek, which wasn't very deep—maybe up to your ankle. The only sound I could hear was the slight noise of the running water. Then I heard something to my right that was running fast. I instantly raised my bow and waited. The noise got louder and closer.
I almost screamed when I saw this thing. It literally looked like something out of 'Dog Soldiers,' only more muscular. This creature burst through the brush, ran down the slope through the creek, and then disappeared on the other side. I've seen some crazy things, let me tell you, but I was shaking like a newborn babe. I didn't ease off my drawstring for like 10 minutes, which is a LONG time to hold a bow, FYI.
I mean, this thing was HUGE—like 6'5" to 7'5", 250 pounds of 'NO!' And I've seen bears and similar animals before; they do not run like that. Anyway, after that, the sun really started to rise, and the birds began chirping. I calmed myself down and quickly got out of there. While I was terrified at the time, it's definitely going to be one of my coolest memories to look back on. I'm just going to move my stand and hunt elsewhere." E
