Iowa Family's Encounter: Mysterious Creature with Hooves in Forest

If you're a fan of cryptids and the unexplained, then you're in for a treat. The Wolf Who Cried Cryptid, a YouTube channel dedicated to sharing stories of mysterious creatures, has posted a video that's sure to send shivers down your spine. In "Unsettling Encounters with Unknown Cryptids," the channel's host shares some of the creepiest and most fascinating stories they've come across, including encounters with a creature in Iowa that may be a wendigo or a wachugay, and a hunting trip in Pennsylvania that takes a turn for the worse. The first story comes from a young man in Iowa who believes he and his mother saw a creature that was either a skinwalker or a wendigo. They lived in a neighborhood surrounded by a forest, and one day while driving home, the mother saw a tall, gray-skinned creature with hooves for feet walking into the forest. She was frightened and believed she had seen a windigo. The son, who had heard stories about Skin Walkers on YouTube, was also on alert and felt paranoid while riding his bike near the hill where his mother had seen the creature. A few days later, he heard his dog barking at something in the darkness beyond the porch's light and saw shining eyes in the trees reflected by the porch's light. He quickly brought his dog inside and made sure all the doors and windows were locked and covered. Two months after this incident, he continued to feel paranoid and on high alert, especially when outside or in the forest. The second story comes from Pennsylvania, where a young man had two encounters with a being while on a hunting trip. On the first day, he and his father, grandfather, and brother heard heavy footsteps and smelled an awful smell that reminded him of meat that had been left outside to rot in the sun. The footsteps were too heavy to be a deer and couldn't have been a bear because they didn't see many out during the winter. The smell and the feeling of being watched made him pack up his things and head back to the cabin. Later that night, while lying in bed, he had a terrible dream that he was being chased by a deer that wasn't really a deer. The next day, he was out hunting again and heard his mother's voice call for him to come here, even though she had passed away two years prior. He ran out of those woods and never looked back. These stories are a reminder that the world is full of mysteries and unknown creatures that we may never fully understand. Whether you believe in skinwalkers, wendigos, or wachugays, there's no denying that these stories are both fascinating and terrifying.
