GRAY, HAIRLESS CRAWLER HUMANOID Encounter Near Lake Camelot, Illinois

"I heard my friend gasp so I looked over at him and he was looking forward into the trail. Something was crouched down on the edge of the trail."

The following account was forwarded to me:

“Two friends and I were walking on a trail in the woods near Lake Camelot, Illinois at 10 pm on October 25, 2017. We usually walk on the trail all of the time so it isn’t something new or different to us. It isn’t like a paved out trail more like a trail we made ourselves because we walk the same path every time. I had a flashlight on and my two other friends did not.

I was pointing my flashlight to the left of me into the woods not really paying attention to what was in front of me because we usually don’t see anything odd. But I heard my friend gasp so I looked over at him and he was looking forward into the trail. I pointed the flashlight where he was looking and something was crouched down on the edge of the trail.

It was on the left side of the trail facing our direction. It looked very alert and frozen when we saw it and it saw us. I didn’t see it move and my friends didn’t either but we decided to run back the way we came from after we ran around 20 feet back we looked back and didn’t see anything.

My description of what we saw is a gray, small to medium-sized creature. I’d say around 4-5 feet tall but it was crouched down. The arms were not very skinny like some online pictures of aliens the arms were very defined and a little bit muscular. The arms looked human-like with 5 fingers. The legs on the other hand looked less human-like. I couldn’t see the feet but the shape and direction of the legs reminded me of frog legs. I couldn’t see the torso very well either.

The head was around the same proportion as a human head but the shape of the head was square with one point on each side of the head. I couldn’t identify if those were ears or something else. The creature was gray and either had no hair or very short hair. My two friends said it didn’t have hair but I thought it had short hair.

From what I saw the eyes were fully black. I didn’t see many features in the face.

It didn’t move and it didn’t make any sounds when we saw it although we heard squeaking noises earlier while walking. We thought it was a baby great horned owl but looking back at it they don’t sound like what we heard.

It just stared straight at us and we left and then turned around and didn’t see it again. I plan on going out there again with my two friends to see if we can find any more information.” J

NOTE: The incident report was forwarded to me by a local investigator. Lon
