📝 Description
I was driving home from work about 2 weeks ago, and my grandma and I saw a 4 1/2 foot tall creature. It RAN across the road about 50 yards in front of us. It was all black, shaggy, and upright. It moved almost like a shadow. My grandma's lived in this town for over 20 years and "never saw anything like that."It wasn't bulky enough to be a bear, and I can't think of any other animal it could have been.I'd normally chalk it up to one of life's mysteries, except when my grandma was coming home from dropping me off at work again, IT WAS IN FRONT OF OUR G-DDAMNED HOUSE.
