Maria Costa was on the street near the town hall. When she made ready to cross the road to go to the side of the cafe, something caught her attention. Some great creature moving in the shadows behind a closed shop. It then jumped right at her, as if on springs, he spread his Cape like great black wings.

Maria froze, too frightened to scream. Dark, menacing creature looms over her like a giant. Then it was gone. She described it as completely black, with eyes like balls of fire and height no less than 8 feet. The worst thing, it seemed to be some buzzing sound (as of a monstrous insect) that was making the creature.

Original news

Maria Costa was on Commercial Street near the Town Hall and she prepared to cross the road toward the coffee shop, something caught her eye. Some large creature was moving about in the shadows outside a closed up shop. It then jumped right at her as if were on springs, spreading its cape like vast black wings. Maria froze, too startled to scream. The dark, menacing presence loomed over her like a giant. Then it vanished. She described it as all black, with eyes like balls of fire and at least 8 ft tall. The most unsettling thing of all, it appeared to make a sort of buzzing sound, like a monstrous insect.
