In Eastern and Central Europe, there is a well known creature referred to as the "European yeti or European Bigfoot". But around here it is known as the "Treeskinner" or "Treetrembler". The cryptid is believed to be a Hominid type bipedal creature with a thin but muscular body, long limbs, shaggy and usually whitish-grey fur and a monkey like face. The skinny white creature is said to be two meters tall, mostly seen at dusk or midnight (sometimes around sunrise but almost never at daytime), and when seen it looks disoriented. Its howl, which has been heard on occasion, is said to sound like the thin scream of a woman turning into a death rattle.

September 13, 2018  /  adam benedict

This beast would hunt down women and children, sometimes the elderly. As if she knew what she could handle and what she could not. She avoided contact with young and adult men, knowing well that they were more powerful than her normal victims. She could dodge spears and firearms that were aimed her way. She could easily scale walls and dive into rivers to escape her enemies.
