A Killeen, Texas man reports seeing a 'Glimmer Man,' as well as a few other unexplained beings & creatures in the area. Very interesting account.
The following account was forwarded to me by my friends Cam & Kyle at Expanded Perspectives:
"I just listened to one of your recent episodes about a Glimmer Man. I haven’t been able to make heads or tails of this.
I live on the very southern edge of Killeen, Texas. I am surrounded by huge ranches and the country. A couple months ago, I was on my way to the nearest gas station to grab a couple of beers for the night and it is a little over four miles to get around the ranch I live by, to get to the gas station. It’s central Texas, with scrub oaks, cedars, Cacti, Yuccas, and such, so it’s hilly and scrubby, but has its open areas.
Anyway, about the mid-point of my trip, I get to a stop sign, turn left, and go up this hill. I’m accelerating and keep looking down at the speedometer to check my speed. I finally get to speed, turn on the cruise control so I don’t have to worry about it, and then I go back to paying attention to my surroundings. There are a few things that bother me with this story and it’s why I’ve held off submitting it. As I crested the hill, still on my way to get some beer, I saw a Glimmer Man. Plain and simple. I only noticed it as I crested the hill. It was on the left side of the road. It seemed to be upright but quickly squatted to all four and ran across the road. I don’t really think it was a man though.
I first noticed movement off to my left, actually on the left shoulder (it was a two-lane road). What I then saw was a figure; it squatted to all fours. It galloped across the road and crossed it in three “gallops.” It moved like it was bipedal, but was moving on all four. It seemed to be made of water, but a “softer” water; if that makes sense and it was huge. I’m 6 foot tall and it made me feel small. It was around two in the afternoon when this occurred. I think what I saw was the light reflecting off of the figure. That’s how I was able to see it. Two other things bother me about this and make me question myself.
They are:
1. The thing I saw, well, looked like a dogman, well that or the creature from the 'Alien' film franchise. I saw many teeth, long, muscular limbs, a slender torso, and what seemed to be pointed ears but they were laid back. I saw the teeth, head, body, and limbs (which were distorted because they were moving so fast). I’m not going to lie; if I would’ve had something in my bladder, I’d have soiled myself. I still haven’t come to terms with it.
2. This exact same SPOT, not area, but spot, my grandson was in the back of my Jeep. We were going to the same gas station. I had the top and doors off which gives you a pretty good view of everything. So while traveling through this same spot, my grandson said he saw a kangaroo. This was approximately two years prior. I spent several months, after his comment, scouring the area as I drove through, looking for a kangaroo. I’ve had no luck spotting one yet. Now, that I’m retired from the Army; I’ve met people from everywhere. One of my close friends from Jay, TX used to have wallabies as pets when he was a kid. So not out of the realm of imagination. However, it’s goats, cattle, and horses around here because the land is so rough.
I kept close watch through there for months afterward, to see if I could spot it. All I saw were roadrunners, turkeys, deer, and such. I have no clue what he could’ve seen. However, after much reflection, the only thing I can think of is the backward knees and upright stature. Maybe that’s why he called it a kangaroo. My grandson was 7 years old at the time.
Since my sighting, I’ll go to the gas station to grab a beer and bring my dog with me. She’s a Great Dane/Catahoula mix and really just looks like a huge hound dog. Anyway, the first couple of times I took her through that very area, she’d go nuts as if she’d smelled something. She’d run back and forth from one side to the other. The third time, last week, she started growling when we went through there. I still didn’t see anything but the area where she growled was the same place where the aforementioned instances occurred. I don’t know what to make of it and haven’t said anything to anyone. I’m just wondering what y’all think of it or am I just going crazy and paranoid. Very Respectfully, Jason"
