Something Strange Is Lurking in Portage Lakes State Park, Ohio

Over the past three years, there have been three separate encounters with a strange, pale humanoid creature at Portage Lakes State Park in New Franklin, Ohio. I was present during two of these incidents, and several other people have witnessed the creature as well. I've put together a short report covering all three encounters, including eyewitness accounts and illustrations. I'm curious if anyone else in the area has seen or heard of anything similar.

Child sees cryptid, Need help identifying please

My 11 year old son saw something on our side yard. He has been adamant about what he saw for over 3 weeks now. Can you please help identify? He drew a picture of what it looked like, it was 4pm(ish) in the bay area, California.

Only tonight did I show him a chart, and he circled what it looked like, combined. The odd thing- It matches his drawing.

Please no hateful comments.

See pictures.

Thank you!!

wanted help finding out a cryptid i encountered

it was some sort of grey-ish, skinny humanoid. its skin looked like it had been burnt several times.. gray like ash. it was on all fours, eating something i couldn't see.. not something i'd want to see. i couldn't see much of it since it was farther out in the trees from where i was. i can't remember much after that since my brain always tries to make me forget memories that leave me with bad feelings like that. this encounter happened in southern ontario, canada.

i decided to ask this subreddit since this is the dedicated sub for cryptids. i'm not someone who knows everything bout cryptids that much, so i'm just curious if anyone here has an idea.

edit as of 2 hours after this was posted: i remember 2 more details from the encounter.

it made some sort of clicking noise.. and it had no tail.. i got nothin other than that.

I seen a Creature of some sorts in Wisconsin Dells located by the Highway that goes through the RockyArbor State Park.

I was driving to go pick up an order from Applebees I was in a I believe late 90s Chrysler Sebring convertible. I had the top down, it was during the end of sunset so I figure it would be a pretty ride. It was darker than I thought it would be when I got to the side of the highway going towards Wi Dells. So the camping side of the park and trails would be on my right and the side that’s not open to public on the left. Driving in there is a dirt road entrance to the private side I’ve seen cops park there from time to time. But standing there clear as day was a large creature 9-12 feet I’m guessing, with legs that looked like the back legs of a dog but a huge chest and arms like a human and a dogs face with bright yellow eyes. I maid eye contact with it I knew it knew I seen it. It didn’t move I floored it and called my mom instantly. I’ve never found anyone who has seen this creature or has heard about anything like this in that area. I sometimes feel like I can feel its presence or that it knows who I am. I lived close to there my whole life. Has anyone else experienced a creature like this? Or heard of one?
