One evening, when she was sitting with the children, the witness suddenly felt a cold, terrible chill, accompanied by a feeling of need to examine the child. The nursery was dimly lit by a small night light. She entered the room hesitantly. A dark figure caught her eye. 

She saw a man who looked like a gnome dancing in the corner near the crib. He was as tall as a two year old child and was dressed in Old World clothes: knee-length breeches, suspenders, or a vest over a loose-fitting shirt. He had long hair, mustache, and beard, and was unkempt. 

Without taking her eyes off the strange creature, she walked slowly to the crib, picked up the sleeping child, and carefully backed out of the door. 

Others saw strange dark figures running around the house. It was also reported on another phenomenon.

Original news

Location. Wauwatosa, Wisconsin
Date: 1974
Time: night
One evening, while baby-sitting the witness suddenly felt a cold, creepy chill come over her, accompanied by a sense of urgency to check on the baby. The nursery was dimly lit by a small night-light. She entered the room hesitantly. A shadowy figure caught her eye. She saw a “gnome like” man, dancing in the corner near the crib. He was about as tall as a two-year-old child and was dressed in Old World clothing; knee length britches, suspenders or a vest, over a loose fitting shirt. He had longish hair, a mustache, and a beard, and was unkempt. Never taking her eyes off the queer creature, she walked slowly to the crib, and picked up the sleeping baby and cautiously backed out the door. Others had seen strange shadowy figures running about the house. Other phenomenon was also reported.
