The witness, Scarlett, was resting on her bed after a long, stressful day. Looking out the window, she saw a strange creature about 7 feet (2.1 m) tall. Terrified, she couldn't move and could only stare at the creature. 

It was perched in a tree about 50 feet (15.2 m) from the ground about 50 feet from the house across the yard. The creature had large bright red glowing eyes that stared deathly into the witness's face. 

Finally  she plucked up the courage to close her eyes and put her head under the covers when suddenly a figure flew to the window and hit her. Terrified, the witness ran away screaming. Years later, she saw a drawing of the infamous point pleasant Moth and realized it was the same type of creature.
