An Austrian witness describes a screaming or squealing creature that was shaped like a 'peanut.' They provided a sketch of what they observed. What was this creature?
The following account was forwarded to me:
"About 5 years ago during the summer, I had a really weird encounter with an animal/cryptid. I was on my laptop watching YouTube videos at like 1am when the noise started. I was wearing headphones and didn't give it much attention. At first, I assumed it was two cats because there had been a bunch of fights between the neighbor cats during the last few weeks. But when I paused the video, I realized it sounded very different. Like a mix of a screaming fox and a squealing pig. It was very high-pitched.
I didn't get up right away, because I was a little freaked out and was hoping it would just stop. But several minutes passed and it went on and on. It was seriously ear-piercingly loud and it got worse the more time passed. So I was like, OK, WTF is that? I went out onto the balcony of our house and looked down since the noise was coming from down there. And I saw an... animal? I think it was trying to push over our trash can and got frustrated.
From above, it had a bean or peanut-shaped body and didn't appear to have a tail, ears, or even a snout. Its head wasn't distinctively separated from the body, it was just... a peanut. It was a brownish colour, but I can't tell for sure, because it was illuminated by the orange street lights on the other side of the road. It had two stripes running along its body, similar to the markings of a baby wild boar. But it honestly looked like it didn't even have fur, it was just very smooth. Probably about the size of a French Bulldog. It also looked like it didn't have paws or hooves, its legs just kind of.... ended. I couldn't make out its face, because it was too dark.
Like the idiot I am, I instinctively said "Shhhh." because that's what I do when my dogs are being noisy. It immediately stopped squeaking and looked up at me. And then it turned and started stiffly hopping away on those weirdly thin legs. It was running away but didn't move very fast. I grabbed a blanket and ran downstairs as quickly as I could, my first thought being that it was a lost animal and I needed to catch it. I unlocked the door and ran out onto the street in my pajamas and with bare feet. I ran around the corner, since it headed in that direction, expecting to see it a few meters away (again, it didn't move very fast), but it was completely gone. There was no way for it to have gone into the neighbor's garden, because of the wooden fence. The rest of the street was completely empty as well, also being lit up by street lights. I walked up and down both directions of the road without seeing or hearing it at all. So I had to give up and go back inside.
My parents had woken up from me going down the stairs and were obviously confused. When I told them about what happened, they said they didn't hear a thing. They're both very light sleepers, so I couldn't believe that they didn't hear the incredibly loud noise it had been making for the past 10 minutes right outside our house. We have really thin walls too, I can hear someone having a conversation downstairs when I'm upstairs in my room. So for them to not hear that thing, but hear me running down the stairs was weird. My little sister said she didn't hear anything either, and she's also a very light sleeper. None of the neighbors heard anything either.
I live in Vorarlberg Austria by the way, some running onto the street in the middle of the night wasn't dangerous, after 11 pm there are literally no cars on the road anymore. We do live quite close to a bunch of fields, but the only animals that live in our area are hedgehogs, ferrets or weasels, mice, rats, and rabbits. Birds, frogs and snakes too of course. We also have a few farms close to us, but the only animals they have are cows, goats, and sheep. A coworker of mine said it could have been a badger, but it looked very different and didn't sound like one. Not to mention that there aren't any badgers that live in the area. I was hoping it would return, so I could find out what it was, but it never showed up again.
Of course, it was dark and already pretty late, so I guess my eyes could have been playing tricks on me, even though I highly doubt it. If any of you guys have an idea what animal it could have been, please let me know, because this has been bothering me ever since it happened. I've been calling it the "Peanut Cryptid" or "Bean Boy".
