A listener wrote me and talked about a sighting he had over 30 years ago, he says:
“My sighting was when I was driving home from my friends house. I made this drive all the drive at all times of the day and night. One fall night while driving my home I was driving westbound on West Mountain Rd. in Canton Connecticut. There is a an S curve in the road, and when I rounded the first bend I spotted a big dark hairy creature. The creature was bipedal with long dark hair, and was standing a little hunched over. I also noticed that its arms were longer and seemed to come down to about its knees. It took one bound and was out of site around the other bend. I stepped on the gas to try and see it again. When I rounded the curve it was no where to be seen. I then pulled over and rolled my windows down, then I turned off my engine so I could try and hear it. Not having any luck I got out of the car and walked into the woods to try and find it. I knelt down and got real quiet and tried to let my eyes adjust to the darkness. I wasn’t afraid of what I saw I honestly thought it might be someone joking around. I then heard a few crunches of twigs or branches breaking, along with an odor that smelled like a skunk. I also got the overwhelming feeling I was being stalked or watched closely, so I decided to leave.I didn’t say anything to anyone about this because I felt they would think I was a nut.”
