Witness Account:
My mother and I and one of my friends were traveling north on FM 1008 between Dayton and Kenefick TX. I believe it was late evening or early night. All three of us watched a very tall creature completely covered with hair from head to toe stand at the side of the road and disappear into the woods. All three of us saw the same thing. I will talk to my mom and get her to recall the incident.
Additional observations:
Tall and hairy.
Investigator's Observations
Investigator(s): Daryl Colyer
This investigation was conducted as a result of an incident that allegedly occurred in Liberty County, Texas, in 1990.
I talked with the mother and son regarding this sighting. I was unable to reach the third witness.
The witnesses described the creature's face as "creepy" and "not human." The coloration was unclear. "Dark" was used to describe the subject as "brownish-black." The encounter did occur at night and it was very short-lived. The son, who was not driving, reported that he saw the subject turn and walk into the woods on the same side that it was standing as their car passed.
The mother asked whether or not the subject could have been a bear, but the son told her that in no way was it a bear; it was clearly bipedal, quite large, was very tall, dark and hairy with a "creepy" face.
This general location has continued to generate sightings right up to present day.
