Summary: ANIMAL SKINS TAKEN BY BF, REPLACED WITH DEAD DEER

Sighting Text:
* Matt from NC, tells of his Cherokee grandfather. In the old days they would hang game skins...deer, bear, up to dry. The next day the skins would be gone, but two dead deer would be left in their place. They called the creatures Hairy Men. Tried to ambush one night, but scared the creature away, and it never returned.

NC 1997 TR89 * The Green Swamp Monster, report from GSARC_GA@webmail.bellsouth.net (Georgia Swamp Ape List). North Carolina, Hy. 211. Witness and friend were collecting rattlesnakes in large swamp in SErn NC in August, 1997. Only finding two snakes that morning, they were headed home. Near the club house of a black bear hunting club, they came around a blind corner, and there was what appeared at first to be a small black bear at the trash can...it stood up and looked directly at the snake hunters, and was 4-5 foot tall, dark gray-black (gray on chest and stomach), face remarkable...expression of fear when it saw them at 20 yards away, arms notably long, no hair on the hands, and legs appeared to be normal, except bowed when it ran away. The two tracks found were small. It lumbered into the swamp.

NC 2000 TR93 354344N 0814646W * Tim C. of Glen Alpine, NC, Jan. 8th, in the afternoon Tim was walking his two dogs (Chihuahua mix - T-Rex, and a multi-mix-Mr. Bojangles) along an isolated road, not more than a mile long, woods around for miles, and steep hill at one end with a sharp curve at the other “I was walking my dogs along, it was rainy and kind of misty, we got to the top of the hill when T-Rex(my Chihuahua mix) started to get a little spooked. We went on a little further when Rex suddenly stopped and growled at something in the woods. The hair was standing up along her back, she was really concentrating on whatever she saw. I looked real hard but could not see what she did. Then, there was kind of a smell that I haven’t smelled before. It was extremely strong and almost nauseating (I work part-time in an ER so it had to be really strong to get me sick!). I was getting an un-easy feeling about this situation so I turned around and started back to town. Rex pulled me all the way.”

Sighting Text:
TR 61 SEPT 96 we visited Jim and Diane Banks in their trailer house. Shirley had a couple of tales from the Carolinas. Around 1917 or so, near Greensboro, NC, three men in a mountain cabin with no windows open, heard a scream/howl noise. Whatever it was came on their wooden porch, and they could hear the thing's teeth clicking. They opened a shutter and saw a huge thing on two legs that made a loud scream. One of the three men was her dad.
