I'll never forget those eyes...


Skunkape encounters are not very common. Not like Bigfoot. But when you have one, it will always weigh heavy on your mind...

From the book: "Encounters With the Strange and Unexplained" by Matt Hoyle.

Something to watch over me

"Some friends and I were on a camping trip here in Lakeland in '86. One evening at about 2 a.m. I was woken by a crashing sound in the trees right behind my tent. I opened the front flap but couldn't see anything so I unzipped the back and saw two red eyes, about four inches apart, staring back at me from seven feet above the ground. Then I smelled that smell—like a skunk. I'd heard about the Swamp Ape before but this was the first time I'd ever seen it. After watching the camp for about twenty minutes it turned to walk away. I'll never forget those eyes."
