A South New Jersey man recalls his experience, while with friends, at the abandoned Brooksbrae Brick Factory. The witness swears that he encountered a werewolf!
I received the following account:
"Hi, my name is Jorge. I had a bizarre encounter close to the abandoned Brooksbrae Brick Factory in Manchester, New Jersey. To start off, my brother has taken me to this place before. I thought it was pretty cool, so I decided to go back there with a group of friends one night, and to my horror, we encountered something that I never thought would be real.
So as I stated above, my friends and I came back to the Brooksbrae Brick Factory to explore it shortly after my brother took me with his friend Harold. He warned us never to come back there at night, but we didn’t heed Harold’s warning seriously to never come there at night. He told me it was because he’s had some other experiences there that haunted him for a long time thinking that he was joking around about that. But to fast forward to the story, my group of friends and I decided to go to the abandoned brick factory. When we arrived we decided to go towards the path that leads to the factory, and as soon as we got there we felt an eerie presence and we felt like we were being watched.
My friends and I were a little spooked, and as our eyes darted all along the wood line I spotted something. In the wood line up ahead I saw something that shouldn’t be possible or that shouldn’t exist. To my horror, there was what looked like a werewolf. Its piercing yellow eyes were staring into my soul, and it gave me the creeps when I was looking at it. To describe it, It was very tall, abnormally tall, and I would say about 9-10 feet tall at the head, with large wolf life or dog-like perked ears and a long snout. Its body was similar to the build of an Olympic bodybuilder, with large muscles that were visible through the mass of fur that was standing there. But its head was similar to a German Shepard or a Wolf, and its hands ended in claw-like digits. I blinked to make sure that this wasn’t in my imagination, and to my horror, my friends reacted to it as well.
My friends also saw this eerie presence, and they were all startled. To me, it felt like it was beckoning me to come closer, and its stare was so quiet and soul-piercing, which both weirded me out and gave me the same sensation a deer would have when seeing headlights. It felt like it was waiting for the perfect time to strike, and I felt a primal sense of fear when looking at this creature. It kind of also reminded me of an Egyptian Jackal, except this shouldn’t be real.
The creature didn’t do anything but stare at us and make us feel intimidated, and once we felt like it was gone we ran out of that area. To this day, I’m still not exactly sure of what I saw, but when my brother showed me an illustration of a dogman it made me shudder with fear. Whatever I saw that night looked just like the illustration my brother showed me, and to this day I’m still in disbelief with what I saw. I will never go back to that location. I felt like I was in danger the entire time and I felt like this creature was trying to intimidate us and warn us to never come back to its territory. In conclusion, I don’t know what I saw that night, but I hope I never meet it again, and things really do go bump in the night. Be careful out exploring in the Pine Barrens, and never go to the Brooksbrae Brick Factory at night.
