I've been going back over old reports and decided to ask if anyone has any further information on this cryptid encounter in Alberta, Canada? This occurred in November 2017.
"Hi, Lon. I've heard some good things about you. Recently I think I may have encountered a cryptid of sorts that I have dubbed the giant "Canadian Spider Bat", because of its spider-like mouth and bat-like appearance. Also because it sounds cool. I'd like to tell you about the encounter now.
This happened a week or so ago. I don't know exactly what time it was, but it was dark. I live on a farm. I was walking home after putting our farm animals to bed when I passed an old, practically fallen-down barn on our property. (It's in bad condition. It nearly collapsed on my mother once upon a time) I glanced at the barn as I neared it, and witnessed a huge, bulky, maybe winged thing duck away into the barn incredibly fast. It seemed to me like it cowered away when I looked at it like it didn't want to be caught watching me. It was huge, seemingly too big to fit through the large open window at the front of the barn where it appeared to be perched. Its eyes were tiny and glistening white.
Once I saw the thing, I ran as fast as I could for my house. I felt a sensation that made me feel like something was rushing towards me incredibly, but never reaching me. That's the only way I can explain it. I still don't like going outside on my own when it's dark, and that barn freaks me out a bit. Once in a while, I hear noises from seemingly within it. It sounds like somebody setting down a pile of wooden planks over and over. It could be an echo from elsewhere on the property, but I don't know. I also feel like it may have just been my mind playing tricks on me, but it seemed too unnaturally real. I feel like the barn is watching me whenever I pass it." JK
