"The moon was just bright enough for me to see a young woman squatting right next to our little two-man tent, digging at the ground with her bare hands."
I received the following account:
"I grew up with a very outdoorsy family in southern Indiana, we often went camping and hiking in the summer. My mother told this story to my sister and me about a time she went camping with my dad before we were born:
"I was in my tent, and it was the middle of the night, perhaps 1 AM, and I had woken up to go urinate, just like normal. I was about to unzip the tent when I heard a small scratching sound. I paused. It was a slow, deliberate crunchy, digging, kind of sound. It was too rhythmic for an animal, so after making sure it wasn't your father, who was sharing the tent, I unzipped a corner of the door and peeked out. The moon was just bright enough for me to see a young woman squatting right next to our little two-man tent, digging at the ground with her bare hands. Even your father was scared. So he went and shined a flashlight on her and told her to go back to wherever she had made camp. The woman got up silently, leaving a four-inch deep hole next to the tent, and started walking away. I went outside, relieved myself, and got back into my sleeping bag.
A few minutes later, I was awoken again by a clattering sound, of a person or animal walking around where we had put our stuff. I looked outside again, and the woman was crouched low, walking around our stuff and looking at things the way a monkey might. Your father stepped out of the tent, shined the flashlight on her again, and she faced him. He asked her to kindly leave their stuff alone, but she just stood there, dirty and neglected-looking, but clearly not malnourished, staring at his light. He gave up and went back into our tent.
Soon, we heard her digging again at her little hole, which was literally six inches and two pieces of thin nylon away from my head. I shouted for her to go away, and she ran away in an animalistic kind of way and never returned.
I fell back asleep, and in the morning, our stuff was scattered, but nothing was stolen."
My mother and father never did find out who the woman was. My mother believed that she may have been feral. They did report the incident to the local police the next day, but were never contacted afterwards." H
