A New Jersey couple were understandably unnerved when what may have been a soaking wet Sasquatch bounded across the road in front of their car. The unsettling sighting, reported to the Bigfoot Field Research Organization (BFRO), occurred on the evening of October 11th as witness Keyara Klawitter and her family were driving near the community of Batsto. "I became terrified in a matter of seconds," she later recalled, when they rounded a bend in the road and saw a "massive figure" illuminated by their high beams.
Slowing down as they approached the eerie interloper, she observed a bipedal figure standing approximately 8 feet tall, "covered in jet-black fur," and seemingly "soaking wet." Managing to get a fairly good look at the creature, she marveled that it sported "human-like hands and unusually long arms." As they got closer to the suspected Sasquatch, the figure swiftly moved across the road in a manner she likened to "gliding," and vanished into the woods.
Reeling from the fleeing sighting, Klawitter asked her husband if he saw the same thing that she did, and he confirmed her account of the bipedal creature that had just crossed in front of their car. Remarkably, upon returning home, the couple actually reported their wild sighting to the New Jersey State Police, which referred them to the BFRO. Looking back on the experience, Klawitter offered a refrain often heard from witnesses to high strangeness, musing, "I saw this giant creature with my own eyes. We know what we saw." To that end, what do you think the couple encountered that rainy October night? Weigh in with your thoughts at the C2C Facebook page.
