The main witness (mother) who lived in an isolated horse farm was driving her daughters to the entrance to the farm to wait for the school bus. The 17yr old daughter sat on the backseat, but inclined between the two front seats in order to participate in the conversation while the 16yr old daughter sat on the front passenger seat. The radio was on. Upon arriving to the main road the mother stopped the car but the left the radio on. Suddenly the rear of the car began to bounce up and down at least 4-5 times, this lasted about 6 seconds. A very loud noise was heard, described as a very intense “vacuum type” sound that was definitely deafening. While the car was bouncing up and down the witnesses heard a noise resembling a metal plate being violently twisted to produce a sound resembling “thunder”. This singular appeared to emanate from the rear bumper and then from the backseat itself. The 16-year old girl sitting at the front passenger seat reported seeing an “arm” that was banging on the window behind the driver’s seat. Terrified the mother turned off the radio and pushed on the brakes and turned on the car in the hope of seeing anything with the reddish brake lights, however none of them see anything behind the car. At this point the mother drove the car forward and turned around. As she did this she claims to have seen two huge “yellow-cinnamon phosphorescent eyes at about 100ft away in between some pine trees. She thought the eyes were at an above average height from the ground and were staring directly at the vehicle (a Toyota) without blinking. Later upon examining the vehicle no damage was found. The wild deer and geese who had disappeared from the area on the night of the first returned 2 days later after the incident.
