The Cryptids of Grovely Woods

DATE: 2013 (exact date of sighting not known)Witness statement: Keisha: "Recently, I was out riding in Grovely Woods Salisbury, Wiltshire. It was just about getting dark, dusk. I was on my horse, and my mum was walking along beside me. About fifty meters ahead of us, there was a very tall, large dark Figure, I thought it was way too big to be a person, around perhaps two and a half to three meters tall (though we were relatively far away, like I said, around fifty meters, perhaps a bit less,)so I am not entirely sure. But when this creature moved, it moved with speed that was incredibly inhuman like, and moved with a sort of loping stride.

When we were at the spot where I'd seen it run off, I noticed that there was no way a human could have escaped that fast, especially through the trees, since it was quite thick there, unfortunately I did not have time to investigate further, since my mum was a little freaked out and wanted to get away from the area, she had told me earlier on in the ride that she had found half a deer (she said it had been 'ripped to shreds,') a few days ago, though it was gone when we were at where she said it was. Would a Bigfoot go for something like a deer? The strange thing is, my horse didn't spook, which is strange, since he is generally quite a nervous animal, could this still have been a Bigfoot if my horse didn't react? Keesha, Salisbury."

An Upright Impossible Thing was reported to me in 2018 and the report came in from a mother and daughter who stopped to have a cigarette and stretch their legs when they encountered two very unusual creatures cross a field in front of them.

The Witness said: “We realised there were two really big "figures" in a faraway field that were standing upright and striding along, quite fast together, one was light brown the other one was darker, they were moving at a fast pace away from us. We both were so shocked and we keep asking each other if we both definitely saw that.

The two huge "figures" walked out in front of the faraway bushes, if they hadn't moved we would never have seen them. They walked from behind the bush and were heading it looked like to the next clump of trees.  It felt like they were in our line of sight for a good minute or so before they moved behind another bush in the field and we couldn't see them again after they reached the tree cover, we looked for a while but they didn't come back this way?

Further notes: Historic reference to Wildman near Salisbury - According to the Paranormal Database a wild man who lived in the woods near Salisbury was shot at when he attacked and tried to kidnap a local farmer's wife in 1877. The creature escaped into the dense woodland and was never seen again.
