    It Got Back Up

    It Got Back Up Late one night in rural North Carolina, Justin was driving his friend home from work when they made a dangerous decision just for fun — turning off the headlights and driving only by the light of the moon. The backroads were nearly pitch black, with only silver moonlight cutting through the trees, when something suddenly ran into the road directly in front of them.The impact shook the vehicle. At first, Justin believed they had hit a large animal… until he looked into the rearview mirror. Slowly standing up in the middle of the road was a massive upright creature. Frozen in disbelief, Justin watched as it examined its injured hand beneath the glow of the brake lights. What he saw didn’t resemble any normal animal. The creature appeared huge, muscular, canine-like… something far closer to the legends of the Dogman.Tonight, Justin joins Dano to share the chilling details of the encounter that has stayed with him ever since — a terrifying moment on a moonlit North Carolina road that neither of them can explain.

Ephraim during the 2017 opening day of deer season.
