| Location: | Roudham, NORFOLK |
| Encounter: | "In the Spring of 1962 I was on leave from my unit in Aden. About 00:30 hours on a Monday I was returning from a visit to London driving along the then A11 across Roudham Heath near Thetford. As I got near the point where the Peddar's Way crossed the A11 I saw a huge Newfoundland dog coming from the left along the Path. [Map Ref. TL934871] I felt unable to do anything to avoid the dog. However there was no crash, instead the dog reappeared on my right continuing his journey. At this time I had never heard of 'Old Shuck'. But I knew the dog was not of this world. When I got home my mother got up to let me in and said that my hair was on end and my face as white as snow. When I told her what had happened, she said that I had seen 'Old Shuck'. Of two things I am certain, the dog was benign and not of the Devil. Also he had two eyes not one in the middle of his head. Since that time I have seen much of the other world and have been able to foresee family deaths and the illness of friends." |
