I recently came across the following account:
This account took place in 2010. I was living in Hamilton, Montana with my current girlfriend. It was late at night and my friend and I would always go for a drive. We parked at an empty parking lot outside of a gym that was on the outskirts of town. My friend had his medical marijuana card and he would smoke while we talked about random sh*t (we worked together, workplace drama was usually the discussion). After we were done hanging out I started my car to head back into town. We started heading towards the outlet to take a right onto the main street. I was about 50 feet away from the outlet when I decided the mood called for some loud music (genre was rap and I can't, for the life of me, remember the song that was playing right at that moment). To give you an idea as to what our field of view was, the outlet had two white fences on each side that spanned the property. It was one of those fences that had two logs with spaces in between them so vision was partially blocked on the right and left side (granted it was pretty damn dark).
That is when sh*t hit the fan. Out of the corner of my eye I see what appeared to be a dusty brown ball of plastic or garbage that rolled into view from the other side of the right fence. We were driving closer as this was happening but as soon as I got a better look, I knew this was not a piece of garbage blowing in the wind. I immediately realized it was a winged flesh-like creature that appeared to have crash landed during flight. I thought my eyes were deceiving me and I immediately turned to my friend who let out one of the most blood curdling screams I have heard in my entire life. I kept looking at him and looking back at this "thing." My friend was so scared he flew his legs into the air (up against the passenger window and windshield) as if that would shield him from this creature we were approaching. I kept repeating, "WHAT IS THAT, WHAT IS THAT?" As soon as the creature came to its senses it planted its feet and took off flying in the opposite direction of my car. At this point I stopped the car and all I remember is heavy breathing from both my friend and I (from the adrenaline) as we watched the silhouette of this thing fly away. The wing-span on this creature was at LEAST 6-8 feet wide. It seemed to have webbing like a bat (no feathers). We watched it until it was not visible, which took a good while (Montana still has a decent amount of light pollution and we could see the contrast of this creature in the sky for 2-3 minutes before it disappeared).
I remember my friend told me, "Please just take me home." We took off and headed back into town. I just kept asking, "What was that, what was that?" I don't think there were more than a few words spoken between us at that point. I just kept asking, "What was that, what was that?" He would respond with, "I don't f*cking know man." I dropped him off. I went home and told my girlfriend who was laughing at how animated and serious I was when telling her what happened. The next day, I woke up and immediately called him. I asked him, "What did you see?" I wanted him to tell me first so that what I had to say did not influence him in his recollection of this creature. He told me, "It was a flesh-like creature, it was not a bird, there were no feathers." I asked him, "What color was it?" He told me, "Brown-ish and...." I said, "sort of grey?" He said, "OMG, yes."
I no longer talk to this friend as he slipped into a unfortunate issue with prescription pills. I wish we still had a friendship as I have wanted to talk to him about this event since it has happened. We both saw the exact same thing, we both nearly sh*t our pants. I am the type of person to laugh in the face of ghost/paranormal stuff. If I don't see it, I don't believe it. I still to this day cannot explain what I saw. I still get chills when thinking about my friends scream.The way I describe this thing is a gigantic bat/humanoid with wings. There was not one feather on this flying creature (I mention this because anyone I tell this story to tells me I probably saw a bird of some sort). I remember this creature being slightly hairy.
My theory as to why it was rolling around on the ground as if it crash landed out of the sky? I think my sub woofer/sound system might have messed with its navigation and that is another reason I feel it might have been a gigantic bat. This is by far one of the craziest stories I have to tell that I personally experienced. Can anyone help explain what I might have seen? Has anyone had similar experience with gigantic bat-like creatures?
Edit: It might be worth mentioning Rocky Mountain Labs is in Hamilton, MT. This is one of the highest security laboratories in the world. My ex-boss's ex-husband works there and the only thing she knew about this job was that he took care of the animals. The deadliest diseases are held in this lab and there are monkeys and other animals that are used for testing. SC

“This story still creeps me out till this day. Back in May 1st of 2016 my bestfriend and I went hiking for my birthday on Mount Lassen, California. We hiked up the backside of the mountain which, most people hiked the front, so there weren't many people and good walking trails up there. So we hiked on a game trail. About 45 minutes and mid way up into the hike, my best friend said that it sounded like something was walking behind us off the trail, but I did not hear it myself. But I did have the feeling like something was watching us from about 20 minutes into the hike, but didn’t say anything until he brought that to my attention.
We kept hiking up for another 10 minutes till we stopped for water. We both just had an overwhelming feeling like something was in the forest on the mountain with us. So we decided to turn around and make our way down. Right as we started walking, my friend had a rock hit his backpack which hit it hard. As well, we both were pretty freaked because we didn’t know where it came from. So we pick our pace up and go to the bottom as fast as we could, but right before we got to the bottom we heard a loud growl from some bushes 20 feet from us. I pulled my gun which was a 45 ACP 1911 and we slowly got away from that area.
After that, at the bottom, when we were about 45 feet from the car, we kept hearing 2 different whistling sounds going back and forth from the tree line. That’s when I remembered, that is something that Sasquatches do, Itself Known as was the rock that hit my buddy. So we sat there for 20 minutes in the car watching the tree line to see if anything happened or if we would have a sighting, but nothing happened. We decided to leave and head home. But right as we start to drive away a nice sized rock hit the hood of my car which left a little dent and scratch.
That’s my first interaction with a Sasquatch and hope to have another one. I’m not gonna go out looking like other people because that’s how you end up like a Missing 411 case or something strange happening to you. I’ll just let it happen naturally because that’s when people have the best sightings or encounters.” - Aubrey Sweatt
