 It threw what it had in its hand (a Snake), it flew a few feet above us and a good long way back up the road, then it turned and ran with otherworldly speed. This all happened very fast, I could not say how fast but from the time I stopped till it was up and gone was not long at all.

The thing was I would say between eight to ten feet tall, three and a half to four feet wide at the chest and shoulders. It had a large head with dark eyes either dark brown or black, a big flat nose and the face was a little lighter brown than the body. It was not black as I first thought but a dark brown almost black and its fur or hair was around four inches long. It looked like a guy who spends all his time in the gym. It had fists around the size of a canned ham, I say this because one hand was closed in to a fist and had something in it. ...it roared at me so loud and deep I could feel its vibration, like a teen's car radio. 

I was driving to go fishing with my son, at a local fishing spot. ...As I topped a hill and a slight bend I spotted a big black bear in the road. I stopped because bear in the area are rare. ...Then very quickly the bear stood and turned toward us and to my shock it was not a bear at all. It was a huge thing not a bear. 

One night a woman who had too much to drink decided to jump from the balcony to the pool below... and she didn't make it.  Her ghost has been reported on that balcony.

The ghost of a small boy who died of leukemia while staying at the hotel has been seen bouncing a ball.
