Ok I’m legit freaking the fuck out right now and need somebody to tell me I’m just tired and seeing shit.

>Be me
>northern Alabama fag, right on the edge of the Bankhead Forest
>took the wife + rug-rats down to Gulf Shores for a long-ass weekend
>left early Friday morning
>didn’t get back home until 8:00 Monday morning
>house looked fine, no busted windows, nothing stolen
>decide to scrub through the patio CCTV just in case some tweaker snooped around while we were gone
>01:13 AM timestamp flicks past and my stomach drops

Pic related (screenshot from the cam): there’s this pale, spindly thing trotting past the tree line where the floodlight doesn’t quite reach. Four legs, but the proportions are wrong. Looks like a greyhound that got stretched on a medieval torture rack. No collar reflection, no eye-glint. It just glides across the frame and melts back into the treeline like it owns the damn place.

Couple details that make me think this isn’t just a stray:
No paw prints in the dew when I checked the mulch this morning ground ought to be soft after last night’s storm.
Neighbor’s outdoor cat hasn’t shown for breakfast; wife says she hasn’t seen him either since we got home.

I’ve heard stories my whole life about the Alabama White Thang big pale critter, stinks like roadkill, screams like a woman, prowls the hill country after midnight. Always figured it was booze + campfire bullshit. Now I’m not so sure.

>what do
>kids are already spooked because the dog refuses to go near the back door
>wife says call animal control but lmao like they’ll believe this shit
>part of me wants to sit outside tonight with the .30-30 >part of me remembers every “don’t go into the woods at night” post on this cesspit

Anybody here in North Bama seen something like this? Is there a less “shoot it and hope” plan? Should I bait a trail cam with deer guts or is that begging for trouble? I swear if this thing comes up on the porch while the kids are asleep I’m gonna lose my god-damn mind.

stop with the A.I. generated image, you fool no one retard

Weird how it just happened to be caught in the one dark spot between the trees

I have only used ai like 2 times. Have no idea how to do that.

Also whenever I see ai images they are low quality and easily out of place looking. This is just normal cctv shots from my motion sensing camera.

I agree it’s pretty convenient. But seriously who would I call about this?

always thought the bigfoot depictions were pop culture bs. most eyewitnesses say its more catlike or otherwise quadrupedal which squares with your picture. ofc I see nothing which convinces me this picture (and other sightings) isn't just a bobcat.

if it is a white thang I've never heard a story of them being actively malicious. odds are they're as eager to avoid human interference as any other carnivore of that size. I would thoroughly inspect the areas where you saw it for anything that signals intelligence/communication, symbols, rearranged objects, patterns in scratching or tracks etc. whether you find that or not it's a good excuse to test readiness on your spiritual and physical defenses, but I doubt staying up all night with the gun will do anything but leave you miserable tomorrow.

and for the love of god, please don't shoot a wild mysterious woodland spirit just because you read too many le blood and copper stories. even if it is intelligent that does not mean its hostile, but you definitely don't want to piss it off, and besides we have so few real mysteries left.

you need new prompt, this look A.I. asf

It's just your average Coosa County resident (i.e. meth head).

>>40753748 (OP)
If this is all you have, OP, I'm not sure what you want us to do for you. This image could be anything, a dog, a coyote, a large cat, and I agree with the others that there's something AI about the whole thing. Do you have video?

I understand. The cctv camera I have is cheap and only starts recording once it detects movement. It snaps images rather than actually getting photos. I have another still of the creature moving away but it’s not as good as the first which is why I didn’t post. I never adjusted the shutter speed so it takes like 1 image every two seconds.

>>40753748 (OP)
Please don't shoot an innocent dog or something.

>>40753748 (OP)
What kind of cctv do you have?

>>40756042
This piece of trash

>>40755782
hey this is the same nigga from your previous thread but from a different camera?

>>40753748 (OP)
Lol. Lmao. Took me a total of one minute.

>>40753748 (OP)
Look guys I found another one! White thongs are everywhere!!!

>>40753748 (OP)
Would.

Give me the details and I'll come lame and fuck it.

Invest in ring cameras. Even those are better than this, but heads up Amazon does store all the footage and will give it to authorities. So maybe manually turn it off before shooting at anything.

I keep ring on my doors because of the weird people side of spooky happenings and decided I wanted evidence the next time someone comes knocking at three am or stealing from my fruit trees in my residential neighborhood.

This looks like you just photoshopped my camera image…
