“My brother and I were spending the night at our grandparent’s house in Marion, Illinois. After a fun day of play in the garden and woodshed, we retired for the night. Of the three bedrooms in the house, we were to sleep in the middle bedroom. At some point during the night, I woke up and noticed a dark shadow on the wall opposite the window. It was a shadow of a large dog or wolf-like creature. There were no pets in the house to make such a shadow. I was so scared that I pulled the covers over my head and did not sleep the rest of the night.”
