People want to know what happen next after we three saw the creature in the swamp. After climbing the hill of rusty cans, we ran all the way back home. We lived beside my Grandmother. She was a fine lady, spent all her life working in the only Cotton Mill in the town of Ware Shoals, South Carolina…the Regal Mill. The mill is now gone. The only evidence of its existence now is a monument to the man who built the entire town, houses, stores and so forth. Most of the brick homes look alike. Moving on, when we reached Gram’s home, she was setting in an old rocking chair on the back porch. After seeing us all sweaty and beat red from fright, she asks “what is wrong with you boys? “Grandmother, we saw a monster near the swamps edge!” We were still in shock from seeing the hairy monster. “Tell me what you saw.” I was the oldest. So I took over the conversation. She did not believe my words. So, she decided to take a look for herself. She had no weapon so, of all things to defend us, she grabbed a pitchfork from the barn and then we followed a trail that leads to a creek that flows through the swampy area. She was up front; we follow like ducks in a row. Down the hill she went looking for the creature, or signs. Just like people do today, she discovered its tracks. “These tracks are made by a person, very large man. He must have been playing a trick on you.” I followed them down a trail that was heavy trotted by other animals. It left very large tracks in the soft wet, decayed leaves. My Grandmother was behind me now. What I saw made all of us stop. I ask the question, “What happen to its foot prints? They just disappeared; flew away.” After that day, I always wondered, “Where did it go?” Those years were formative years. I was always in the right place at the wrong time, or the wrong place at the right time, all depends on how you look at the situation. In mentioning that, there are many stories I would like to tell. I need to tell people about things that happened through the years that fueled my interest in phenomena. That’s what they call something when a person doesn’t know the answers. I know this sounds crazy, I believe these creatures are humanoids; not from Earth.
