I live in a house in the country near El Dorado, Texas.

I woke up one morning and looked out my bedroom window toward my chicken coop, and I saw a figure standing there.

Judging by the height of the coop, the creature was at least seven feet tall.

The only way to describe it is that it looked like a Chewbacca, the way its hair flowed and the fact that you couldn't see a neck.

Well, I rubbed my eyes several times, but it was still there.

It was like it wanted me to see it. It wanted to be

seen. It just stood there looking at the house. Finally, I looked away, and when I looked back again,

it was gone. I never said anything for a while. Although I never saw it again, I would carry my pistol if I went outside after dark.

After that, we would hear strange sounds at night, but we never saw anything again.

Now, my friend had to run in with a dog man, but that was months later. We had a tracker come in

to look around, but he found nothing, or at least nothing that he would admit to.

I told my family, and they gave me the strangest looks.

Some of them think I should quit listening to shows like yours.

They think I'm seeing things.

Well, these stories are great.

People are seeing things, and I'm just so glad you sent this in.

It was a short little story, but it was great.

In 1999, I was a tradesman working on an apartment complex that was being built in my town.

I operated my own company, and I was working after the bulk of the trades

had left for the day. I was finishing my task in one unit and I was gathering my tools to do the

same thing in the neighboring unit and I was moving quickly to take advantage of the daylight.

Out of the corner of my eye I I called a figure outside the window.
