Ady, Harford Ctyk, Maryland
Feb 1976
Account
Unnamed woman looked out window and saw sasquatch-type creature standing on her property, illuminated by lights from the cars of departing guests. Bob Chance was called. His search turned up nothing but a faint foul odour. Later the creature showed up again and the woman's husband and brother went out and got about 15 feet from it. I stood near the garden, swaying, and they went back to the house. The woman's grandmother then saw it out the window and screamed. When they looked again it was gone. Police were called but would not come.
