Incident #1001454
Meyers, El Dorado Cty, California
Nov 1992
Account
Rita Stevans had just gone to bed when the motion-triggered lights went on and she smelled a strong, rotten-egg-type smell. She looked out the bedroom window and saw a 6-foot, creature covered with brown hair walking up the bed of "our creek". It had arms down to its knees, facial features somewhat like a man, walked on two legs like a human, and she guessed weigher 250 to 300 pounds. It stopped, turned and looked at her for about 15 seconds, then went on down the creek, disappearing in the woods.
