The Scawby Wildman & The Thing at the Brick Works
I was recently contacted by a gentleman named Steve who is from the Lincolnshire area who wanted to share two experiences that he had over the span of 25 years. Steve chatted with me in a private call and he was kind enough to allow me to tape our conversation. He is happy for me to share his interview and his experiences with you all. Steve was able to sketch the creature he saw in 1994. Steve described the creature he saw as a Wildman.
The creature Steve saw was standing between a pond in the field and the road. There is a drainage ditch that leads to and from the area.
In the same area in 2019 Steve experienced something strange on the same stretch of road as he saw a dark figure move behind a brick building in the cemetery. In tonight's interview with Steve he explained both events that happened close to station road. Steve: “It was Sunday 17th July 1994 when I saw the strange wildman creature. I am a DJ and ex radio host and I consider myself a very confident person. This event is one I struggle to explain. I was hosting a disco that night at the Hibaldstow club and I remember it was a really warm night.
Everything went as normal and it was after packing up and leaving that things went strange. I drove on to the B1207 road as that was the direction of home. I made it just past the roundabout where the cement works sits when I saw something move out of the corner of my eye. It was a figure stooped in the road examining something in the road way. Then I saw it walk out onto the road. It then crossed the road and went off into the field. It was going left to right across the road.
My first thought was that there must have been somebody injured in an accident laying out on the road and that's why this figure was stooped looking over the road. And then I saw it was covered in hair, matted bedraggled hair. I couldn't see its legs as it stepped out into the road. I wouldn't say it was hugely tall. More like 61/2 foot tall. What was huge was the bulk of the body. I would describe it's build as almost like a bodybuilder. And I am almost certain it was holding something in its right hand. I couldn't see completely as it was holding its hand behind its back as it walked.
Where the figure was standing there is a ditch that runs alongside the fields. It stepped down into the ditch and was at another eye level now as it was much lower than the road. The red light at the back of my car then shone on the fur on the left hand side of its face. It seemed to be looking back at me as I moved past it and caught it in the red glow of my lights.
Its face was shiny and hairless. I would say it had almost a gleam to it. It was not like human skin. The hair was matted and unkempt down its back. It had remnants within it like grass and straw. I didn't see any ears and the mouth on this creature was much lower than ours. I was just bewildered, almost terrified trying to make sense of what I was seeing. That was it for me, I put my foot down and drove home. I was still living with my parents at the time and I just remember going home, and going up to bed. I lay there for ages revisiting what I had just seen in my head. I was completely puzzled. For a really long time I could not go back there. Now luckily it doesn’t bother me. I can drive past the area. Thankfully for all I remember what happened vividly each time I pass here. It doesn't hold the fear value that it used to. As I need to make this journey everyday, I can say that I am happy to do so now. It was very different back in 1994.”
