2 HALF CANINE, HALF HUMAN UPRIGHT CREATURES Encountered by Ohio Brothers

Two brothers were camping near the Pickerel Creek Wildlife Area, Ohio when they experienced an encounter with 2 upright creatures, that were described as half canine, half man.

I recently received the following account:

"Hi. This event occurred in northwestern Ohio in the summer of 2018. I was camping with my brother along Lake Erie near the Pickerel Creek Wildlife Area just west of our home in Sandusky, Ohio.

So, that first night, we went to sleep early. I woke up at around 2:30 a.m. because I had to take a leak. My brother was fast asleep. The moon was almost full that night so it gave off plenty of light for me to see everything outside the tent. There weren't many bushes in the area around our campsite so I didn't have to worry or be afraid of something hiding and waiting to sneak up on me. I was walking away from our camp when I saw something that scared the crap out of me not far from me. There were two dog-like creatures just standing there staring at me! When I say 'standing,' I mean on two legs!

I completely freaked out and I started running back to the tent. I heard what sounded like they were chasing after me and making the strangest noises. Not so much a dog or wolf sound but more of something like a human! It was the scariest sound I had ever heard. I was too afraid to turn around. I thought that at any second they would pounce on me and attack but that never happened.

When I did make it back to the tent I dove into it. I scared the crap out of my brother, who asked what was going on. I told him what had just happened. He gave me a strange look and then laughed, telling me to shut up. I told him if he didn't believe me to go out there himself and see. He laughed again and said, "Sure thing. I have to go anyway." So I sat there and I watched him stand up and head out of the tent. I knew that this was serious and I couldn't let him go out there by himself, so I followed him out of the tent and into the darkness.

My eyes took a few seconds to adjust but I could see him standing about 20 yards away staring off at the trees. I walked over next to him and I looked in that direction too. We were staring into pitch-black woods, but then as my eyes adjusted I could see something in the shadows. It was a part dog part man creature. It didn't move or growl it just stood there upright and looking at us. The dog part, the upper half, looked like a German Shepard, but with yellow eyes and a dog-like head. The human part started about mid-torso downward. It was standing there on two legs like a man. The upper part was hairy like a dog but the bottom half was hairless like a human man.

I whispered to my brother and asked what he thought it was. He said nothing. He was literally paralyzed with fear and shock. I grabbed him and pulled him back to the tent. As we ran back, the creature let out a horrific howl. The sound of that thing echoed through the trees. It was like nothing I had ever heard before. We dove into the tent and piled our backpacks and gear in front of the entrance as if this would offer us protection. We were both absolutely terrified. He was shaking and I felt like I had to throw up. I asked him what we should do now and he said that he didn't know but if this thing got in our tent it would kill us for sure!

Then we heard a dog howl in the distance and we started to feel relieved, even though I knew that it may have been the second creature that I had encountered earlier. Then it was answered by another howl closer to us like, right outside the tent! It had followed us! We then heard scratching and digging sounds. We were both screaming hysterically at this point! Then it stopped and there was nothing but silence. We waited inside the tent for at least 15 minutes, hoping that it had left. We decided to risk it and peek outside the tent. I grabbed the flashlight and peeked through the flap. I saw nothing. I waited a bit longer, but then I looked out into the campsite. There was nothing there.

We decided to stay put in the tent until daylight. There was no way that we were going to walk through the dark woods toward my car in an attempt to escape these creatures.

After what seemed like forever, the morning light started creeping through the forest canopy. We both slowly exited the tent and looked around us. There were large canine and human-like prints all around the campsite, especially in a circle around the tent. We quickly gathered all of our gear and started to hike quickly toward my car, which was parked in a lot about a half mile away.

When we reached the car, the first thing that I noticed was a terrible stench. I didn't know what it was but the odor was very strong. It was so strong that we smelled it after we got it and drove off. My brother believes that the creatures may have found the car and marked it as theirs. I wasn't sure if that was true but the stench lingered in the car for days.

When I got home, after dropping my brother off at his apartment, I started looking online in an attempt to find answers. I read several accounts about 'Dogman' sightings throughout Ohio, but none were from the area where we had been.

That was 5 years ago. My brother and I still enjoy the outdoors, but we have not returned to the area of our encounter. We are both more aware of our surroundings when hiking and camping. But we just do not talk about the encounter with each other." LP

NOTE: I contacted the witness for further details. We do have team members who live in the area, so I will refer the incident to them for investigation. Lon
