Need Insight On An Experience, What creature is this? Options

Hello everyone.

A couple of years ago myself and two of my friends were in a graveyard at about 2 oclock in the morning. Walking through in almost pitch black something made me look over for some reason. I looked over and there was a creature sitting on top of a tombstone. It looked as though it had the head of an owl, but it had large wings wrapped around it such as a bat might have. It's beak was hooked downward as well. It was moving it's head around a little. While i pointed this out to my friends, we stood there and watched for a good ten minutes. Then all of a sudden there was a loud BOOM as if something incredibly heavy had fallen beside me, although nothing was visible. Then when we looked back for the creature it was gone, and my friends started running. haha.

Anyway, I know that this creature was nothing like anything I've seen before, and it seemed like maybe it had created this large crash beside me so that we would take our eyes off of it, so that we would not see where it went, or how it disappeared. There was nothing visible that had fallen to create this crash, and it felt and heard like it was directly beside me.

Has anyone experienced a creature like this or read/heard anything about it?

no I wasn't around cornwall, this was in Ohio. I highly doubt it was anything like the owlman thing, because it wasn't any bigger than a hawk and it was fairly close to me for a decent amount of time.


Thanks for your insight Vagrant. I appreciate it. Pretty interesting hypothesis, especially the quantum theory aspect.

We've been back to that spot a million times at the same time of night in hopes of spotting it again. No such luck though.


If anyone else has anything to say please go ahead.
