Terrifying HUMANOID Shocks Commuter Bus Riders in Chicago Suburb!

A Naperville, Illinois resident is on a commuter bus one night when an unknown bizarre humanoid attempts to board the bus. Everyone, including the driver, was shocked. What was it?

I recently received the following account:

"It was a wild night, one that I'll never forget. The date was September 1, 2020. I live in Naperville, Illinois. I was headed back home on a public bus, I believe it was a PACE, and I was pretty much alone. Just me and the bus driver and one or two other people. That in and of itself was strange, but I'm not sure that was related.

Anyways I board the bus and the bus driver is stopping off at plenty of locations. We arrive at one where there's little to no light around it, no streetlamps, no houses or buildings, no nothing. The only thing illuminating the scene was the dim light inside the bus and the headlights. The bus driver opened the doors and nobody budges, but as the bus driver began to close the doors, we heard these really heavy footsteps come out of nowhere. Then I heard the most god-awful sound I have ever heard. It wasn't quite screaming, it wasn't singing, but it sounded angry. The bus driver began to open the doors again for the 'thing' to the board, but as soon as it came into eyesight, nobody wanted that....that thing...to board this bus. The driver shut the doors as quickly as he could and this creature became infuriated.

It was wearing women's clothing, an orange shirt and an orange hat with some shorts (it had been hot here). But that thing was not like any woman I've ever seen. I don't even know how to describe it. It could have the power to shapeshift if that's a thing. This thing, it was a she, or at least wanted to appear so, began pounding on the bus doors, howling its angry, screaming song. It went on for a long time. The bus driver was clearly in shock and confused and downright scared, as he should be. Hell, I was scared too!

I don't think any of us knew what to do. And at the same time, we weren't sure if this thing would follow us? If we did let the creature in, would it harm us? Kill us even? Would it chase after us if we didn't? If we called the police, and it left, would they even believe us? It wasn't any kind of cryptid like Bigfoot or the Chupacabra. Was it an extraterrestrial life form? It is an experience I will not forget ever in my life. The first thing I did when I arrived home was look up anything similar, to no avail.

So, after these 3 years, I decided to report it. I know that you have been involved with the Chicago Mothman sightings investigation, but is it possible that this 'thing' is related?"

Welcome to Phantoms & Monsters 'Personal Reports' - cryptid & unexplained accounts directly from the archives of Phantoms & Monsters, and the Phantoms & Monster Fortean Research team. Narrated by Lon Strickler. Join us in the chat, discuss, and ask me questions about the accounts.

Featured in this edition:

According to the Diné Navajo people, Skinwalkers are shapeshifting witches who conduct all sorts of terrible things. These beings can make people sick and commit murders. They are graverobbers and necrophiliacs. They are greedy and evil entities who must kill a sibling or other relative to be initiated as a Skinwalker. They supposedly can turn into were-animals and can travel in supernatural ways. I will present several real-life encounters with these malevolent beings!

I will describe the reports and incidents, and then answer all questions from the chat room.

YOUR SUPPORT IS APPRECIATED! THANKS
