Initial data
A group of about 10 young people sat and chatted in a field.
About 45 minutes later, will jumped to his feet, slapping his head and saying there was a bee in his hair. He looked absolutely terrified. Then a girl named Dorothy and another witness saw a tall, thin figure in a hat “dancing " behind him.
Will later said it was as if a terrifyingly loud buzzing was coming through the top of his head. However, only Rachel heard a buzzing sound.
Partially satisfied that they had stumbled upon a bee nest, they retreated a short distance.
As they moved, Dorothy and the same witness saw the outline of a ring in the grass that surrounded the spot where they were sitting. Eventually it started to rain, and the group headed for Rachel's house.
As they were leaving, one of the boys turned and saw the same thin black figure coming through the gap in the trees to where they were sitting.
Later, sitting in Rachel's bedroom, one of the guys looked at will, who was reading, and saw a shapeless black BLOB fall out of his hair onto the bed. He was the only one who saw it.
A few seconds later, a black figure whizzed across the room. The main movement went from the lower left to the upper right and became larger during the movement and caused great consternation among those present. In total, about four people saw it.
Later, the girls slept together in the same room. Apparently, Rachel and Dorothy had seen a black smudge on the curtains during the night.
One of the men awoke to see a thin black figure silhouetted against the closet door.
