The Beverley Giant

This report comes from Beverley in the East Riding area of Yorkshire. Scott Wigglesworth contacted the Gralien Report to tell of something his mother and a dog walker had seen while she was returning home from her cleaning job. Scott gave the following testimony:

 

A few nights ago I had a phone call from my mum, she lives in a town about 6 miles from my partner and I. When I answered I could tell she was excited and she exclaimed “Scott, you’re never going to believe this!”, a phrase that, within our family at least, doesn’t usually provoke much of a reaction due to the frequency of odd events that we’ve experienced over the years.

She continued “…I just drove home from work and as I turned into the road off the roundabout I saw this…thing! It was huge!”. I stopped her there and asked “A thing? What kind of thing?”. She told me that as she had turned the corner off the mini roundabout that feeds traffic into he housing estate that she lives in, my home through my teens and early twenties, her headlights caught the back of a large figure, its hunched back and stubby neck with what was assumed to be a head was level with the canopy roofing at the front of the houses as it walked away, literally just sauntering, down the residential street. It was about 9pm and she had just finished her cleaning job at a local Estate Agents office in the town centre. It was completely dark by now and cold. Further to its stature she explained that it was broad and had a lumbering stride. I was intrigued to say the very least, so I asked “Well, where you alone? Did anyone else see it!?”. My mum immediately jumped into another excited round of explanation, she said “Oh no, no, there was a man walking his dog, he ran over to the car window and the dog was cowering behind my car!”. She wound down the window and the man asked “Can you see that!? What the hell is that!?”. He went on to say that he had to walk that way to get back to his house which they could see from their position; needless to say, the dog got a longer walk that night as he turned and walked the opposite direction. By now they could see the thing had walked on and was now nowhere to be seen. They both agreed that whatever it was looked to be approximately 9 feet tall and wearing either a cloak or a long coat.

 

The report from Scott's mother doesn't mention hair but could the description of it wearing a cloak or long coat have been hair which she could not quite get a good look of in the dark? 

 

Is this yet another report of a British Bigfoot-like creature? If so, it is one of the tallest yet reported.
