Около пустыни Святого Креста
CO
United States

The witness traveled through the desert and, after collecting food, retired to his tent. 

In the middle of the night, he was awakened by the sound of "animals" scraping the gravel and sand around the tent. Thinking they were muskrats, he fell asleep again. Some time later, he suddenly woke up in a cold sweat, unable to move or hear anything. He was able to open his eyes. 

As he did so, the sound began to return, but in a muted tone. Suddenly, the wind began to pick up, and the tent seemed to rise and fall. The sounds that had previously been outside returned, louder this time, as if dozens of animals were digging and scratching the ground around the tent. 

After 20 minutes, everything stopped and fell silent, there was complete silence. Then the whole tent and the surrounding area became brighter than daylight. A full and comprehensive white light entered the tent. It was completely blinding, and he still couldn't move. 

Then it quickly became dark again, as soon as the light went out, he was able to move again. He soon left the camp.
