I was 18 and a senior at Columbus East High school at the time this occurred. There is a park directly across the street from my house. It was a warm spring night. I was doing a report for school and it was getting rather late and I was the only person still up at the time. I was, to my best guess, 1:30 AM. I had just broken my last pencil and I needed another one to finish my report. I had to go outside to my car to get one. I had just shut the door to my truck to go back inside when I hear the most God-awful shrill scream in my life. I turned around quickly and could make out the vague outline of a large man-like creature running through the park and back into the woods. The scream lasted for about six seconds. Needless to say I high tailed it back into the house. I told my parents in the morning and they said that they had hear nothing and that I all I hear was a cat. The next day I pulled up a bigfoot website and listened to some wav files and the sounds that I heard were identical to what I had hear the previous night.
Classification:
Unclassified
Additional Details / Notes:
ALSO NOTICED: As I went out to get my pencil from my car I noticed that it was incredibly silent, no bugs or any type of noise. I quickly dismissed it as nothing.
OTHER WITNESSES: no
OTHER STORIES: no, none what so ever.
TIME AND CONDITIONS: This occurred at 1:30 in the morning. Across the street from my house there is one street light for illumination. The moon was very bright that night I do remember. When I saw was outlined by the moons natural light.
ENVIRONMENT: There is a large plain the extends for app. 200 yards. There is then a narrow tree line(25 yards)and after that you cross into my neighborhood. Once in my neighbor hood you come to a small lake surrounded on all sides by trees except for the east side. This opens up into the park. The park is maybe 200 yards long then the woods begins again. I could see the creature moving away from the lake and running back to the woods. ——————————————————————————–
