Excerpt:
THE LEGEND passed on down from
generation to generation was what folklores were made of. It started when a
couple of hunters went camping in the forest surrounding the town.
The
first night was uneventful. The second night, as the two friends turned in for
the night, a howling penetrated the woods. Wolves were not known to be a part
of that section of the state. Thus, the sound caught them by surprise.
The
two men decided to let it slide. In their minds, the howling was nothing more
than a figment of their imaginations.
Several
minutes later, they heard it again. The howling sounded like it was close to
camp, directly from the side of their tent. Full of curiosity, they decided to
check things out.
A
shadow, caused by the flickering fire, was cast against the canvas of the tent.
The outline filled the entire canvas, its size unknown. Before they could
react, claws ripped through the material.
Not
concerned with leaving anything behind, the two men bolted, hoping to make
their escape. They turned along the way and caught a glimpse of a creature they
had never seen before.
It
stood on two legs, a small tail swishing back and forth behind it. The creature
tilted its head and stared at the men. Moments later, it howled, its eyes
glowing in the moonlight.
Both
men ran as fast as they were able. They made it back to their truck, starting
it as quickly as possible. In seconds, they were gone, leaving the unknown creature
behind.
The
next day, the men told anyone who would listen about their encounter. No one
believed them.
Bringing
the sheriff and other hunters back to their base camp, they found the camp in
disarray. Things had been tossed about. The tent was tattered, and footprints
that no one recognized were embedded in the mud.
The
renowned hunter, Stephen Bullock, was soon sent a casting of the footprints.
Even he was stumped.
From
that day on, a strange howling could be heard throughout the woods.
