Monster with two glowing eyes, heat began to fill chalet, smell of sulphur, hammering on doors and walls, walking on roof.
Monster seen. An unidentified object at close range and its occupants were observed by five male witnesses at a mountain (Linares). A banging sound was heard. One red-eyed monster was seen.
Five young people in a mountain chalet were photographing its rooms when they heard a deep and powerful breathing sound outside. They went out but saw nothing, and the sound ceased. They went to bed. At 0500A Manuel Linares was awakened by noises; he woke the others. All heard the heavy breathing again, together with a very loud squealing noise. 3 of the party looked out the window, and saw, standing by a tree in the garden, "something" bigger than the tree, unclear in outline, "as though wrapped up in a black blanket," with two bright lights where the eyes would be. The witnesses got axes and machetes and went out into the garden, but the thing was gone. After this a terrific heat began to invade the chalet, together with a smell of sulfur. Someone outside began to hammer on the doors and walls. At 0900A they again heard the hammering, this time on the roof, and heard something walking on the roof. But when they got up on the roof there was nothing to be seen.
