Interesting I've never actually heard of these and here I thought I was relatively well-versed in cryptids. Alot of this does seem to line up which on the one hand brings me a bit of relief knowing that maybe someone has information on these things, but on the other it terrifies me with the thought that more may be out there. The idea of a predator for humanity which can alter it's appearance and mimic voices seems to explain a lot of this, but I can't help but feel it's only part of the puzzle. Do Fleshgaits normally have mind-altering capabilities like that? What really terrifies me is that this thing- whatever it was didn't even have to touch me to discombobulate me like that. It's like me just being near it fucked with my mental faculties to a level I've never felt before. Maybe it was just some result of tremendous fear that made me feel that way, but it just felt so wrong, and that's the only word I can think to describe it with.
