Incident #1000148
Sechelt, South Coast Dis, British Columbia
Aug 1956
Account
Mike Amacher had a letter from a man who said he was one of three staying in a shack near Sechelt. One night one opened the door to go out, screamed and came back in the room. After he calmed down he said he had seen a huge creature standing in a doorway leading to a shed. Later the same month one of the men said rocks were thrown at him in the driveway leading to the shack, by a huge dark figure up on a bank. On further enquiry the informant refused a meeting with Amacher and said he had no more information.
