Be careful on a full moon

Especially if you're in the woods.  

This happened back in 2019.  I had gone on a trip to Arizona to visit a friend in Phoenix and decided last minute to make a trip to Sedona.  If you've never been it's what you would picture a sci-fi alien backdrop in a movie to look like, otherworldly and beautiful.  I enjoyed my time there hiking and investigating local lore in the area about extraterrestrials, and I met some interesting people as a result.  One woman I met in particular was from California.  She and I got to talking and she shared with me a supernatural experience she had.  She was in Idyllwild California at the time.  She and her husband had been invited to a full moon festival there.  Basically, it was a group of free-spirited people that love nature and were hippie-like.  They even had a drum circle.  After the celebration was over, she headed back to a nearby log cabin in the forest that she and her husband had rented for the night.  Everything was fine and they were getting ready for bed, the lights were out so the only lighting they had was from the full moon.  As they got comfortable in bed, they saw a tall, massive well-defined shadow pass their window.  Worried that it might be a bear, her husband got out of bed to check through the window in the front room.  This was a very simple log cabin with a front room, small kitchen area, bathroom and bedroom.  So, it wasn't very big.  Looking out the window he wasn't able to see anything, so he assumed it must be a bear that maybe had smelled the trash outside or had just wandered too close to their cabin.  As soon as he went back to the bedroom, this large animal or whatever it was, started body slamming into their front door.  This creature was so strong that it was shaking the entire cabin.  They were terrified because they were not only secluded in the middle of the woods late at night, but also without any cellphone reception or landline.  So, the best idea they could come up with was to barricade the front door with whatever they could find, which ended up being a dresser among other things.  They also barricaded their bedroom door, but they couldn't sleep the whole night, instead they stayed up in fear because whatever this thing was, was intentionally now stalking them.  It circled their cabin the whole night.  Finally, when morning came, they booked it out of there as fast as they could, but not before seeing the long deep gashes in the wood of the cabin, like someone had raked huge claws in the wood around the perimeter of the cabin. I didn't hear about stories of dogman until I moved to Kentucky, but I really believe that she and her husband may have encountered one that night.
