Incident #992883
Dollar, Carroll Cty, Tennessee
about 1905
Account
Ida Jones and her brother and sister walking home from a party saw a thing that looked like a man but was covered with dark hair sitting out in a field beside the road. The moon reflected from its eyes. It turned its head as they went by. Mysterious screams "like a woman" were frequently heard in what was then a thinly settled farming community, but there was no noise on this occasion. Most of the area is now in the Natchez Trace State Wild Life area.
