This report was taken on 6/1/11 in a 45 minute phone interview by Philip Spencer.
In the early spring of 2007 a young woman in Anderson County Kentucky got up from bed to let her pup out. The time was between 12 AM & 3 AM. She walked out on the porch of her house with the little dog and watched as the pup walked down the steps into the yard. The porch light was out on the porch and the family had been having some odd electrical occurrences over the last few days.
The porch was approximately three feet off the ground and there was a barn approximately fifty yards from the porch with a Mulberry tree which was about thirty feet tall to her left in the yard. The pup walked off the porch and then turned quickly and ran back up the steps and ran to the young woman's feet obviously frightened of something. The young woman was puzzled as to what the pup could be afraid of and she looked in the direction of the barn to see if she could see anything.
There was a security light on the side of the house and the moon was creating enough light where the young woman could see enough to see outlines and the tree lines. As the young woman looked in the direction of the barn she realized there was something between her and the barn at about 25 yards. What she was seeing was a dark form standing in what might have been a slight crouch. It was a humanoid form that appeared to be 4 to 4.5 feet tall. This form was dark in color and very stocky/bulky looking. She could not see any eyes or the face. Suddenly the creature ran at her, she could hear the animal running and the sound it made was that of a very heavy animal running with a thud to the feet hitting the ground. She stated to me that she did not see it drop to all fours that it was like she saw it standing then it was running. She gasped and when she did the creature turned sideways and ran at the Mulberry tree. She stated she could then see a very good side view of the creature. She said the creature looked to have somewhat shorter legs on the front and that it had a humped back. To her the head looked large and bulky compared to the body size of what she was seeing and she said she felt this creature was well over 100 lbs.
When the creature reached the Mulberry tree it jumped on the tree and climbed up the tree to the top and then launched into the air and flew in the direction of the barn. As the stunned young woman stood watching the creature fly away she stated she could see and hear the wings flapping and they wings were very large and the sound of the wings implied to her of a powerful flap.
She told me she stood on the porch and wasn’t sure what had just happened before her eyes but she grabbed the pup and went back inside.
The next day the woman was perplexed and very shook up by what she had seen and she kept trying to logically conduce what she had seen the night before. She was taking a shower the next day and as the event was all that was on her mind she froze as she thought she must have seen a demon. She is a woman who believes in God and when she thought she had seen a demon she prayed that it never come back and leave her family alone. That day the light on the front porch stated working again and the odd electrical problems ceased.
Conclusion: The young woman I spoke with was intelligent and well spoken. She was not on any medications at the time of the event and there were no unusual stresses in her life at this time, life was actually good as they were enjoying a new baby and she was a nursing mom. In my interactions with her on the phone she was lucid and steadfast in her recollections of what happened. Other than the sounds of the feet hitting the ground and the wings flapping there were no sounds from the creature.
She stated her family had ghosts events over the years but nothing like this had ever happened before or after this event. She told me this event changed the way she thought about something's and had an impact on her life. She said the creature put the thought of a gargoyle into her mind while she was witnessing the creature.
When the creature was standing she said at no time did it appear to have arms however, in the low light and as it was a dark color that would have been hard to determine. I find it very interesting how she was looking directly at the creature and it just seemed to suddenly be running. Could the front legs have actually been the wings? She stated the creature went up the tree like a cat, swift and moving quickly.
What did this young woman see and why was it there? Where did it go to and where did it come from? Well, one thing I know is this. This event happened near the Frazier land in Anderson County which is the area I wrote my book about and my movie is about, over 6000 acres of land. I have no idea why this area has so many strange unexplained events but to this day the reports keep coming in and they are told my credible and articulate people who I have no reason to doubt even though I approach things from a point of just taking the facts and looking for signs that the story is not true.
I have researched all kinds of strange going on in the nights from all across the country and as I have said for many years, there is much more lurking in the darkness than our old friend Sasquatch and we all need to remember that. When approaching an old Mulberry tree in Anderson County Kentucky late at night it might be best to look up…
